Guest baseball25 Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 Yep, he's very bored and needs a challange but I don't think gsp is a challange for him, 205 divison o's the challange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mat Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 A lot of fighters, experts and fans have different opinions as to who is the best PFP fighter in the world. In my opinion a lot has to do with who wants that title the most. Most are happy with holding a division title and then just lay claim to the PFP title without the need to prove it.Silva could be but he sure didn’t prove his case in his last fight. When he chose to move up in class and fought Forrest like he did he had my vote because he showed a hunger like he had something to prove. This time he was totally different fighter.GSP could be but while he is a technically perfect fighter I don’t see that hunger to state his case for PFP. He may have to move up in class or change to a more aggressive style to convince others he deserves that claim.Fedor could be but he’ll never convince others until he takes on UFC heavyweights.Lesner could be but doesn’t have enough fights under his belt and unless he ever gets a chance with Fedor there will always be that question.Penn was a possible but that’s gone after his recent loss.Many want the title but it just doesn’t appear anyone want to prove it. What are your thoughts? Is there anyone I left out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mat Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Could be, but in his last fight Shogun came very close to beeting him; some say he did. Their next fight will tell the tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest baseball25 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 sho gun is good fighter man, but I mean to be the champ you got to Beat the champ, and Sho gun didn't beat up machida it was a close fight but I believe the Champion should win close fights.

setxathlete14 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 GSP and silva shouldnt happen. GSP would give up too much strength and size to silva.rumor swirling Silva is eyeing the heavyweight division Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silentassasin Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Bottom line is that it does not matter if he was bored, the dude came off like a tool.He should have ended it in the 2-3 round.Thought the Edgar win was questionable but that is what happens when the judges decide and Hughes looked pretty good. But by far the better fights were the undercard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest baseball25 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 yeah i thought it was a close fight and penn should have got the nod, I mean to be the champ you got to beat him and in my eyes Edgar didn't beat, I mean machida got the nod over shogun because he was the champ same should have went for Penn,but you know the judges are horrible when one of them scored the fight 5-0 rounds for edgar.

mat Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 You have tyo wonder whats going on behind the seens with Silva. May be this was a fight he didn't want to begin with nad maybe it was a fight that Dana made happen. Could be a power struggle.I thought it was funny though how ticked off Dana was after the fight. He was NOT happy with Silva. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest baseball25 Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 dana is a big tit i mean we all saw what silva did to franklin twice leben henderson irvin and forrest griffin so thats 6 out of 11 fights he finish and just dominated so dana needs to calm down. i mean mma experts and fans need to remember this who silva is man roy jones used to be the same way and would jack around in his prime. i mean you have great boring fighters in boxing and they are hof u just have to deal with it and realize they have strategies. bernard hopkina is boring as heck and hes one of the best evere but as a boxing fan u realize he has a plan when hes in the ring and hes trying to win he dont care what people think hes in there to get that win and do what he needs to do and thats what silva does he wins man sometimes its exciting and sometimes its boring but the guy needs challanges and dana needs to give him a challange give him randycoutore next and then a shot at the 205 title its that easy.

NEVER! first mma fight for silva was may 27,2000 with a record of 26-4, fedors was may 21,2000 with a record of 32-1... silva has been in the game longer but has less fights than fedor yet you accuse fedor of only fighting once every 2 years? ha!oh and it was 8 months since silvas last fight and it will be 7 months for fedor.... :-* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest baseball25 Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Fedor can't dance around because he isn't the best in the world lol. GSP isn't a challange because he's stronger,he's is reallylong and GSP can't get him on the ground, Silva with dominate him in the stand up, so I think its a fight that Dana doesn't want to see, one thing we know about Coutore is he will push the pace and make silva fight, he will come right after Silva, and thats what silva needs, Leites, Meia, didn't come after silva they just sat back franklin twice,leben,hnderson,irvin,forrest griffin, and Marqardt, so he has dominated 4 guys ranked in the world and I mean dominated. I mean silva is going to fight his fights, if they want to bang he will bang if they want to sit back and relax then silva will let the fight come to him and fight at a pace he wants to fight, he's controls the fight, he's in there to win and dictate the fight, and thats what he does.

mat Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 The topic is PFP. Andersons last fight did not help his case. Couture would hang on him against the fence for five rounds. Well maybe just three since it would not be a title fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
