I forgot about this fight. I feel like this would have been more of a relevant fight a few years back, but it could still be exciting. If I had to pick a winner, I'd pick Silva. Hamill has already retired once and he didn't look great in his return fight. Silva hasn't looked like a world beater either, but I can see him getting a stoppage win here.
Stupid fight, who let Hamill back in? Silva wins but not necessarily impressively, which he needs to be IMO for his career's sake. Matt is a bastad to put down.
I'm gonna go against the grain and say Hamill. I think if he is smart enough to not try to bang with Silva he should be able to get this to the ground. Silva isn't a slouch, but I think Hamill's top control is good enough.
This fight should be called the fight of Ring Rust.
I'm hoping that Thiago Silva is able to get back into beast mode. He looks like a champ in his last fight and it'd be cool to see him get up to that level.
here's hoping thiago stays clean and takes the win with a three round one sided dominate beat down; i'd hope for a 1st round KO and KotN for the prize money, but i don't want to get ahead of myself. let's get back on a clean winning streak first.
This should be a fight Thiago wins, but me thinks Hamill can win the decision. He has a hard head enabling him to withstand some very hard shots. After all he withstood every single one of the LHW title holders' elbows winning by DQ. I have to say that's impressive. Vera got TKOed by one shot in the eye socket and pretty much everyone else.
I wish they put Thiago Silva vs Mousassi. I like watching Thiago Silva fight, but I always like to pull for the underdog. So Hamill by split decision albeit a very hard fought battle.
Wow, I just realized I'm the only one picking Hamill. Anybody give me 5 to 1 odds. Small bets. $10k. I win $50k
I do think Thiago Silva hits too hard for Hamill. I think if Hamill came in and stuck to a perfect game plan (simply wrestling Thiago Silva seems to be the way to beat him), he MAY have a good chance of pulling off a uanimous decision. Otherwise, Silva hands are too much for him! I am going to be predictable and say Thiago Silva via 2nd round TKO!!!
Out of shape Thiago > refuses to use his wrestling Hamill
