I love Sonnen, but he is going fight the same way in which he dominated the first fight (who can blame him) and Anderson would be a fool to not expect the agressiveness and takedowns. He has being training to defend them and I think he will win.

Prediction: correct Silva   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

My anticipation for this fight is ridiculous. Both will hopefully be at the top of their game. Can you imagine if Silva lost? he wants to retire with it, so he'd be in a contender fight. A CONTENDER FIGHT! Man, that'd be weird and part of the reason I'm picking him is I don't see that happening. Chael is so good though I wish he was in the UFC years ago at this level, that would've been great.

after hearing this i am hesitant in either putting this as a early ko or a longer beat down.

Anderson and his threats seems terrifying even over the phone.

Did an interview really change so many people's minds? Of course he has to go in there and give his best. That's the whole deal right? You have to beat the crap out of the other guy, isn't that the business?

It's just what words you use, and we all know that anger isn't a good  attribute in a fight. Motivation is,anger isn't, and we sure know that neither one was or is less motivated in their fight

Silva wins, I'm happy. Sonnen wins, we get a new champ and it stirs up the MW division and I'm still happy.

The thing about this fight is I'm honestly torn on who I want to win. I'm picking Silva because he's a Badass but with that being said I don't like the guy. I don't like his **** fights against Leites or Maia and I was cheering my ass off their 1st fight cuz I wanted someone,anyone, to beat him. That guy was almost someone from Oregon, a dude from my local MMA powerhouse Team Quest. But then Chael lost and started his bigotry laced smear campaign and I fell off his bandwagon. At first it was funny but then it got old and played out. I love how he fights, always coming forward with the pace we expect from Team Quest fighters and he's not afraid of Silva one bit. I still want someone to takeout Anderson but I'm not sure I want that guy to be Chael.

yeah I'd take that, how about a 4 1/2 round war and a brutal K.O. in the final 30 secs? that's how I hope most fights turn out.

I'd like to see Silva rock Sonnen with anything flashy, land a double leg, and GnP him unconscious in the dying minute of round 5..

Never gonna happen.  I honestly don't know how this fight will play out, can't wait!

Prediction: correct Silva   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 2  

Last time Silva fought Sonnen, he had 3 boring wins in a row. Facing a possible layoff despite wins, I think he decided to spice up his career by dragging this one out. It may have gotten further than he thought, but in the end, there's only one thing that matters - it didn't make it to the judges. If Sonnen can dominate for 23 minutes and still not finish his opponent, evne when juiced, there's something wrong. He doesn't deserve to be there. And for those who argue it was medical steroids, I ask - what doctor prescribes 17 times the normal amount of testosterone to "normalize" a man's allegedly low testosterone count? None. I believe Silva will walk through him, and embarrass him the same way he did when Demian Maia made the wrong comments about him. I'd love to see Chael leave looking just like Rich Franklin, or worse. After all the comments, all the steroids, and the recent conviction for fraud and embezzlement - couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
