They keep setting Brown up against these young bucks (Jordan Mein and Stephen Thompson) and Brown is continuously victorious.
However I'm going with Silva. I think his athleticism and creativeness serves him well in this fight, while Brown plows forward.

Too bad they didn't wait for Robbie to finish with Hendricks and then make this fight if Robbie lost.. Oh well.
This fight might be good. If Matt can get right back into the same head space he was in, he should be too well-equipped for Erick. Erick is finding the UFC isn't as easy as he once imagined it would be.
I gotta go with Matt Brown by KO in the 3rd, after Erick starts to wear out.
Can't help being disappointed that Matt will have to wait to get someone higher ranked. But I guess his injury is responsible for that. But if Matt wins, they must give him someone higher up the food chain. I still want Brown vs. Lawler at some point. Brown must not be made gatekeeper.

Can't blame the UFC either for not getting a higher ranked guy for Brown. All the other top 15 WW's are booked currently except for Rory and Dong-Hyun, but I could see both not wanting a quick turnaround while having to train for a five round fight.
Maia and Kampmann are two fringe top ten guys in the division that are available, however both are on a multiple fight losing streak, hard to see them in a main event fight against a guy on a six fight win streak. Maia and Kampmann should just fight each other.
Good things will happen to Brown with a victory over Silva.

I see this fight being similar to Brown's fight with Mein where he was hurt but ended up rallying for the TKO

Who would make more sense logically. Perhaps I believe the E.Silva hype, because I consider him a top 15 WW.
