    actually i think bisping vs silva would be a damn good fight, I'd definately watch that shit! Bispings pretty good I'd say he's the best English fighter around... as far as fedor or belfort they weigh too much to fight silva there is like a 30-35 pound weight difference there... Cung Le vs Silva in my opinion would be the best match up, 2 stand up strickers sluggin it out Cung with his high kick and Silva with his knees!

    I'm interested to watch the Leben v. Bisbing fight because if Bisbing can dominate Leben then he might have a chance with Silva.

    Cung Le would be the perfect match up for Silva. I think Cung would pull out a win too. Silva has the height and reach advantage but only with his punching. Cung's kicking techniques are superior to Silva's and he'd use them to keep Silva at bay and pick him apart piece by piece like he did to Shamrock. Plus remember Cung Le's extensive experience fighting strikers during his San Shou days so he wouldn't get caught up in Silva's thai clinch and knees. Silva would need to utilize his jiu-jitsu on Cung but I've never seenhow good Silva's takedown and wrestling skills are, and Cung is arguably harder to takedown than Chuck Liddell. But like I said in previous threads this dream fight will never happen since they're in different organizations.

    MMM Yeah we have had this topic in here once or twice... um Spider is at the top of my list of great fighters and so is G.S.P soooo it would be hard to route for one or the other ... geeze.... but i think i would still lean slightly towards the Spider....

    nate the great....i don`t if he calls himself that but he has what it takes to take out the spider. will he? i don`t know but i hope i have my directv back on when they fight again. alamda is his name? he also seems to have the right mindset to turn it up a notch and give spider a fight!

    silva i think is the only fighter dana would let fight in a event outside the ufc! what happenedwith the roy jones i`m still waiting to see! i don`t think danafeels he`s the center of attentionenough to let silva fight roy jones!

    a mma grand prix is right up dana`s ally! you could almost see him lift off when silva fights!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hd fights showing dream might get dana to play his hand among the billionaires! i like dana to sign fedor in `09 and keep his feet on the ground in `09 with tito leaving and tim gone dana can sign the next GSP and the next young w.silva! out with the old and in with the moble youth!

    GSP definately has a great chance, his flexibility is outrageous, his attitude is great. He is very strong on the ground and with leg kicks. He is not my favorite but one of my favorites to watch. Bisping I think has a chance as well, don't underestimate him, It sucks Leban is off the card for that , Bisping already has that fight one. Spider is great too, but I think GSP and Bisping have a better chance than anyone else

    Bisping? The same Bisping that was lucky to beat Matt Hammill?

    Cung Le that got rocked by Shamrock's punches? At least he would be better than Bisping.

    Isn't it funny there is no one in hisweight to challenge him, and he has to move up to Light Heavyweight for any sort of challenge?

    Rickson Gracie would give Silva the best challenge, but MMA could not afford the purse.

    They're not fighting because Leben is going to be serving 35 days in jail for violating his probation.
