Yes. Love it.

Anderson Silva vs. Stephan Bonnar at 205 pounds and Glover Teixeira vs. Fabio Maldonadao set for UFC 153, per our friends at @usatoday.

I really would love to see this happen just as punishment to the UFC for these retard fights. Silva only has a few fights left and we just totally waste one with a fight against a non contender in a division Silva won't fight for the title for anyway. Idiotic.

Good retirement fight for Bonnar. Hopefully he gets a good payday.

When Andy wins the Jones-Silva buzz will over power the buzz of GSP-Silva.

Wow.

Stephan Bonnar and Fabio Maldanado? Sorry but I think I'll skip this one.

You're telling me, Anderson Silva is gonna waste one of his fights on the dude who got DOMINATED by MARK COLEMAN?!



ANDERSON SILVA VS. THE GUY WHO GOT DOMINATED BY MARK COLEMAN?!?!

Anderson Silva fighting at LHW is like those random episodes of old school Spiderman, usually he's in the city fighting the Green Goblin, or Doc Oc etc and stopping bank robberies on the reg., but once in awhile you get the episode where he randomly stumbles into the subterranean world of the mole people and all sorts of trippy shit happens.

And the next week he's back in the city and its like he doesn't even remember that crazy shit went down.

I just feel that, with Silva's age, he only has a certain number of fights left. He's a living legends and needs to be fighting other legends or possible legends. I respect Bonnar's heart but he was never a top talent. Put Silva against someone like Shogun at least, or someone like Rashad fair enough, but not Bonnar.

Unless, of course, Silva is warming up for Jones at 205, then fair enough :)

That right there shows you how much Anderson cares for his country to step up on short notice no win fight just so that his countries PPV will have a worthy headline fight.

UFC 153 just went from good to bad to awesome. Strange. I am pretty sure this had something to do with 151, Dana probably offered some pretty big bucks in order to keep 153 interesting.

There is nothing awesome about a mid-tier Light Heavyweight fighting a Middleweight whose got no desire to defend his belt.
