    Silva is 182lbs??? is that light for him. I think he wants to make a statement tonight, after the Cote fight

    Yep, I think so too. He was particularly aggressive in the staredowns aswell apparently.

    1st round KO on the cards me thinks.

    Should be a entertaining event. A few decent fights in the prelims too, so hopefully we get to see a few. Looking forward to seeing Cane back in action and Kongo vs Hardonk should be exciting. I really hope Shogun turns up in good shape. Also don't underestimate Leites!

    I have a feeling that Leites will lose on decision.

    He won't weigh anywhere near that, he hasn't cut weight. He'll be 182.

    Cutting weight is an art.

    No pro, especially one of Andersons experience, would overdo it by three pounds when every gram is hell.
