    Thiago has the better ground game, he got his black belt a while ago under Macaco, the other branch of Chute Boxe, the more grappling oriented branch out of Sao Paulo, and now trains out of ATT.

    Machida is the man to beat at 205.

    This should be a damn good fight, but I'll choose Machida's striking and elusiveness to win out over Silva's ground game, especially considering Machida's own skills on the ground.
