Looks like Bonnar was the only person to step up but He will get finished within a round.

I reckon He'll make it to the 3rd... doubt he'll make it to the final bell though. |

Not a relevant fight, but it will certainly be a fun one. Sometimes you just need to kick back and ignore ranking systems, reputations, etc. I think some of you have forgotten what it is to be a genuine fight fan. Respect to Anderson Silva for doing what Jon Jones was too much of a wimp to do.
Bonnar is no joke. Far tougher test than any of Silva's fights at LHW thus far. Though I've no doubts Anderson will win, I can almost guarantee this fight goes the distance.

Nothing would make me happier than for this upset to happen.
With that said, RIP Bonnar.

I agree, why does it have to make sense, its a fight with potential to be exciting, we get to see a extra fight from anderson, its a fight, its fun to watch. I wish they had more Exhibition type fights. I will watch it.

Bonnar is going to be completely obliterated.

Some of the complaints I've read in this thread made me realize that people will complain at any chance they're given. There's literally no reason to not be excited for this fight.
I'm disgusted by how fickle the MMA community has become, but in the same token it's nice to read how many here are also baffled why some can't seem to enjoy treats like this.
If you're a fan of fights, Bonnar is definitely someone who could challenge Silva. He's a beast of a man who never stops moving forward and is probably one of the hardest guys at LHW to finish. He's fought the likes of Jones ... and is likely going into this fight with the idea to make it into a classic Bonnar war. This fight will be exciting, and if you don't agree I'd be really curious why you watch fights.
I'm beginning to become convinced that these hipster MMA fans are just complaining because they've lost sight of the nature of competition and perhaps think expressing constant dissatisfaction is the cool thing to do.

What exactly is it about this match up that ANYONE could possibly like? The fact that Stephan Bonnar can take a punch? Big deal, this is the same man who was pasted by MARK COLEMAN at UFC 100, now we're supposed to throw down sixty bucks to watch him basically be a human punching bag for the biggest politician in MMA? This is typical Anderson Silva, he goes up to 205 and he picks a can or someone with pillows for fists(in this case both, Bonnar is absolutely terrible), he never mentioned Shogun's name when he was the Champion, he's completely terrified of being locked in a cage with Bones and if the truth was known he probably doesn't want a piece of Rashad either, so now he gets to beat up a guy whose a can, always has been a can and always will be a can in front of his people then after this we're gonna hear how he wants to go pick on a Welterweight who hasn't fought in nearly two years. Thankfully Carlos Condit is gonna spoil that one, so maybe Anderson will finally fight Weidman, that or he may do us all a favor and just retire.
And Fabio Maldanado? What the hell is that about? You've got Phil Davis fighting some no name and they wanna bring in a guy who lost his last two fights for Glover to beat up? Well isn't that just lovely.
And to top it all off, Jon Fitch won't be allowed to wrestle Erick Silva, this PPV sucks. |
