Prediction: correct Silva   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

Okami has a pretty good chin, and will wrestle a bit with him.  I think it goes to decision.

Prediction: wrong Okami   wrong Decision  

@piercerdan I hear ya about defending Silva. It's tough to defend a guy who wears pink shirts and wears his hat like a 14 year old punk kid. Also the fact he prances around the octagon like Elton John and and hides behind referees. Then bows and talks about how much he respects his opponets and mma..........give it a rest Silva!!! He's the greatest striker/mw ever but he's also a fraud when the camera is on and I really really hope Okami pulls this off.

Anderson is just about as phony as every other "PRIDE" fighter. I mean for christ sakes he is mad at Okami for training with Chael! Andy better pack his bags and hand in his pink slip because Okami is going to finish what Sonnen started. @p4p I hear you about the dancing brother, after Okami retires him he should go on dancing with the stars because the octagon is not the place for the pink flamingo shirt wearing brazilian bad ass that is Andy Silva.

the only way Okami can win is if he can keep Silva on the ground like Sonnen did and hope Silva doesnt get the sub, Im not really that big of a Silva fan and some of his fights really pissed me off, but when he wants to be he is the most dangerous guy in the world, and he was my first pick in the 2nd draft so I need him to win

Prediction: correct Silva   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 4  

"Also the fact he prances around the octagon like Elton John and and hides behind referees."

Don't forget how he hides under the ropes, uses foreign objects when the ref isn't looking and spraying green mist at his oppenents to blind them...Oh wait this isn't pro-wrestling ¬_¬ almost a shame because a b.W.o (Brazilian World Order) shirt would be awesome. 

And how dare Silva does footwork inside the octagon. Dosen't he know that he should always be flat-footed and moving in a straight line, tut tut.

I think when you've established a run like Anderson Silva has, you can get away with wearing pink shirts and wearing a hat like a 14 year old (o_O).

Saying Anderson Silva dosen't respect his opposition and MMA is like saying GSP flips the middle finger after every match.

@mystical Rashad has outstanding footwork. But Rashad doesn't run around like an idiot. SIlva has great footwork when he wants. Nobody gets excused for wearing pink shirts and crooked hats when you're a 36 year old man. Anderson says one thing and acts like another. He says he respects his opponets but what he did against Maia was a disgrace to himself and the sport. GSP is the face of mma because he walks the walk. When it comes to class there is no comparison. GSP over Silva by a mile in the class and respect department.

GSP is P4P the most classy and respectful guy. No one can touch him in those regards.

I still think Anderson is a guy who does respect his oppenents and MMA overall and while he has had some facepalm moments he is still great for the sport.

No matter what, I'm picking Silva by KO, but if there ever was a time for there to go hunting for that heavy underdog award, this would be it.

If and when Okami beats Silva, Brazil would go in to such a rage they might go back to being a 3rd world country!

I'm going with Okami. Mostly because he saw what Chael did to Silva, and on top of that, Silva's last loss was a DQ to Okami...they've both been in the UFC for years, and yet Silva hasn't asked for a rematch. Something's fishy, I think Silva might be worried about something

@Jerry I totally agree. Andy cheated to get out of the first fight, I wouldn't be surprised if Yushin won via DQ Groin strikes or maybe he took a page out of Bisping's book and learned the illegal knee.

I understand liking Chael and thinking he's hilarious but...c'mon guys. Saying Anderson cheated to get out of the fight is ********, Anderson pulled of another one of his one-of-a-kind KO's on Okami, but it just happened to be illegal.
