Too lazy to put up full results.

Spider dominated Hendo, really thought it was gonna go the other way and see Dan wrestle him to the ground and GNP for a win. With this win, Silva has just ran through the 185 division, no one really left for him to fight. Now does he move up to 205, or does someone from 205 move down to challenge him? Id maybe like to see Wanderei move down, that would be a great fight.


And they announced tonight Brock Lesnar vs Mark Coleman. Yes Mark Coleman that fought for UFC when Jesus was around. Its gonna be in August in Minnesota. I dont see this going longer than 2 rounds to be honest. Brock is too strong and fast. My guess would be a few takedowns, maybe a highlight reel slam and then a brutal GNP for victory.

Nobody is beating Anderson Silva. Dude has the best striking in the game, an iron chin and his jiu jitsu isn't too shabby as we saw tonight. Best p4p in the world easily.

It's interesting watching the angles he throws (and connects) from. He throws shots that you wouldn't think would land with any kind of force but they do.

My friend and me were actually kind of sad that Silva won. Now there's nothing left. I don't think his frame is meant to move up to 205 and anyone moving down will get wrecked.
All that I would want to see is GSP-Silva. Even if they went at it as a exhibition at two different classes.

silvas a bad mofo. i've been studyin his style cuz i jus couldn't fathom how a thin dude like that can jus dominate. but he is VERY accurate with his strikes, that's a plus. plus he has long fuccin arms and legs which benefits him in his standing game (of course the reach factor), plus when he's down, either on top (his legs help anchor his body to avoid gettin flipped on his bacc), or when he's on the bottom in guard (cuz one slip from his opponent will get the opponent caught up in some kinda submission, cuz silvas arms will tangle u). i also notice, he's not afraid to take a punch. when someone attaccs, he counters almost immediately, with accuracy. his long legs also help him when his opponent is goin for the takedown. but he is definitely an interesting fighter. i also would like to see him fight wanderlei silva. didn't henderson beat silva already tho? fold.

Another thing that was never really tested before was Silva's chin. He took 3 or 4 shots from Hendo and didn't even flinch before that last takedown.
He's just on a completely different level from everyone else, it's official.

Your tripping. Silva has been known to have an awesome chin. I've seen Silva take shots CLEAN on the chin and not flinch. Dude has an iron chin. In his fight with Jorge Rivera he let him hit him with free shots kind of like in the very first Kimbo fight and he didn't flinch. I've seen Silva spar with big nog in a boxing match with no head gear. Dude definitely can take a punch.

That first round had me worried, but goddamn....Anderson is a beast.

On his post fight interview on UFC.com he was taking about fighting the 185lbs Boxing champ, cuz the boxing folks are hating on MMA, saying it isnt technical, etc....

Anderson would never make it at the top in boxing just like the top 185lbers in boxing wouldn't fuck with him in mma. They're different games and hopefully Silva doesn't make the jump.

wtf is 185 in boxing? 175 is light Heavyweight, 200 is Cruiserweight, right?

So 175 Bernard Hopkins is the recognized champ, B-hop would school him in boxing. Maybe he can go after Roy Jones, but he has no belts.

David Haye is the Cruiserweight champ, I haven't seen much of him but the Cruiserweight division I know is the weakest division, so he might have success here but the question is can he put that kind of weight on and still be successful. My guess is no.

But props to him if he tries. If any MMA fighter could be successful in boxing it's probably him since he's a great boxer and has boxed professionally before.

There's a difference between the guys he boxed and the top of the mountain guys. I wouldn't say CW is a weak division at all. Guys like Haye, Cunningham, Mormeck etc. would all take out Silva.

He'd get smoked by either Hopkins or Calzaghe and guys like Chad Dawson.

Maybe I came off in the wrong way, but I agree he would get smoked in either division. I think he could have some success in boxing, if matched properly, but certainly not against any of the belt holders.

It's funny though this is just like the p4p king in boxing, mayweather, talkin bout going into the mma. And I said the same thing then- if trained right I'm sure floyd could beat a few people, but couldn't beat the best.

idk what it is about these top guys that thinking making a switch would be that easy. It takes years and years to perfect one sport, what makes them think they could switch and be successful? Ego.

Anderson has had a couple pro boxing fights, but I really don't want him to fight outside the sport because I honestly don't care. 2 different sports. I'd rather see Anderson Silva vs Georges St. Pierre or Anderson Silva vs Rampage Jackson!

silva the man the only fight out there is okami
Both silva and okami have something to resolve and that fight needs to happen and okami deserves a title shot especialy after the way he koed tanner. But knowing the ufc that fight will never happen because they have never let two non americans fight for the title.
