Up in the air on who wins this one but I think Vandy is getting too old and Leben will come out hungry after the loss to Stann

Silva isn't going to get caught.

Prediction: correct Leben   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

im a little hesitant to get excited about this fights potential, because recent cant miss slugfests have been should miss snoozefests...guillard vs stephens, johnson vs hardy...hopeful but cautious at the same time

I see this going to a decision with the new careful Wand just picking Leben apart with maybe a couple heated exchanges scattered throughout.

Prediction: correct Leben   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

I'm surprised that 70% are going with Silva, to me it's a hard call, Leben when hurt is the most dangerous he can be, and Wandy is just a swarming maniac throwing big blows. I love both of them and I'm pumped for the fight, I guess i'm gonna say Wand Decision or Leben KO.

this fight is going to end up being leben looking like a drunken brawler while Wandy circles out, plays cautious, and picks leben apart,

 

 i pick Wandy by 2nd round TKO from catching leben rushing in on one of his drunken haymakers

Yeah, think I'm going to have to go against the crowd and pick Leben to knock out Wandy.  Why not?   Everybody else has.

Prediction: correct Leben   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

silva is a middleweight version of big nog...not style wise...not by a long shot...no, what i mean is that, like big nog, the absolute beatings from pride are starting to catch up...wandy was an alltime great, however, so WAS chuck liddel...not every fighter can be like couture, in fact, i think couture and hendo are of a dying breed...loved silva, but one or two punches from leben, who can take a mean shot himself, and its curtains

The axe murderer will attack Leben like a rabid dog and TKO him. Leben can take a punch but Wanderlei is gonna hit him with punches in bunches and Leben will drop!

Prediction: wrong Silva   wrong Decision  

Actually, I think Leben will savagely attack Wandy as soon as the ref cut the leashes, but Wand will get the better of the exchange..

silva will do to leben the same that stann did. hell rock leben to the point to where he turns into zombie leben and then hell put him out with a big hook.

i have no idea which way this will go. a lot will be determined by how old wand is and how hung over leben is.

Prediction: correct Leben   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

I really want Wandy to win, but I think that Leben has the better chin. Wandy was a very tough fighter back in the day, but I think that he is in the same boat as Chuck Liddell. Too many wars, has hurt his ability to take the big shot.

Also Leben has the ability to take the fight to the ground. Wandy's takedown defense isn't the best in the business.
