Can anyone stop Anderson Silva?

when you look at the greater scheme of things, if he's not p4p the best, he beat the numer one contender 2 times in devistating fashion. if you can get close enough to take him down, he will rearrange your face, and if you do take him down he'll either submit you or get back up and rearrange your face. i say silva by TKO over lindland, kang or anyone else TKO in the second or third round. the chonan heel hook had to be the submission of the century besides shogun griffin. he cant be stopped.


anyone second?

Unfortunately the folk I would like to see face Anderson are either not in the UFC or refuse to drop to MW. Saying that, Anderson has been super impresive and is no doubt one of the top p4p'ers in the MMA world.

time for the ufc to step up negotiations with top MWs. need to go after lawler, mayhem, filho, kang. i know some of those guys are contracted into other orgs, but those are the guys they need for anderson. ufc mw is running out of fights.

His physique/appearance doesn't matter with that strength of his.

What works is what counts, not how you look. You saw how he pushed Rich around like a ragdoll in both of the fights.

anderson looks unstoppable right now i cant think of anyone who can possibly beat him right now. nobody in the division has his level of ruthless striking, taking him down is the only option yet he is still very dangerous for the ground, he's the first truly complete fighter ive seen for a while
