So here’s what needs to happen to stir the UFC pot. First, I must say that even though a Shane Carwin vs. Brock Lesnar is on the horizon – UFC fans can say the that the Lesnar drama is getting old and there is a need for a new commotion. Chael is a solid contender and with his tactical wrestling skills, he will challenge the Spider’s grappling abilities. Has anybody seen the Spider on the ground much at all? Well I haven’t seen much eaither. It may put a new perspective on things. If any fighter can get in close to Silva, then we gotta good match. If they stay out then they are going to catch the long reach in the jaw and the TKO goes to the Spider.

So like Brock being humbled by Carwin (which never happend but I was personally tuned it to see it – God knows Brock is a baby) Chael has to lay down the law on Silva and give him a dose of “holla back biotch”. But on the flip side I like watching Silva fight. Hopefully the fight will not be one way and we will whitness the ground game from Silva that is rare to see and Sonnen surely will have favor in the given situation.

So Chael, make us proud – you’re the underdog taking on a top-notch fighter with a growing ego. Bust the bubble that we call a head and go to the top. We are all watching, listening and waiting for the results. Don’t let us down.

Anderson Silva UFC Fighter

PRIDE Fighting Championships and Cage Rage
In 2002, Silva began fighting in PRIDE. In his first fight with the promotion, he stopped Alex Steibling with a cut resulting from a high kick. In his next match, he won via decision against the “Diet Butcher” Alexander Otsuka. At PRIDE 25, Silva faced former UFC welterweight champion Carlos Newton. Newton tried to shoot in on Silva, but was hit with a flying knee. Newton collapsed and Silva finished the fight with strikes, winning by technical knockout.

At PRIDE 26, Silva faced Daiju Takase. Considering his record at the time – with only four wins to seven losses – most predicted that Takase would not win. Surprisingly, Takase submitted Silva with a triangle choke late in the first round.

Don’t get me wrong Silva is not on steriods.  I am refering him as a great fighter using steriods as an expression.  Just thought I’d clear that up first.

On February 3, 2007, Silva defeated The Ultimate Fighter 4 winner Travis Lutter by submission in the second round via triangle choke at UFC 67. What was to be Silva’s first title defense since defeating Franklin in October 2006 was quickly changed to a non-title bout following Lutter’s unsuccessful attempt to make the 185 pound weight limit for the title contest.

Silva successfully defended his title against Nate Marquardt on July 7, 2007 in Sacramento, California on the UFC 73 card, winning by TKO at 4:50 in the first round.

On October 20, 2007 at UFC 77, Silva defeated Franklin in a rematch by TKO in the 2nd round. The fight was in Franklin’s home town of Cincinnati, Ohio and took place at the U.S. Bank Arena

Silva defended his UFC Middleweight Championship against Pride FC Welterweight champion Dan Henderson at UFC 82 on March 1, 2008 in a title unification bout, winning by submission via rear naked choke in the second round.

Silva is undefeated in the UFC, having won all of his fights in two rounds or less.
