|  Phillipe Nover
After his pretty solid performance, is he the Anderson Silva of the lightweight devision. Im guess he is since the way he talked about him on the show.

I would guess so. Dana seemed pretty enamored with him. I found it funny that after the fight, his opponent and Mir were basically calling it a fluke. That fight was no fluke. Nover kicked that guy's ass pure and simple. His strikes were very accurate and damaging and he didn't let up at all once it went to the ground. I put him as my favorite to win so far.

Phillipe has been my pick every since he fainted. He is very well rounded. He won that fight with ease. Hell he didn't even get started on his striking. I think Junie hit the nail on the head about Caplan. He had Mir's team fooled on his ability.

what ever happened to saying that someone is talented and has potential? i think it would be more realistic to call someone this seasons diego than calling anyone on tuf the next anderson anderson silva lol but yea nover is a beast i hope he makes it far

funny, before I watched the episode, my dad bought us all balut eggs. LOL when I saw nover prepare some before his fight!! then ate them after watching nover kick ass hahaha
hopefully, nover can be a huge star in the UFC, MMA popularity is starting to pick up here in the philippines, and the ultimate fighter episodes will air on philippine TV by next week
I really hope they aren't counting the chicks before they hatch though and not overhype him.. we all know what happened to CB Dollaway last season
