If he dropped to MW he would wreak havoc. I would easily pick him over Sonnen, Okami, Munoz, Bisping, and probably even Vitor. I honestly don't know if I could be that confident in Silva beating him either. Evans has never been swept, his hands are quite good (much better than Sonnens), his defensive wrestling is top notch, and his footwork/speed is great.
He is a small LHW that carries around a decent amount of body fat into each fight, he could make MW no problem.
