    Silva's much better striking would ko Griffin easily.

    griffin may be tough but chris leben was tough too, griffin takes too many punches, always gets cut. anderson would bust him up.

    I wonder what the chances are of having Anderson Silva directly challenge Forrest Griffin for the LHW title?

    I think Randleman possibly Machida would be Silvas toughest fights at 205....

    Randleman? I love Kevins intensity but lets be real Colemans been the most succesful fighter out of Hammerhouse and there all extremely limited. Kevin is in the twilight of his career. Silva would own him standing up and on the mat. Plus Kevin is a sucker for a good knee bar.

    Yes he is a bad mofo, but he has a obligation to defend his title at 185. Now if he doesn't mind going back and forth between divisions, then I'd love to see a Griffin/Silva fight. Although by the time that happens I'm not sure Griffin will be holding the title. Time will tell.

    obligation smobligation. He has beaten, arguably, every legitimate challenge at 185, looked fantastic in his 205 debut, and in my opinion would be more than welcome in the 205 mix.

    I'd much rather Anderson fight Chuck Lidell than Okami. I'd much rather see him fight Forrest than Bisping.

    He has nothing left to prove at 185 and he could truly go down as the greatest ever if he cleans out 205.
