Is GSP middleweight? I don't see him bulking up to fight Silva, GSPs weight class is pretty challenging as is. Machida vs Silva would be a great fight. Henderson, I don't know he may not have that speed the Silva has, I think skills in terms of ground game, Henderson is the man no doubt but we'll see.

That was a waste of my 50 bucks. The first 4 fights were a joke! Not sure where Forrest mind was, but he didn't even show up. Sylva again showed class, at one point it was like he was wondering why Forrest wasn't fighting back. He could have ended him from that first punch when he let him get back up.

a big wrestler doesnt have a chance with silva

not a chance. I think it was K1, he went against a massive dude and silva just kicked his legs til he couldnt even walk or grab silva. silve then knocked his legs out and pounded him from the top. They all talked about a wrestler taking silva out and he pounded him like he did ole Forrest. Its gonna havta to be an ice man over the top hook or a Lesner tackle then ground n pound. Dont know, Silva is very dedicated in what he does. Damn still pissed Forrest didnt win.

x2 on Machida and Silva. that fight will happen and will be sweet.

GSP???? totally different weight class, couldnt even put them together. b a good fight if silva was 170-5. but he is not and it would be a tko for silva

Who else is gonna beat Silva?? A Striker?? Don't think so.

Machida and Silva won't fight they are friends and training partners, both have said they will not fight.

They have talked about GSP moving up and fighting silva for quite awhile now both have stated they would like to fight.

they both gonna to be at the top so whether or not they dont want to fight its inevitalbe... peeps would be pissed if they they turned the offer down to fight, when they time comes. they can say that now, because its at least a year away before they would even be considered for a matchup.

not feasable for gsp to come up. dont get me wrong, he is sweet at middleweight, but doubt his ability to add 30lbs and still be who he is...

How can you guys say a waste? to 2 main events were a very impressive display of MMA at it's best... Silva is just too good... if he stays in 205 chances are he will still dominate... BJ Penn is undoubtedly the greatest fighter at 155. It is not too common to see BJ use his BJJ but when the Gracies name him "The Prodigy" that is really saying something. The undercard bouts were just that an undercard...

dang im really disappointed to hear that lyota wont fight silva i figured that would be the only real test for both of them but i guess that isnt going to happen. and silva gsp are you serious :spit: gsp having a chance :spit: silva being tested :spit: give me a break guys you seen what he does to a larger opponent not much larger but larger if gsp could even put a good 15 lb of muscle on him it wouldnt be enough for a silva coming in the night of the fight at 200-210 and skill level sorry but gsp is still by far out classed by silva. i didnt really like silva but you have to respect his skill he is awesome.
