Magny too explosive and athletic.

Compared to a guy like Chris Weidman, sure. But he's nowhere near Magny's level of athleticism.

Magny doesn't strike me as a particularly gifted athlete. If anything Silva is the gifted athlete here. Magny is just a hard worker with good all around skills. Silva by submission.

Prediction: correct Magny correct Decision

I think Magny will win. Silva will, like usual, completely gas himself in the first five minutes, and I think Magny will be able to survive like he did vs. Lim. I like this fight a lot though. i preferred the Story fight, because Story was finna knock an overrated Brazzo silly, but still. I'll take it.

Don't know how I feel about who will win this fight. I'd be more confident picking Magny if he didn't take this on such short notice.

I feel like Magny can survive the first with his range advantage by keeping Silva at bay, then capitalizing on a gassed Silva in the third and potentially finish him.

If Silva can't get Magny out of there withing 1.5 rounds he's a goner ... Magny's hard to finish ... yet I picked Silva ... 0_o

Anyone watch the weigh-ins?

Silva look any different?

Let's just say he doesn't look like this anymore:

@ben, I was just saying that to a friend last night ... that these last few fights he's been coming in ... let's say softer ... at least for this fight he looks not as ripped but in shape, slimmer ... looks like his body has finally acclimated to his ... strategic career choice.

Those love handles are great for grabbing onto in the clinch and also just for hugging.

Wow, Magny was fighting on like a week notice after losing a fight right before that and Silva still lost. Dude never ceases to disappoint me.
