I do not see Cro Cop as a threat to Anderson Silva. Cro Cop is not the same guy he once was...
As for Kongo.... Silva would need all three rounds to beat him. Kongo has a tough chin... and despite having a weak ground game, if Kongo and Silva hit the ground, I think Kongo would pound Silva.

I think CC would beat Anderson Silva, personally. We'll have to see how he does at 103 though.

I'm pretty sure Fedor would tap Nog nowadays, and he'd definitely outclass Silva on the ground. Silva's been submitted quite a few times before, and I know he's got a belt now... but Fedor has been submitting good ground fighters longer than Silva has even been fighting.
Plus we all know Silva struggles with good wrestlers, and Fedor's Sambo would overwhelm Silva. Once on the ground, the russian would have his way with him. |

If Fedor gets on top of AS it will be a long night for the Spider. I don't even think he'll go for a sub, he'll just GnP him. Standing Fedor would lose IMO. Fedor is by no means a pushover in the standup game, but that's AS's bread and butter. I see Fedor confusing AS a bit during the feel out process and taking him down when he leasts expects it. It'll be game over at that point. Same result would happen if he decides to stand and play pattie cake with AS.

I think Silva wouild use footwork to avoid the takedown with Fedor. I thik Silva would beat Fedor. I dont care about weight or anything in this instance I truly feel Anderson would take Fedor to striking school

Do you honestly believe a Russian Sambo Champion would have trouble taking Anderson Silva down?  |

Pretty much completely agree with this. Pure speculation threads like this are silly, because far too many people get serious about them.
I'd say on record and quality of opponents alone, as well as considering the fact that CC is a relatively small HW, AA would probably take it. As for Cheick... it's basically impossible to say. We've never even seen Silva fight anyone close to that large. |
