|  Anderson Silva vs. Chris Leben - UFN5
MMAweekly just added this to their rumors section.
Let me be the first to say if this is true....HOLY DOG SHIT!
I got Anderson by murder if it happens, but prior to the homicide it would be an awesome battle.

Interesting match-up. I'm going with the Spider of course. Leben has a punchers chance, but Silva has never been KO'd, so good luck with that. This is an Ultimate Fight Night match I will actually be excited to see. When is UFN 5 by the way?

UFNL5 is shaping up to be a good event. i'm always there to see the final bouts, but these other bouts are bonuses. looking forward to it.

killerinstinct, we got a thread on Menne/Koscheck already. I don't think anyone did any predictions on it though. I would assume Koscheck via boredom after 3.

This could be amazing.
I definitely like Silva in this one, however, Leben has a hell of a punchers chance. He knocked out Jorge Rivera and made it look easy.
I guess it would be a great test to see if Leben can stop the takedown. If he can't, he's all done.
The Middleweight division is stacking up very nicely. Between Marquart, Silva, Leben, Tanner, Horn, etc. Franklin will have a nice challenge when he comes back.

I doubt we see Leben tested the way you think. I highly doubt Anderson tries taking him down. He'll pick him apart standing, Leben will absorb punishment 'til he can't no more, that's when Silva knocks him the hell out.

Looks like you were dead on Boone.
