http://www.mmaweekly.com/chael-sonn...says-no-thanks-wants-to-fight-wanderlei-silva I really wanted to see this fight a couple years ago, after the comments Sonnen made when Leben stopped Silva in the 1st round of their fight. Sonnen is not a puncher, and Wanderlei hasn't exactly shown any sort of weakness to wrestling. I thought Wanderlei stood a good chance against Sonnen then, and thought it would make for an interesting fight. A couple of years have past, and Silva is a couple years older now. I'm not as exited about it now as I would have been then, but I would still like to see this.
This fight is actually a toss up, Wand isn't easy to keep down and Chael hits about as hard as my little sister.
Sadly, its a good fight. Both should retire but I'd like it if this was a retirement fight. Sonnen will talk it up, Silva will look and act the part, both will have a ruck.
Neither guy is winning gold at 205, I like the fight. Neither is likely to beat the elite of 205 these days so it makes sense.
I'd luv to see Wand put a beating on Sonnen............you can never get sick of tired watching Sonnen getting the **** punched out of him after running his mouth.
good fight. sonnen is still dangerous to all but the elite and wandy has shown hes not quite ready for the glue factory just yet. plus there is genuine animosity between the two. if sonnen wins it sets up a great fight with vitor as well.
