This is an interesting matchup I think this card is shaping up pretty nicely.I wonder know if the rumoured Alves Deigo match still goes ahead on this card and I also wonder with Thiago now tied up who is going to be Wand's next opponet.

I like Thiago too. He is aggressive and an exciting fighter that finishs fights. Machida has so much talent, but is very bland and boring IMO - I don't enjoy watching him fight.
I hope for a big win for Thiago, but my brain tells me a boring decision win is in store for Machida.

I am hoping for a Thiago win. I just have a sinking feeling that Machida by decision.

Smoogy, what the fuck do you mean by dirty work?
This is a very good fight, identical records, both working up for title contention. I hope Thiago goes balls to the wall, I so desperately want to see Machida in a barn burner type fight.

Fan of Thiago but I'm gonna go Machida TKO in the second. Agressive Silva in first round but unable to get it done, Machida starts to catch him in the second and finishes it on the floor.
That or a decision for Machida.
