Prediction: Silva  |  Submission  |  Round 1

Silva's cardio isn't bad at all considering his size. Between the two I would actually give Silva the advantage there.

Bigfoot has WAY better BJJ and ground n pound plus if JDS can take Mark Hunt down, i'm pretty sure Bigfoot can take him down.

Prediction: Hunt  |  KO/TKO  |  Round 1

In my opinion, Junior Dos Santos has significantly better wrestling than Bigfoot so I don't think that Hunt getting taken down by JDS says anything about Bigfoot.

Bigfoot is gonna throw a right leg leg kick and then Hunt is going to instantly counter with a right straight and put him out.

I am with AnikM. People thinking that because JDS could take down hunt that means Bigfoot can is pretty far fetched. JDS is much faster and more athletic then bigfoot by far. He also a much better wrester then Bigfoot. He was able t stuff Cain through out there last fight. He also was able to out wrestle Carwin and take him down. So I have no idea where this idea came about that Bigfoot is a better wrestler then JDS.

Nobody said Bigfoot is a better wrestler than anyone.. He is a massive human being and strong as hell. He knows how to clinch and drag dudes to the mat.

@MikeLovesTacos XD "if JDS can take Mark Hunt down, i'm pretty sure Bigfoot can take him down."

Sounds exactly like someone is saying that Bigfoot is a better wrestler than JDS.

"He knows how to clinch and drag dudes to the mat."

Yeah...that's called wrestling as well...sigh...

Stating because JDS can do it, so too can bigfoot, at the very least is suggesting there comparable though it seemed people (you) where indicating he was better. Either way, bigfoot not remotely the wrestler or athlete that JDS is. So using JDS as an example for why bigfoot will get Hunt down is piss poor reasoning.  Also Hunt likely as strong if not stronger then Bigfoot

Bigfoot does have a large target in his chin so I sometimes think about changing my pick to hunt.

Bigfoot doesn't have the same punching power that JDS does, so I don't think he can knock him out. However, that JDS KO could have opened up Pandora's box. Happened before with fighters like Liddell and Wandy. Both were damn impossible to KO until they got that one big KO loss.
