    Although Silva almost got finished by Sonnen on multiple occasions, Silva showed that he could survive against a striking powerhouse with an incredible striking pedigree in Chael "fists of fury" Sonnen.

    RJJ/Silva. Please make the fight the world wants to see.

    Striking powerhouse. I was supporting Chael but he is not that.

    Nobody actually thought Silva could so much as land a punch on even today's Jones in a Boxing ring right?

    Nobody actually thought Danny Green would knock RJJ the **** out in 122 seconds either, Silva could probably trouble RJJ alot today, 4 or 5 years ago Roy Jones crushes him him though.

    Comparing CS to RJJ is not right....

    RJJ would punish Silva in a stand up.

    I predicted a Danny Green KO in the first round, people seriously underestimate the guys punching power.

    Standing up, I cant see any way Anderson could ever trouble a fighter of RJJ's caliber.

    RJJ vs Sonnen in a shootboxing match; essentially thai rules, takedowns scored, and subs from standing allowed.
