If Sonnen beats Stann then fine, there's really nobody else. I always love watching Silva fight but tonight's fight left me wanting more. I'd like to see Silva tested again but the most likely result is Chael getting worked. Chael had his shot, the stars aligned for him and he still lost, (he would have been stripped anyway for cheating). Until Chael implements something the doesn't force him to have to go 5 full rounds with Silva I don't think either him or his fans will be afraid of that fight. Odds are in 25 minutes Silva will get him with something, same goes for GSP. When you get Silva in a disadvantageous position you have to put him away you can't let him hang around, he's too good.

First thing that came to my mind was that Sonnen is one of the only guys that doesn't stand there waiting to get knocked out. Okami made no serious efforts to take Silva down and he paid for it.
We all know Chael will go straight for the takedown and will work the GnP. He appears to have the best chance at 185 against Silva. Or, move Anderson up to 205 and let him fight his way up to a fight with Bones.

If Silva fights Sonnen again, it will look exactly like the Okami fight.
Sonnen surprised Silva a bit the first time, Okami tried the same kind of gameplan, and Silva was waiting for him and shredded Okami easily.
Sonnen might do it a bit better than Okami, he has a better chin, his takedowns are better, but it will still look just the same. Silva will be ready, Sonnen will get picked apart just like okami.

A drug free Chael Sonnen vs. Uninjured Anderson Silva would be fun to watch. More accurately, it will be fun to watch AS retire Chael Sonnen's mouth once and for all.

Im surprised nobody has mentioned Bisping after 3 pages. If Bisping beats Mayhem i think he has a legitimate case to a title shot. I'm not saying he would or could beat Silva, but he would be deserving of a chance if he beat Mayhem.
Aside from that i think the winner of Sonnen-Stann would also be deserving of a shot, and anybody who says they wouldnt want to see a Sonnen rematch is lying.
In an ideal world, I would like to see Silva fight GSP finally but that will never happen. Silva will continue to defend his belt against the likes of Sonnen, Bisping, and Stann while GSP defends against Diaz, Macdonald, Condit, and others until Silva finally retires into the sunset.

anderson will ruin bispings career if he fought him, bisping could only win if he used takedowns and grappling but hes not that good in his grappling to trouble silva

Agreed.
I believe, deep down, Silva wants to embarass Sonnen, like he did with so many fighters.
He wants to hurt him and taunt him afterthat. And he wants it to last for as long as possible, until finally going for the kill...Just like a predator playing with his food before eating it.
That surely is something Silva is dreaming about.
PS: how mega-awesome would be to have Silva vs Sonnen 2 in Brasil?!
