Re: Anderson Silva moving to 170 to take on George St Pierre?

While I understand the sentiment of wanting a little less predictability in regard to championship fights, I do agree with everything in this paragraph.

I understand it too, but it just is what it is, I guess.

Personally, I enjoy a first class, technical domination of an elite opponent as much as I do an evenly matched fight. It's just different.

Just me though.

I think the problem for me is that I'm just not a big Penn or GSP fan, and not a fan of Anderson at all.

I would love to see Machida be dominant and stay that way for a long time. I'm really hoping that his first fight with Shogun was kind of like GSP's first fight with BJ in that it was very close and different people had different ideas about who won, and that he comes back and dominates Shogun the second time around like we expected in the first fight.

I would also like to see Brock defend his belt at least 3 times. After that, I'll probably be ready for a rotation, but I wouldn't mind seeing a good run as the champ.

I hope Roy Nelson becomes the champ.

I still dont under stand why Roy doesnt get into shape and fight 205.He has zero chance imo of ever beating :Lesnar,Carwin,Cain,or JDS

Because he's had success, even while being a pudgy fat guy. Hell his last two wins were by brutal knockout in less than 5 minutes put together. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Well thats fine if he wants to fight and beat B-rated fighters his whole career but he'll never win a title at HW was my point

First and only man to hold the IFL Heavyweight title... Not overly prestigious but he did win a title at Heavyweight.

Wow the IFL champ I bet that title brought him in the big bucks

Being fat and blubbery might be cool and funny to people but he'll never win the UFC HW title.

Maybe Roy already knows he'll never be champ so he doesnt care to get in shape.He might be happy with the entertainer roll and thats fine with me if thats what he wants to do but I always thought fighters wanted to be the champ. Maybe he just wants to entertain and thats why he called out James Toney instead of Cain or JDS.

All i know is Dana better put something together because besides the HW division theres not alot of fights I care too see

Someone has to take out these dominant champs.

Penn needs to make a permanent move to WW and they need to bring in some new LW talent. Too many wrestlers. Where are the great LW strikers?

There are some interesting matches at WW, but someone needs to take out GSP.

At MW, I'd like to see Silva/Vitor and it would also be interesting to see what Sonnen could do against Silva.

At LHW, Machida/Shogun is on the Horizon, Rampage is coming back, and Bones Jones is rising in the ranks. Exciting stuff there.

Lets the chaos begin

I didn't say it was something to behold, you said he'd never win a title and he already has, that was my point. As far as him never becoming UFC heavyweight champion, can you name more than 3 guys who could even present a challenge right now for the belt? Apart from JDS, Cain, and Carwin no one even stands a chance to win that belt.
