Prediction: correct Fitch   correct Decision  

I'm rooting for Silva but I see a Fitch leg humping decision taking place. Silva reminds me of Thiago Alves who lost 2 decisions to Fitch. Hope I'm worng but I think Fitch takes this one in ugly fashion.

As someone already stated Fitch finished Alves in there first fight.  Also you realise Fitch did not "leg hump" alves as you put it. He dominated Alves everywhere. He beat him standing in the clinch and on the ground. It was not some lay and Pray Fitch was kicking his ass both times.

Prediction: wrong Silva   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

@franklin Erick Silva is not Alves. They clearly finish there fights in way different fashion, they come from two completely different camps, and Silva is more ground savvy. Alves does not have the fast twitch movement Erick has. Alves has trouble with grinders and has trouble circling off the cage, as of where Erick showed he is good at circling out and getting off the cage. They have completely different stances and movement in the cage. I think your gonna be surprised after this fight. Cuz I got it Erick Silva finishing Fitch.

Not to mention fit he's 12 whole seconds of experience after his layoff against Hendricks, than a knee injury, and now he's fighting in brazil of the first time against Team minotauro/blackhouse's top prospect.... Many different factors than just a leg hump.

Were did I compare Eric to Alves?  I never did. My response was purely in response to someone implying fitch beat Alves via lay and pray which never happen. Fitch kicked his ass.

As for this fight. I think Fitch will surprise you and many other. yes he could get blasted and loses but I think he surprise many of you by taking Silva down and showing why he was consider the number 2 guy for years.  Also all the people comparing what Silva did to brennaman and thinking he can easily do the same to Fitch is a mistake. Fitch would beat Brennaman down and there on two completely different levels.

yes I was which was evident by the " " marks.

No I not going to stop it. I dont give a crap if you dont like it. I do it because I want to be as accurate as possible.   Clearly people dont know what others posted because they constantly misrepresent peoples arguements like MMApicker just did to me and what Bill constantly does. I not trying to bash. People make mistakes, but thats the reason i quote. I want to make dam sure I am not misrepresenting others arguments which happen constantly on this forum as it does on every forum.  That what happens when people play telephone things get twisted and misrepresented.

@hdmexiqtioner not to be a **** but don't even try to do jaykool style breakdowns, you obviously don't know much if you're giving a "4" to Jon Fitch in the BJJ department.

Another thing, why did you put a grade beside gameplanning? Gameplans are done by coaches with the fighter, they're done before the fight ever happens and no one KNOWS THE GAMEPLAN UNTIL THE FIGHT HAS HAPPENED. How the **** is one supposed to know the gameplan if they haven't seen it executed?

ugh. only person who should make breakdowns is jaykool, you don't have to like his posts but you know it's always reasonable and well said.

@franklin880088 My bad, sorry did not see that. hahaha... for that than i will ask him... btw when you say you make me lawl, it isn't funny and it doesn't make you look cool, it sounds kind of lame. no offense... and if your gonna quote someone have an @ reply to their name so it doesn't look like you typed it.

@Anikm Thank you for clarifying that, since he couldn't explain it himself.

@knockoutsrock21 What of Erick Silva reminds you of Thiago Silva????
