| Do u not factor in Okami's improvement's LA?
I also think Silva finds a way, probably earlier then later, but Okami is a wrestler, that was able to take Silva down(for whatever the reason)in the first go, is now training with Chael, and is more in his prime years then the first fight.
I hate to think Okami stands a chance, cause only way he wins is by boredom, but the blueprint at least seems to be there. | |

Of course he thinks Anderson will beat Okami. I'm a die hard Spider hater so of course I see the potential for Okami. Objective fans could probably see both sides. | |

| Okami Is a completely different fighter from the skinny skeleton that faced Silva the first time around, you really can't take anything from that first fight and expect it to happen in Brazil | |

| I expect Okami to get mauled. Don't see him having the natural takedowns like Chael does, he's gonna have to do a lot of work in the clinch against the fence to make it ugly. The one thing working with Chael hopefully does is gives him that style of walking right across the cage and getting in Anderson's face like Sonnen did | |
