| Do you believe that if he improves his standup by a good amount, that he will be able to win the MW championship in the UFC? | |

| I think given the correct matchups he could win it with his current skill set.
He's beaten Sonnen who was a cunt hair away from winning the title. Yeah the PED's play a part, but who is to say okami doesn't do the same to Silva (or Belfort) that Sonnen did? And Maia could beat Okami.
Silva's getting old, once he's out of the picture, it gets pretty wide open. | |

| Yep. When Silva's gone, Maia becomes one of the top contenders, and he's a huge threat to Chael and Okami. | |
