When UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva and former light heavyweight champ Vitor Belfort meet at UFC 126 it will unquestionably be a battle of the two best Brazilian left-handed strikers in UFC history.

But other than that, they have little in common. Silva is a supremely gifted mimic who can seamlessly move from style to style in one sequence. Belfort is a boxing-based striker who throws some of the fastest, hardest straight punches in the sport.

CompuStrike looks at both fighters and the numbers tell the tale:

Silva vs Belfort: Stats Tell the Story VitorBelfortStrikingStats_medium
Here's their breakdown:

CompuStrike Notes

•(Silva's 12 UFC fights - 10 Belfort fights)
•Silva landed twice as many total strikes per fight than Belfort
•Silva landed 10 more leg strikes per fight, attempting 15 more per fight than Belfort
•They combined to attempt just 9 takedowns (Silva 5 of 6 - Belfort 2 of 3) and were successful on 7 in 21 combined fights tracked by CompuStrike
•Silva outlanded his 11 previous opponents 2-1 in total strikes prior to Sonnen fight
•Silva's 11 previous opponents were successful on just 7 of 33 takedown attempts, Sonnen hit on 3 of 6
•Sonnen landed 289 total strikes. Silva was hit with just 208 total strikes in his previous 11 UFC fights combined
•Belfort's last three opponents, (all at 195lbs or lower), were successful on just 1 of 11 takedown attempts (9%). Heavyweight opponents hit on 43% (12 of 28)
•Belfort threw 18 more arm strikes per fight in his last 3 fights (at 195 or lower) than in his previous 7 fights at heavyweight
•Belfort was on the feet for nearly 11:00 of a possible 12:00 in his last 3 fights (at 195 lbs or lower). He was on the ground for 56% of his previous 7 fights at heavyweight
They also point out that Belfort has been inactive for 504 days -- the longest layoff of his pro career.

Gone a tell you a story
Of a long lost Gracie
Well he was really never one to begin with
But he had a great career in MMA
Though at times it has gone adrift
Now the Phenom
Is refocused
And looking to get back back a belt
A UFC one to be specific
But in the end we all know he'll be knocked out.
