This is a fight i'm really excited about. Silva and Henderson. To me that's a real super fight. Anderson's ground game is underestimated. I can't pick a winner yet.

Henderson is absolutely right, and that's what i've been saying.
If Hendo comes in w/ cardio & hunger (something I always worry about when he's at MW) then he'll win... if he gets overconfident because he's back down to MW then he will lose. I'm taking Hendo & hoping that his back is 100%, everybody seen how much that slowed him down against Rampage.

I think this is a early candidate for fight of the year.

This is gonna be a great fight. It's really hard to say who will win but i'm gonna go with Silva by TKO round 4.

Hendo is definitely in the top 3 best wrestlers in MMA, I think this is going to be a hard match-up for Anderson. Anderson is going to have to sub him if he wants to win, and Hendo is not Travis Lutter, he won't crawl right into a triangle. his fight is going to be a war wherever it goes. I personally can't wait for this.

What do you mean Henderson is not Travis Lutter? Lutter was drained from making the cut and clearly didn't have the strength to even be competitive in the fight. Sure he mounted Silva, but he never had him in trouble even though people somehow think Silva was in trouble. He didn't "crawl" into a triangle, he got up-kicked in the face first...which could happen to Hendo tbh. I'm slightly defending Lutter here because he gets a lot of shit, even though some of it is deserved for not making weight.
