This dude is tough, he has some great wins inside and outside of the octogon. He's knockout guys like Roy Nelson(Dos Santos couldn't), Ben Rothwell, Vladimir Matushenko, Paul Buentello and the list goes on. If he just builds himself up from the pace he's at right now, he'll be back with a contract. All he needs to do is train hard and not get hit on that not so great chin of his. I want to see Mir vs Arlovski, we were robbed of it years ago, due to Mir motorcycle accident. Would have loved to see Couture Vs. Arlovski.

the funny thing is that once a fighter has reached a certain level of notoriety he has to do exceptionally well to stay in the ufc. Think about guys like Efrain escudero and Kendal Grove. Both in the spotlight from their tuf conquests, and both released from the ufc following losses. In my opinon these two are far and away better than a lot of fighters competing in the ufc currently, but with great notoriety comes great responsibility. Same goes for Arlovski

yeah for reals, wanderlei has been knocked out by jackson once, and by leben once. Haaaaaardly reason to call for his retirement or to say that he has a glass jaw

The KO at the hands of Leben wasn't any more brutal or fast than the one at the hands of Belfort years ago. Silva's chin hasn't changed, its just that when a world class slugger hits the button, the lights go out

that's how come i said "slugger". Maybe he's not exceptional technically, but he has put a way a lot of high level dudes with those hands. Tell me no

Still would think the Wanderlei of old would have been able to go toe to toe with him in the pocket....Hmmmm..Cung le vs Chris Leben...That would be entertaining though maybe after the first round a bit one sided for Leben.

As for Wanderlei, he clearly gets knocked out more easily than he used to. He's had a lot of fights, been knocked out cold several times, and as @mysticalninja said, guys were also rumored to be knocked out all the time at Chute Boxe. It's safe to say Wandy has been KO'd 10+ times and maybe a ton more. He used to be able to wade forward like a monster and could take a good shot. Now every single blow from Cung Le looks like it might put him out.
