Brown/Silva would be a perfect opening fight of a main card.

Means is back? Cool. Talk about a dude who "loses" fights after dishing out ass whoopings...

Dude needs to eat a burger. If I can see your ribs and you punch and get punched for a living, you're trying to get a physical advantage by fighting in a lower weight class. I hate the principle of it. I would never bully smaller children.
But I like watching him fight.

Idk if that's necessarily true. Maybe it is for him but look at a guy like Condit. You can see his ribs and I definitely don't think he should be at MW. I think its just a body style thing. For example no matter what i do I'm going to be more Condit than Hendricks.

I only really have a problem with it, being serious, when guys walk around 30+ pounds above their weight class.

Joe Rogan argues that it goes against the spirit of martial arts. Honestly, thinking of such fights as Rumble Johnson vs Charlie Brenneman...kind of hard to disagree.

Man, i know we fight fans should be happy for a free card on TV, and that big names don't always mean better fights, but i wish they'd do a better job on these 'fight nights' with regards to bigger names.
While Brown vs. Silva may end up being a great fight - On paper this is a very underwhelming main event.

Surprised the finish took so long...........Brown looked really vulnerable he was crumbling after every hit to the body. Mein and Wonderboy hurt him badly to the body too he just has a glass body lol. Still not convinced hes an elite fighter sorry. Top 10 ww for sure but not in the Hendricks/Lawler class and is also below Woodley/Lombard/Rory
No surprise Erick lost knew he wouldnt do much a long time ago. Stick a fork in em hes done and hes no spring chicken either will be 30 by the next time he fights. Huge bust
