Prediction: correct Silva   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Seems like a bad mismatch. So was Valentin Overeem but still...

Prediction: correct Silva   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Mike Kyle fighting on less than a weeks notice doesn't look good for him. Not that Kyle fighting Silva would look for Kyle on a full training camp.

This is crazy! Isn't Silva like 50% bigger than Kyle?

Prediction: correct Silva   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Silva use to be over 300 lbs., he still may cut to make 265, where Kyle has been fighting at 205 lately. Kyle has stopping power, but not near enough notice to even make it competitive. That's just how I see it, but a lot of people have been shocking me lately, more the judges than anyone else, but still.

Prediction: correct Silva   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

I'm not sure I understand this fight as it seems like a ridiculous mis-match. I suppose Kyle has the same chance as any underdog, but I don't see any compelling reason to pick against Silva - by whatever he wishes.

What the heck, everyone's talking smack about Kyle but he's a good fighter and Silva isn't so incredible. Kyle probably loses but what the heck I'll take a flier.

This should be illegal. Either that or they should sell tickets and put it on TV.

Not sure if Kyle has a chance, taking this fight on super short notice.

Prediction: correct Silva   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

I'll take a Bigfoot submission. He's got a good ground game and it might be the safest way for him to approach this fight.
