Silva Vs Griffin @ 205

[ATRAIN]

A-Train Silva looke horrible against Cote. He may have been playing with him but he still looked bad. And who has Silva ever beat in this weight class that is elite?? I'm beginning to wonder if Silva has head on retirement and boxing Roy Jones to the extent it is messing with his training and performances. One can say "Well this fight will fire him up" and it probably will but Forrest is one tough SOB!!

He knows he looked terrible against Cote and he wanted to show that against Leites, but Leites was fighting like a and kept falling to his back. Silva looked like he was toying with him. Yes Silva hasnt smashed up the guys his last 2 fights but agaistn Leites he didnt get a chance cause whenver he was about to start up some offense Leites crawled up in little ball in the corner. I am not discounting Forest at all as far as his skill level, I just dont think he is anywhere near Silva's level at this point in their careers.

Anderson never fought Shogun...

Yeah I know im confused today. For some reason I was thinking Shogun instead of Leites. I guess cause they both fought on the same card.

I think Silva will win but again...why people continue to knock Forrest and make excuses for his wins are beyond me.

I dont knock Forrest and I have never made excuses for his wins. He did his homework against Rampage for sure, he looked great in that fight. Shad I had a feeling he was going to lose and I picked Shad to win. Do I think shad is a better fighter. No, I just dont think Forest prepared the same way he did for Jackson. Maybe he will go into the Silva fight having done his homework again, then he can shock the world but I dont see that happening. I think both fighters have something to prove at this point.

Atrain I am kind of making general statements based on other sites and forums. My comments aren't specifically directed at you. You know your thing and you explain yourself.

yeah I know im just making my point. I like both fighters and would like to see Forest make another le run. I would like to see Silva dominate the way he has in the past. I hope its a barnburner when the two lock up. Maybe a loss is what Silva needs right now. Either way Brock would crush both of them at the same time

Again, something everyone said before he fought Shogun and Rampage. I know it's early, but I'm giving him my underdog pick once again. Although, we'll have to wait until the odds come out before we know whether he's even considered an underdog.
