I'd rather see the Bisping fight just for the spectacle of the thing. Anderson was injured for the Sonnen fight and there was talk of him purposely wanting to win by armbar, if this is true it doesn't look too hopeful for Sonnen in a rematch. The thing is Anderson is so good he gets bored and does weird things sometimes,  he's balistic when he just goes for the win.

Oh that has to be a load of ****.. He didnt even go for an armbar not that he had the chance he very nearly lost that fight and he was rocked with his hands down so I cant see why he didnt think Sonnen might finish him Id pick Sonnen decision next time around.

I personally think Silva would crush Sonnen in a rematch. Silva was injured, Sonnen cheated, Silva still won, therefore I believe a healthy Silva and a Sonnen with the regular amount of testosterone spells bad news for Chael. Since that fight isn't about to happen anytime soon anyway, I'd like to see Silva fight Stann (who has looked mega scary in his last two fights),  or Bisping fight him next. I would defenetly be down to see him fight Mayhem if Mayhem was able to take Bisping, but thats a big if and would probably still be an undeserving shot for Mayhem if it did happen.

I agree with Yaaspa's spectacle comment. None of the names discussed above has a realistic shot at beating Silva, but I'd at least pay to see Bisping get dismantled. Not because I have any particular dislike for Bisping, I just think his personality would make the fight more entertaining than the other options.

I'm slowly becoming tired of Silva.

How did Sonnen cheat in his fight with Anderson?

@kalibo i said that around the nate marquart fight.  @lynx he tested positive because his epitest to test ratio was high suggesting synthetic test but his actual testosterone levels were normal, suggesting that he does indeed need test injections. Obviously there is more to the story but if your test levels arent above normal you arent usually cheating.
