Man if Mike Kyle landed that shot in the first round I can't even consider Fedor going into round 2 against Silva... If that punch was thrown by Fedor it would have been good night Irene !
Really can't conceive any real way Silva can win this, unless Fedor is finished after one loss (very, VERY unlikely). In fact part of me thinks the loss could relight a fire in him.
The Fedor/Silva fight is gonna be alot like Fedor vs TK 2. Fedor is gonna brutalize Silva to prove to the MMA world that he isn't done yet.
I think this fight will be similar to Fedor-Rogers. Silva will give Fedor a couple of uncomfortable early moments by virtue of his size and weight, and then Fedor will knock him cold.
I agree but Silva has shown a good Chin so I am still not sure what will happen but I think Fedor should be able to win in the end.
