They are friends so Silva wont fight him. Hypothetical situation. What happens if it goes to the ground, could Silva get back up?
Mismatch imo. Hes fighting Lindland right? I think Lindland will control him and stop him with elbows.
If they fought - I would go with Silva via TKO. He seamlessly blends his strikes into his grappling, wrestling, etc. He would catch Jacare in the transitions - unless The Alligator uses the Brazilian butt scoot to keep away.
Who would Silva fight :huh Hes said he wont fight Filho or Machida, doesnt wanna fight Wanderlei, claims Henderson and Marquardt arent deserving and is pulling all stops to get out of the Vitor fight.
I'd like to see more of Jacare against well rounded fighters first; Silvas wrestling is underrated and Jacare can tend to rush in too fast. If Jacare does get him down, he has a better suited style than Leites; he has the crushing control of a wrestler and the slickness of a Maia.
