#1 Contender spot for the MW Belt

[Daddywalrus**]

No one in the UFC stands a chance against Silva atm. Cung Le/Mousasi/Manhouf MAYBE

silva is far from unbeatable, but he is good, can't deny that. i can see maia doing it if it goes to the ground and i think his standup has improved enough to SURVIVE (not KO, or even give him trouble...just survive) long enough to get it to the ground and then we see where it goes from there. and the ufc will give him easy, fights and make him look like the P4P #1 until his last fight then he will get someone who can beat him, and then they can be promoted as the p4p #1, that is the genius to marketing replce silva with the next guy.

Agreed, a rematch has the potential to go differently, but in fairness would be a tough fight for the UFC to sell. This can/will happen in 2010 I think
but Marquardt's going to have to wait, even if we all know he'd murder everyone else in the division not named Anderson.

I was waiting for someone to bring his name up. The UFC would love to set up a Bisping Anderson fight if they both keep winning and bringing in the dollars. I hope Okami gets the next shot though.

However after Leites either Okami as revenge match or Maia would be acceptable perhaps Marquadt but i really dont see a return match being too much different.

Mousasi I can see, but the others....nah.

And who do you see taking home the MW belt on April 18th?

Okomi deserves it!

But I also gotta tell you Jeff your Avater is great!

Who are those!
