[quote post=”3473″]Ya, he has a good chance at beating Anderson Silva , he just needs the same judges as the Hammil fight. [/quote]

LOL, however, I’d be willing to bet my life that if Anderson Silva fought Michael Bisping that it would NOT go to the scorecards. Actually, I don’t see any of Anderson Silva’ fights going to the scorecards against anyone in the division, especially considering he’s champ so they are 5 round bouts. Henderson is the only one that I think can last 5 rounds with him, and I also think Hendo can finish him as well.

[quote post=”3473″]The UFC needs to get some competition in the MW division. I can’t figure out why this TUF season is for welterweights which is already stacked. It should have been middleweight. If I was a lightheavy, someone like Bisbing, I’d seriously be considering dropping to MW. [/quote]

When you click on grice’s picture, it takes you to his ufc fighter link, and it lists the loss to Etim as his only ufc history. i hope Grice can beat jason black. I’m from Oklahoma so I’ve gotta support him. I guess I don’t have to, I don’t care much for david heath. Grice’s nickname sucks, should be skeletor or something like that.

I was just looking at the UFC 77 fight card over at ufc.com and they have Matt Grice’s record at 9-0. HOWEVER, at the first PPV in England he got choked out by Terry Etim. He has a loss on his record, I wonder if it was a typo, or if Etim failed the post fight steroid test, lol. He may have failed the bulimia test, but not the steroid test!

[quote post=”3473″]Spida did the picks last time. I think he did pretty good. [/quote]

That’s right! Sorry for forgetting about that Spida. It was written very well too!

yeah, it would be nice. The middleweight division is now the only one lacking in talent. You could pretty much book fights for all of next year with the potential matchups in some of the other weight classes. I would like to see some tougher competition for Franklin and Silva. Okami gave Franklin some difficulty, but after that its a big drop in talent.

[quote comment=”163826″][quote comment=”163757″][quote comment=”163732″]Anyone got any info on who Silva would fight next if he wins in Cincy? Also who would be Franklin fight next if he wins?[/quote]

Unless Hendo drops, it would have to be either J-Mac/Okami winner.[/quote]

I think you’re probably right. That kinda sucks, I think Silva would probably destroy either of those guys, and franklin already beat them both. okami gave him a tough fight, I wouldn’t hate watching Okami/Franklin again. It just wasn’t that exciting the first time around.[/quote]

I dont want to see an Okami/Franklin II, and I REALLY dont want to see a Franklin/Macdonald II!

I mean if Anderson wins and so does Okami that poses a real nice threat to beat Anderson Silva and a great psyichal match-up.

But Honestly this division is in shambles. I mean with CHRIS LEBEN winning his fight against Terry Martin, honestly Leben could be in the top 5 in this division, and thats saying that sadly with a straight face.

I think Thales Leites deserves the next shot at the champion, and yet that could happen, and I would love to see me some Leites vs. Silva!

This division needs to get healthy because it has alot of potentials and alot of stars possibly coming out for it.

Drew McFedries
Martin Kampmann
D. Maia
Travis Lutter
Kendall Grove
Michael Bisping (possibly)
Terry Martin
Chris Leben
Thales Leites
Evan Tanner (hopefully one day)
Dean Lister
Patrick Cote
Yushin Okami
Jason MacDonald
(maybe) Dan Henderson
Rich Franklin
Anderson Silva

I mean if people can get healthy, and people can come back and drop weight. This division is stacked and would have some VERY intriguing fights.

[quote comment=”163597″][quote post=”3473″]Mania, you should let me pick the winners of UFC 77 with you and Jesse Holland. We need to make it a 3 Team Table now! [/quote]

Actually, mania now has top commentators do write-up analysis and also make thier picks for the UFC events in addition to Jesse’s picks. Luppers was the first one to do it, he did for the UFN 11 I believe. I actually don’t remember who did this past PPV, maybe that one was Luppers… If it wasn’t I appologize for not remembering right at this moment.[/quote]
