Rampage i think has the best shot to beat him. Rashad and Chuck also have a shot. GSP can beat him if he fights his best. Other than that Spider destroys everyone else.

Yeah, he's even said Lyoto is MMA's best striker.

I disagree, the light heavys you put would all be more then a match for him imo. He tools Cung, and all of the other MWs though.

Cung Le will have the smallest chance, alongside Kang.
Anderson would outstrike Chuck, be it to a pulp or a lopsided decision.
Then it gets trickier.. Rampage is my main man but I think Anderson would also be a favourite against Page with his speed, accuracy and reach as well as his more diverse striking skill set. He'll most probably use his lateral footwork, leg kicks and sheer stand up agility against Page.
The Machida fight is the hardest one to call.. we haven't seen any weaknesses from Machida yet and his sweeps and agility is frightening.. toss up, but again I can't count out Anderson Silva.
Really, the only person who I think Anderson Silva would struggle against is Fedor (by being Fedor) and Brock (who could just expose his not-excellent wrestling and mow him down over and over again).
Uh, I guess Overeem of Japan would have a got shot too.

1.) Nice double post.
2.) Rashad via TKO over A.Silva!? If Rashad TKO'd Spider I would...
...and never watch MMA again.
3.) Don't you guys know the only way to beat the spider is flying heel hook?

I haven't seen Kang or Cungle ; ) fight before.
I'd rather not see Machida fight again.
Chuck goes down in the second. Silva will figure out his timing quickly and chuck doesn't have the speed he use to.
Rampage will be to strong. Silva seems to have his most trouble dealing with someone who can out muscle him. Rampage TKO 3rd.
Similar call for Rashad. he's proven to be a much better fighter than I thought he'd be. Rashad will take him down then GNP in the 3rd
