I like Anderson Silva and I think he is awesome. I really hope he considers moving up to Light Heavyweight, because he has just about ran through his division. He should make the move should he defeat Vitor Belfort and Yushin Okami. But I am going to have to give it Belfort. I like rooting for the underdog and hopefully he takes it.

I predict Franklin would win it by SD.

Jon Jones will win it via awesomeness. Although I question the UFC tactic to put two rising MMA fighters in a fighter together. Seem like to me, they could have fought someone else, but oh well.

Miguel Torres will win it by KO of the mullet.

I take that bet. Even though I know Silva will probably win, but who knows stranger things have happened. Sonnen did dominate Silva for 4 rounds before being submitted. Hopefully Belfort saw what Sonnen did and will able to emulate or use Silva's flaws against him.

Hmm...the thing about the Griffin and Franklin is that it could go either way. Even though I think Franklin is the smarter fighter ya know, but who knows. Anything can happen. So nah, LoL, I just stick with the sig bet. By the way, are you member of the UFC forum or any other MMA forum?

I think Silva needs to go up to 205. Since he's fought there before, there are many many fights there. Rampage, Couture, Machida, T Silva, Evans, Jon Jones, etc. I'm not sure why no one talks about this.

I agree. Can you imagine Anderson Silva vs. Jon Jones, it would be amazing! Of course, everyone is clamouring about GSP vs. Anderson Silva, I for one, do not want to see that fight. Because honestly, Silva would destroy GSP.

Whoever wins the bet has to put their sig or avatar to the other person's liking. Like if I win then Cloudy has to put his sig or avatar to whatever I say and vice versa.

Silva won by an awesome kick to the face of Belfort in the 1st round.
Jones won via submission and he has earned the right to fight Shogun for the belt in March.
Forrest won via UD

Torres and Banuelos fight was uneventful and should have been the undercard.

rashad is injured or something, that's why they gave it to jones. it's a little early but i think he can pull it off. it'll be his first real test imo.

Yeah Rashed got an injured knee. I thought it was weird seeing Shogun in the crowd ya know. But I figured it was probably for support of either Belfort or Silva. It will definiately be a good fight. One fight that I think Jones will win. Of course, he doesn't have that much time to train, but he will do fine.
