    Sure it's been posted many times, but I don't care.

    I love how he clowns on the guy all the time and makes him looks stupid and then the guy throws on some bravado to try to conserve his dignity.

    Obviously the guy he's in there with isn't the greatest but still...

    The way he can feel the rythm of his oponent is really great. He just knows what the guy's gonna do. When the punches are gonna come and how fast (like in the UFC against Forrest and that other guy that he kept punching in the thigh and doing other exhibitions) and that allows him to pull all the crazy **** he does all the time here and in the UFC.

    He loves to showboat and sometimes leaves himself out there and gets hit for it.

    The way he moves ( like the litle crouches and when he leans to the sides) and makes the guy react to his moves, he's just on another level, thanks mostly to his feel for the rhythm of his opponents.

    I love the move towards the beggining when the opponent throws the jab and anderson moves to the outside of his jab and throws an uppercut on the inside of it.

    The guy's terrific.:happy:thumbsup

    Sure he looks impressive in the UFC fighting arm punching bums with no skill and chin but put him in the ring with anyone in the top 40 in his weightclass and he would get absolutely taken apart.

    Silva is great but I'm really impressed by BJ Penns boxing ability.

    Even Freddie Roach said Penn is the best boxer in MMA.

    Silva is a beast though.

    he could probably compete higher than top 40 honestly...

    I doubt it. I'm sure the world amateur champ at his weight would tool him as well. The guy just isn't that good.

    Silva would get knocked out by Jeff Lacy, Tarver, Roy Jones, and outpointed by Hopkins.

    Yes he can box, but I don't see him being able to beat any of the top 40, I think he's on the level of a Kelly Pavlik skillwise, which is very good but it's not good enough to be great in any of these divisions.

    I'd still want to see him fight Roy Jones because even an old Roy Jones would probably knock him out, but it would be fun to watch.

    I think the Roy that just got beat by Hopkins could still kick his ass.

    Sure, he's nice with his hands in the UFC.....But didn't he get TKO'd by some Brazilian cab driver?
