I love Joe's reaction after Dana White talked of the A. Silva vs JBJ fight. Woo hoo!!!

Then Joe mentions JBJ vs Cain Velasquez...haha. Crazy match ups that still need to be made.

People don't realize Anderson Silva wants to be tested. He'll get his biggest test to date with Vitor Belfort. Anderson doesn't f*** around when he faces a competent opponent. I didn't see him playing around with Rich x2, Leben, Nate, Hendo, Irvin (Journeyman, with major KO ability), Griffin, and all his past championship fights in other orgs.

Two more weeks!!! Can't wait for the countdown...

You know it's funny you mentioned that. I just rewatched the Anderson Silva fight vs Chris Leben. Leben is pretty comparable to Rampage in terms of toughness. I'd actually say Rampage is tougher though, but man Anderson took out Leben in what was it a minute.

Rampage on the other hand is gonna be an interesting one. The only person who I can remember that KOed Rampage twice did so in emphatic fashion; MULTIPLE KNEES. That's just ridiculous the amount of knees he absorbed. Inhuman almost...

Silva vs Jones would be coold but dana is pulling a fast one. I want to see one fight GSP vs Silva, dana has been saying for years. But i think he is trying to protect GSP because he knows silva would beat him. Jones would be a sick fight but its not the fight we all want to see. See how dana's face lights up for jones vs silva, but when u talk gsp vs silva the bussiness man kicks in.

I really don't see GSP vs Anderson as being an incredible fight. If former lightweight Matt Serra could KO GSP and Silva can KO huge former light-heavy champ with incredibly durable chin Forrest Griffin I'd hate to see what Silva would do to GSP. GSP wouldn't be able to avoid Silva's lightning strikes for 5 rounds.

Silva vs Rampage
Silva vs Shogun
Silva vs Jones
Silva vs Evans
Silva vs Machida
Silva vs Belfort

all excite me more than Vs GSP.

see i'm a huge anderson silva fan however a fight with gsp is very interesting. I think silva will win but that is just my opinion. However i would be blind if i did not say GSp has a very good chance of winner. Both guys have never fought anyone near each others skills set. Also Anderson strengths is gsp weakness, whereas gsp strength is Anderson weakness. The only kicker is silva Bjj, and Gsp ability to be a great stiker when he wants to be.

All those fights you listed i would love to see however the silva vs gsp debate for p4p best needs to be resolve. I would love to see any of those fighters more than gsp vs silva however i just want to see gsp vs silva for the debates to be over.

the same evans that lost to machida and got whooped by rampage but page was not smart enough to pure it and decided to let him up. Silva would pick apart Evans, yes evans is good but no way in hell he sticks to a game plan him chael sonnen. His ego is to big and he will stand at some point.

Anderson-Rua would definitely be awesome. I would throw Mousasi in the mix as well to see how he does. He arguably has one of the best stand up game in LHW. Daley-Alves was the fight i really wanted to see as well. Speaking of, who would you pick, Paul or Thiago?
