Thiago Silva vs Brandon Vera targeted for UFC 125

looking forward to this bout.

I'll like Thiago to win big in this fight.

I like this fight.

Over most of their careers I'd take Brandon Vera by murder but they seem to be headed in opposite directions lately.

I'm concerned about Thiago's back injury lingering around for the rest of his career. I like him in this fight though

I'm actually leaning towards Vera here...it seems like everytime he fights i lean towards Vera and get burnt but one more time.

That was three packs of cigarettes, two sleepless nights, one fight ago for me.

I'm going with Thiago in this one.

This should be a fight where Vera is able to feature his striking skills. should have alot of length in his favor. I think thiago proves very hittable in this one.

I think Vera comes out cautious and Thiago comes out blazin and makes it count. I think we will see a very active Thiago smother Vera.

The Thiago that fought Antonio Mendez and Tomasz Drwal would have lost even to Vera at his least inspired but he really has upgraded himself as a fighter in bouts with Evans and Jardine.

I am taking Vera!
