Lyoto didn't go to decision with Ace. he KO'd him early in the 2nd round

I think Rich just has too much for Anderson , that is if he fights a smart fight... Stand up and trade, take him down and tire Silva out. Rich will be the much bigger fighter and if he makes silva hold that weight for three rounds I see him tiring out. And Rich should be able to win in the championship rounds.

I have to agree with Donny, Rich's wrestling and BJJ are good enough to keep Silva on his back and atleast enough striking to survive with Silva on the feet.
I see Rich working leg kicks and jabs until he can get the clinch and a greco takedown and then just wear on Silva.

as for Ace vs Spider
Spider isnt the easiest guy to beat on the ground, just ask Horn.. its a struggle keeping him down and its a struggle finishing him, he can KO you from his back and maybe we'll see what that black belt in JJ (under both NOGs) has done for him. Standing.. I give the distinct edge to A. Silva, has Rich fought any better standup fighters then A. Silva? dont think so, A. Silva's boxing and muay thai is too good and Franklins Chin is too weak.. game over if it stays standing, Rich can win it on the ground but it wont be easy
overall.. I say A. Silva WINS cuz Franklin is way too confident in his standup game.
