if silva wins he gets lots of money and goes home, if crocop wins he gets lots of money and goes home, what do u get as a fan? u get to tease and torment other 12 year olds on this forum cause your fighter won? well guess what, neither crocop nor silva know who u are and they will never care to know u personally and they will never send u part of that big check so u might aswell cheer for the man with the bucket who cleans the ring in between fights cause he the closest to you when it comes to benefits in regards to the outcome of the fight

I am a huge Wand fan but I think that Cro Cop should be the favorite in this one. However, If Wand can keep the pressure on him and not give him time to set he could pull off an upset. I think Wands one distinct advantage is in the cardio department. The longer it goes Wand will have an advantage.

Im down with Cro cop but wandy might win with a brutal headbutt just like what he did to mezger, i dont know why the ref didnt call that shit anyways

Crocop is a tough fight for Wand, but to count Wand out is stupid. Was Crocop able to ko Fujita? He doidn't look too good against Hunt either and Silva lost by the narrowest of margins to Hunt. I know, I know...mma math doesn't always work out, but I think Silva matches up favorably against CC. Wanderlei by brutal ko to the point of Mirko's fragile chin.

the fact still remains that wandy is a quick,aggressive striker,and cro-cop has had problems with that in the past.i know alot of fighters see this,but fail in attempts to chase mirko around the ring.but those other fighters are not wandy!!!i'm not saying wandy'll win(although i think he will),but i see this fight more 60/40 in mirko's favor...either way,it'll still be a war

First off, it wasn't a win for Silva.

Secondly, the reason why it is not comparable, is because Vitor vs. Silva was over in about a minute, with a flurry of punches. Silva was silly and moved backwards while the barrage was coming, which is the last thing you are supposed to do, and something that he would never do again. So, it's not something that you could base what a rematch would look like on. In the Silva vs. CroCop fight, the fight went the distance. We got to see how they work with each other. And CroCop DID throw a good amount of kicks.

I don't think EITHER are comparable to what a rematch will look like with either fighter. But I think the Silva vs. CroCop is a closer comparison.

I definately think that this fight with CroCop will be MUCH, MUCH harder for Silva than the first fight. But I also think Silva will do better in this one than their first fight. Should be awesome.

Its going to be a very tough fight for both CC and Wand and even though I like Wand a lil better I still see CC comin out with the W in this one.

[M. Bison]

The only thing I can say with certainty about this fight is the winner will have the crap beat out of him, and probably wont look and feel much different than the loser. Going to be hard for either of them in the finals.

Silva would have got the decision in their first fight, but if mirko had the takedown defense he have right now, or the fight had lasted 2 more rounds, silva would be tko to those bodykicks.

Hunt made Silva look like a sloppy striker and he almoust took his head off on several occasions. The only thing Silva did in that fight were takedowns and weak submission attempts.

Crocop on the other hand arguably got the better out of Hunt standing, he landed a lot more on him than vice versa.
