True, but also not. They both have good TDD at single/double leg. The first person to really try tying up Lyoto and going for a grecco throw also got him to the ground. JDS has AMAZING hips for getting out of single/double leg TDs, but we haven't seen anyone with a grecco/judo background clinch with him and try to get him down that way. I think if JBJ ties up with JDS, JDS ends up with his back on the ground and we get to see if his BJJ translates inside the cage. |

JDS would mess Anderson Silva up.
Fact. Brock Lesnar would also beat Anderson Silva (come at me, bro).

JDS lands even one of those and it could be lights out. And he could use his size to push Anderson against the fence and then dirty box him to unconscious. JDS throws some vicious uppercuts.

Bonnar landed those shots because Silva let him. Anderson's speed advantage on JDS would be ridiculous and he has the ability to take any man out with any strike.

JDS would wreck every single fighter in the LHW and MW division, no doubt about it.
I am literally lost for words by some of the comments in this thread.

Why is there no doubt? What is there to show that a 240lb Dos Santos has anything on a 220lb Anderson? Who's to say that JDS can even land anything significant on Anderson? Yeah, JDS is fast but he's not as quick as Vitor and we all know how that one went. Watch JDS sparring with Shogun, I know it was a few years back and he's obviously improved but as a striker, he's just not on Anderson's level.
Their reach is pretty much equal, Junior is taller and stronger but Anderson is faster and a better technical fighter.
So basically IMO, if JDS doesn't shoot a double then he's in trouble. |

Hold on, i probably should have said IMO. As in my mind, he would wreck them all.  |

I have to agree... JDS is the baddest man on the planet. He's a great striker but I think his mentality is the most dangerous part about him. If he had not become an martial artist I think he would have been an assassin. I really think his brain works differently than most people.

haha that definitely makes things better, but still, why do you think JDS is better than Anderson on the feet? He's not actually that much bigger (he's similar size to Nog and Anderson spars him every day), and he's nowhere near the striker Anderson is. If he doesn't shoot for a double and go for a decision win then IMO he doesn't have the ability to win.
Anderson is a better boxer than JDS.
(I only said he's the better boxer because it's obvious that he's better at the other aspects aside TDD)

I don't disagree about Brock.
Cain, Cormier, Barnett and Carwin would all probably beat him too. The difference is they would use their wrestling, Junior has too much pride in his hands. |

Because whilst Anderson may have the more technical striking, I dont think he could take many JDS punches. |

I think Anderson has one of the better chins in MMA. But JDS can put anyone but Roy Nelson out.
I think Anderson would win in a striking contest.

But in how many of Silva's sniping punches could Dos Santos walk¿ When Silva KOed former LHW champ Griffin with a jab, he was walking backwards and both his feet were in mid-air.
Dos Santos could take the punches of the HW behemots, because he move quite well and their punches are slow and designed to destroy stationary targets, but Silva's punches are designed to snipe down moving targets.

Anyone but Roy Nelson and Shane Carwin ...and possibly Anderson Silva who rolls so well with his opponent's punches, that not much force is tranfered. |

I don't care who would win between JDS and Anderson, they will never fight and rightly so.
JDS vs Jones... bring it on. We all want to see Jones move up, many feel he should be a HW already. Nothing wrong with him being LHW, he makes weight without consequence so fair is fair... but every fight is the same story.
I want to see Jones outmuscled, I want to see him forced to scrap, I want JDS to show everyone who the boss is. He's not the only HW I'd pick over Jones either.
