    After FINALLY watching Cung Le fight Frank Shamrock last night on a EliteXC replay its certain what needs to happen.....Dana White needs to sign Cung to the UFC and make the Silva fight happen. I believe Cung is the one to dethrone Silva. He has it all, kicks, punches, a good chin, and stamina. How can Anderson compete when semi truck kicks coming from every direction? He never fought someone like Cung. It NEEDS to happen.

    So do you like Nick Diaz's odds against Silva as well then?

    Cung Le needs to fight some decent contenders before he even thinks about fighting Anderson Silva.

    Frank Shamrock isnt decent?? Even though he is a bit past his best he is still a tough guy with loads of experience.

    Hey Nick Diaz is a great fighter who is very tricky so yea I'd favor him to atleast make it a decent fight but beating him?? No.

    He's a decent name, but that fight was over a year ago. And we dont (and didn't know) where Shamrock was really. He wasn't ranked very high in the Middleweight rankings and hadn't fought a top contender himself in a long time.

    Basically Cung Le is rated so high on how good he COULD be and his achievements in San Shou, not on anything he has done in MMA.

    Well UFC needs to give him a chance. Throw him in with Nate Marquardt or Michael Bisping and then see what he can do.

    Well said Grievesy, I've also been saying the same for a while now. Don't get me wrong he has talent, but all this talk of a potential fight with Anderson is silly considering he hasn't faced any top 10 mw. Its a shame he is more interested in making movies then fighting as he aint getting any younger.
