but the thing for me is why a guy who has no more than 20 fights with only 1 defense should step in a cage with a already stabilished legend, if a super-fight needs to happen, it will be legend x legend not legend x hype, im not saying hes not good, im saying hes not there yet.


It stopped being hype when he delivered and won the belt. Jones is the real deal. And to simply say Jones has been winning would be a huge understatement.


This.

Also, you want Silva to drop two classes and GSP stay at his normal fighting weight? Silva cuts a lot to get to MW, his most natural class would probably be 205. Jones wouldn't drop to fight Silva, Silva would just fight at 205 since he's done so twice. Make it for the belt, possible first double champion. Epic.

Silva is not a natural lhw. You are confusing walk around weight with the weight he actually cuts from.

He balloons hardcore between camps though.

That's what I was reffering to. Silva cuts a lot of weight to get to MW. I know GSP is a big WW, but idk how much he cuts to 170. Point being, Silva is a much better dude.

That fight will actually happen. I see this thread as more of a dream match scenario.

I can't wait for Sonnen vs Silva, but I'd definitely still rather see Silva vs Jones.

Don't think that means anything other than Mayweather is fighting on May 5.

LOL @ Skip Bayless and Steven A Smith though. SAS almost made himself laugh a few times.

I can't stand either guy (Skip and SAS that is)

ESPN is actually doing a poll similar to this thread now:

Silva/GSP vs Pac/Mayweather
