    thats a big if....and I would not count silva out vs jones..jones has a huge reach against anyone..but silva has experience and he plans every fight very well...

    ad total agree gsp fights are lame...lets jump around for 5 rounds or jab and run...

    I agree with gear thats a big if, we will see what Silva's gameplan will be to deal with Chael this time around.

    If Silva comes in healthy, Im guessing KO him late in the first round

    I would tend to agree, if Chael comes to the fight looking like he did against Bisping it may even be a quicker KO. but my feeling is that Chael will be very prepared for this fight he would love nothing more than to upset Silva in Brazil (and probably have the whole nation riot) but the only thing Chael has an advantage in imo is wrestling and cardio. But then again Chael looked very sluggish in his last fight.

    ^ also true brotha and I hope Chael can get the first strike take Silva down and beat's him on the ground. I agree I trained at Blackhouse MMA and I used my wrestling background to neutralize some of their jui-jitsu.

    I do not think chael has a change for silva. It will be the same result as last time around. He did not look good vs Bisping.
    Wrestling is he back bone or mma i agree. And the bjj vs wrestling thing- I believe it just matters how good your bjj is or how great a wrestler you are. I have seen many bjj guys work wrestlers, and many wrestlers handle bjj guys. So I think it depends on the time and person.

    I think he'll beat Silva because he'll screw with his mental during the fight

    Silva got lucky with a basic choke. Chael was whooping his ass the majority of the fight before that. Chael is slivas biggest challenge and biggest threat. After watching that fight, i felt sonnen would def rematch. That belt is sonnens, silva just dont know it yet.
