Prediction: Silva  |  Submission  |  Round 1

It blows my mind how big of an underdog Bigfoot is on tapology. I'll be picking Bigfoot by submission or TKO via GNP.

Bigfoot isn't good so I guess that means Overeem and Fedor aren't very good then. Also Hunt lost to Sean McCorkle, so please tell me how Bigfoot isn't good but Hunt is.

Prediction: Hunt  |  KO/TKO  |  Round 1

Almost lost to a LHW in Kyle, beat a washed up Fedor, Got destroyed by Velasquez x2, only beat Browne because he blew his knee out, only beat Overeem because of Overeem, got clowned by Cormier, who had a broken hand.

He just i'snt very good. I think Silva has been lucky throughout the recent years in his career. Mark Hunt has been knocking maw****as out, and had a great fight with Dos Santos.

So wait, he loses to the best heavyweight twice, gets knocked out by the person many think will be a champion soon and lost to Werdum who is next in line for a title shot...clearly Bigfoot sucks. Lets look at Mark Hunt his record is 9-8 and if Bigfoot sucks for losing to Cain and DC, then Hunt is ******* horrible by your book then. His biggest win in the UFC is Stefan Struve who gets knocked out in the first round and Hunt couldn't even do that. Most of Hunts wins are against mainly stand up fighters and low level competition. Bigfoot is going to smash Hunt.

If you bring up the 9-8 you lose all credibility, look at who he lost to and take in the fact that he didn't even really train until after the McCorkle fight.

@Live2wrestle Yes, I understand that but Jitz said Bigfoot was **** because he lost to Cain and DC so by those standards that would also make Hunt not good. I don't understand how people say Bigfoot sucks but Hunt is good. Bigfoot isn't going to have a hard time taking him down.

Here's the thing about Bigfoot...he's a legitimate giant...so, you gotta gameplan for that.

That is true, Bigfoot isn't really talented he's just ridiculously large and dense.

I just think it is funny that people are saying Bigfoot isn't that good because of who he lost to yet, say that Hunt is underrated because he has lost to top guys. 4 outta Bigfoot's 5 loses are against top 5 heavyweights.

The stare down for this fight will be about as comical as the stare down between Hunto and Struve was.

If this gets into the later rounds I think Bigfoot has a good chance to win but I see Hunt putting his lights out early.

Always rooting for Hunto but people seem to forget Bigfoot's fights against Travis Browne, Fedor, Werdum, Overeem...The guy is way better than a lot of people give him credit for. Ontop of this, I see no reason why Bigfoot can't take Hunt down and a 290+lb Bigfoot ontop of a cardiovascular challenged Hunt spells death if you ask me.

Hunt may be the Tapology favorite but watch Bigfoot will be the betting lines favorite. Also Hunt is old, even for a Heavyweight and he's coming off the worst beating of his long....Long career, I can't pick him after that, I just can't.

Prediction: Silva  |  Submission  |  Round 3

Nomad I'll give you those wins from Bigfoot except for the Browne fight. Browne got injured and Silva won because of it. 
This match-up really favors Bigfoot. I believe he will close the distance, take Hunt down and submit him but with a guy like Mark Hunt you never know.

Prediction: Silva  |  KO/TKO  |  Round 2

Well Silva prefers position over submission and likes to sling those big ******* Gorilla fists from mount and guard, so I see a TKO not a submission, possibly even a very sloppy decision where both men are completely gassed.

Yeah, yeah Browne ****** up his knee but he ****** up his knee because of who they locked him in the cage with....Conor McGregor ****** his knee up but kept fighting to a win, this happens more than we even know in fights.
