I just don't see GSP being even an option. GSP would have to do a helluva ton of HGH.

Yeah let him move up to 205 for he can fight Jones, Rampage, Evans......

At this rate, since he takes no damage from his fights, he fight until he is well into his upper 40s. He is like the modern Frank Dux

He is not a fake fighter though...

You wonder if the dropping hands is part-ultimate psych-out or just pure confidence in his terminator computer mind that he's deduced how this thing is ending. You see other guys gesture or taunt and nothing happens. With Silva its like a wrestling video game, a legitimate sign the end is nearing.

I would much rather see Jones vs Silva than GSP vs Silva

Only the last two Jon Jones fights approached the sense of awe and "i have no idea what he's going to do next" that ive had watching the last couple of Silva fights. And its really not close.

I love watching Anderson Silva fights to see the deer in headlights look on his opponents faces. It's a sight to behold.

Re: UFC in Rio: August 27th - Silva vs. Okami and Rua vs. Griffin 2

I wanna see Anderson smash Bones Jones, but that's a fight that will never happen.

might happen in a few years when Silva is near his fight career.

Good overall card, and my type of card, 5 KO's.

Anderson Silva is the Blue Magic of MMA.

I am a pretty big MMA fan and a HUGE boxing fan, and in all the fights I've experienced in my life, there are few things that come close to the absolute domination of an in-the-zone Anderson Silva. He is truly a man among boys.

Re: UFC in Rio: August 27th - Silva vs. Okami and Rua vs. Griffin 2

He earned it. Okami had the wins to deserve the shot. Cant knock him for getting crushed by the greatest fighter in MMA.

He's the greatest fighter... period (and that's coming from a boxing purist). He has all of the tangibles AND the intangibles. Complete fantasy.

Put Strikeforce out of its misery already and have Silva vs. Jacare.
