    I really debated about starting a log. This journey gets very personal at times. It's hard to announce to the world things you didn't even want to admit to yourself. But that's why I did it. It needed to be right in front of me so I could deal with it head on. And I needed support to get through it. Who would have thought I'd find that here of all places. :lol: But I did. These guys have been a great help and encouragement through some tough times for me and they probably don't even realize it. - Pagangoddess

That look like one starving man.

Apparently not.

Griffin must be in crying now, especially after that knockout!

Anderson Silvas back. I think the only fighters that can challenge him now are Lyoto Machida, Wanderlei Silva, GSP and Brock.

Brock though seriously??? -_- and I think GSP is too small and Silva would demolish him. GSP also seems to have trouble with good strikers ( Matt Serra, BJ) and Silva is light years ahead in striking then them so... You do the math.

I think Silva needs to stay in the LHW division.

^ Why not Brock. I mean some ppl are calling for Silva-Fedor. If that can happen then surely Brock can.

Fedor can easily go down to LHW (he fights at around 220ish), with Brock lol, there is no way he can cut down that much (I mean, that dude had to CUT weight to make HW lol....I'm Canadian and I love GSP, but he would be destroyed by Silva....Machida is pretty much the only real challenge, and Silva says he will not fight him.

Well, Silva would have to go up to heavyweight to fight Brock or Fedor. I don't think Fedor would want to cut down (he usually weigh about 230) and Brock simply can't.

I don't think Silva can beat Fedor. I don't see it happening. I would say Fedor by submission.
