It's a bold move, IDK how anyone can pick against Silva. But that guy who does and gets it right will have the largest upset pick in the history of tapology!

Prediction: wrong Okami   wrong Decision  

I couldn't help it, I've picked Okami..  Every minute I get distracted and want to log back into Tapology to change my pick, but I'm sticking with it.   We'll see what happens.

I don't think Okami has the chin and grit that allowed Sonnen to do what he did to Anderson.

@AnAlias..   I think he's got a lot of grit, but I agree he probably does not have enough; especially to stay away from Anderson's creative and beastly striking.  The Spider wins this fight 19/20 times.  But I'm still sticking with my pick.

Oh for sure, I didn't mean to knock Okami.  He's a very tough fighter.  I just don't think he can go full Terminator the way Sonnen can.

I can't conceive of a single way Okami wins this fight (unless Steven Seagal was a traitor and switched sides). Andy via BROOTAL KO.

Prediction: wrong Okami   wrong Decision  

@soccer..  I think ghost was probably referring to the Leites, Maia, Sonnen and Cote fights... He looked terrible in each of those fights, but then you've got the Irvin, Griffen and Belfort fights as well... he looked like two completely different fighters.  But I think since Seagal came around, we're not going to see the Anderson we saw against Leites and Maia.

The Leties, Maia fights I see as Anderson giving an eff you to the UFC for putting those guys in the cage with him...He did what he wanted to in those fights and just played with them...I didn't see the Cote fight so I'm not sure what that was other then it sounded like Anderson was fooling around again and he said he was gonna look for a late finish...Sonnen shocked us all!!

I was going to predict another sleeper for Silva, but i think he comes out going for the kill as the hometown favorite! A few lucky TD's will do nothing for Okami in the beginning, leading to yet another Silva KO!

I think Okami will be tough to finish, but I think there isn't any way he wins this fight.

I think the reason Anderson wins so much is his intimidation factor. When Hendo came to fight, he won a round and when Chael came to fight he won 4 1/2 rounds

Exactly...Everyone repects Anderson and thinks (rightfully so) he's the best ever and he then has the fight won before it starts...When guys come wanting to fight him he gets uncomfortable and gets thrown off of his game!
