I like Assuerio and think he's a legit tough guy... I don't think he could drop to LHW though unfortunately. He's too wide and thick IMO. There's one point in his match with Tim Sylvia where he gets Timmy off balance and almost slams him, but Sylvia grabs the cage to right himself. When I was watching it I thought "that could've drastically changed the fight". And I still think that quite honestly... but I digress....

I know Kongo called out Mir, but Mir has Vera coming up, maybe Silva / Kongo in a couple months? All the other upper tier guys seem to be occupied with future fights. I don't know who the hell else he should fight the HW division is a little weak.

They should have TUF 6 be the comeback for HWs and LHW's.Assuerio Silva could be one of many fighters who could be on the show.

I've said this before it would give some depth to the two divisions.They could get some of these guys for HW-Tank Abbott,Gan Mcgee,Assuerio Silva,Cabbage,Buentello,Pe De Pano Cruz,Justin Eilers,Mike Kyle,Wes Sims,Kimo,Ian Freeman,etc.

I have been thinking this as well. I'm still not sure why they even had MWs and WWs in this season. This is gonna be a waste of a championship match when this happens. There is just way too much difference in ability here. You hit it dead on with the need for HW and LHW! Both these divisions are really low on competition. Having TUF 5 with these groups would help bring some excitement to these two divisions. There is also a better chance for one of these guys (in the HW division at least) to actually win a championship fight. I just cant see anyone in this season who I feel has a remote shot at winning a title fight or would even get me excited enough to see the fight.

I agree, i would love to see Silva fight Kongo....Kongo is all stand up and same for Assuerio... I honeslt think Assuerio would win...They must bring him back...

He totally shit it, Chuck. Silva was landing some good shots, and Tim was as well. The thing is when Tim connects and his opponent remains unfazed it seems to really deflate him (from a body language standpoint). I'm serious, if you get to watch this fight in the near future there's a point Silva almost gets a take down but Sylvia grabs the cage so he can't get tossed... I honestly think if Sylvia doesn't grab the cage there is a HUGE difference to how the rest of the match plays out. I recommend watching it, and if you do get a chance let me know what you thought.
