As Anderson would say, "Kai-ale".
by TKO.

I like the way people think that Chale, who last recored a tko against Casey Uscola over 5 years ago is gonna knockout Silva who has never been tko'd. And people are really talking about favoritism blinding folks? Yeah right.

I could see Chael getting a ground stoppage by overwhelming Silva with punches.

True, because there is never a first time for anything.

I changed my mineI am taking Sonnen. And I think Chael has a little something special forhim. I say he subs his ass.

OU needs to come through with his opinion. Ludo aswell. Looking like Anderson is turning into the NP underdog as of now.

Its hard to beat someone up for 25 minutes, I think Chael needs to aggressively look for subs and chokes early in the fight. If he can get to a dominant position and look for an arm triangle or something he could be in business

I have a feeling Anderson Silva will destroy Sonnen and finish him within 3 rounds.

The thing to still keep in mind about this is Silva has never shown scrambling ability. So we likely aren't looking at a scenario where Chael has to keep repeatedly taking him down. Unless there's a standup, he really only needs one takedown a round and its pretty much a guarantee with his top game that we're finishing the round in that spot

Chael P. Sonnen is from the mean streets of West Linn Oregon. Where gum wrappers are littered, and twins get ONLY one Mercedes... To share..

I'm rooting for Anderson to win. Which I hate doing. I also think Anderson is going to get the finish again this fight. Sub or TKO, not sure. But he will leave his mark.
