Liddell would be savagely mauled and prolly wouldnt make it out of the first round

[GinEric84]

Forrest Cant fight?!? I think quite a few fighters as well as any fans that actually understand the sport would disagree with you

[stopbeingcowards]

I've never been so in the middle before but i agree with both sides. ITs true the main thing is to win and do what you have to, but like Bobby King was saying alot of really good fighters are boring and they are performing for the people who pay them! Great fighters put on a good show bobby king, muhammad ali, roy jones, krazy horse, mike tyson, chuck liddell. The best ones are fun to watch, even their interviews!! Alot of fighters are boring today don't take risky fights they'll fight bums

I miss Japanese Pride FC, nobody booing, not like thi american crap

[pacificspade]

I think all people who boo at Mixed Martial Arts events are morons. Two fighters in a cage doing something that the people booing would NEVER have the balls to do. Go boo at a basketball game since anyone cam shoot a jumpshot, but don't boo somebody who is putting his life on the line everytime he goes to work.

A. Silva = legendary fighter

[kanguesso]

first off, i think you and i both would agree that calling someone a "good 'ol white boy" ranks pretty low on the all time racial slurs ever used on youtube. i sincerely did not use that word as a slur. i used it to emphysize the fact that his race does win him alot of credibily with UFC fans who happen to look like him or identify with him in a racial category. Enough with that. this is about the true king of mma in silva. Fedor is too busy puting on exebition shows with light weights.

Wow I sense a bit of racism. And if those haters said what you had said, I would have said what I said. And isn't that what you would want to see? because according to you no one can challenge Silva, except maybe Fedor. And I am sure thats what Silva wants. But Silva is a true warrior, a Samurai if you will, and I really dont think he would give up his belt, he wants someone to take it from him. And moving up for good now does nothing. He wont fight Machida lyoto. someone needs to beat him 1st.

[kanguesso]

hell would have broken loose in the sense that his fucking haters would've been saying that he's disrespectful this, that and the third. that's what i meant. but since good 'ol white boy did that, it's oh he was actually showing respect because he knew he was not in the same class as Silva. there is nothing for GSP to do. if he moves up and meets silva, silva will make him look like a biginner. read the article on yahoo sports from Dan Wetzel and you will find that silva does wants 205 for good.

Silva is an amazing fighter.

That's it.
