If this were to happen...who would you pick?

I know it may never happen, but IF it does ever happen. Who ya got? How, when and why?

personally, I think I would take Machida in this fight.

He has the best strking defense in MMA...which would cancel out Silva's striking ability, yet has the capabilty to counter and really hurt Silva.

I think Machida would win the fight via UD.

I pick machida. I think it could go either way but i think if them fought 100 times machida would win over 50 of them. Silva himself gives machida the edge, altho Silva is usually humble about his skills and to my knowledge never refers to himself as the best ever.

Silva has the same defense ability and significantly more offensive ability. Spider wins.

Its pretty much close to dead even. I lean Silva myself

Silva may have the speed advantage on Machida as well.

There would be a lot of boos in this fight. They'd respect eachother and fight kind of boring.

tough call but i'll go with anderson

Machida gets caught in The Spiders Web

Even fight but I'd lean towards Machida.

I went with the Dragon. I think Wolf hit it on the head with a lot of boos . Both would fight from the outside.

I would view it as more of a chess match than a boring fight really. one wrong move and the fight will be over that quick...quite exciting if you ask me.

Ya I misspoke actually. It wouldn't be boring to me. Unemployed fat ass factory worker racist philly fans was more the perspective I was speaking from.

Whats up with this board lately. Seriously how would machida beat anderson?

I've decided that Anderson can't lose to anyone without some sort of slick submission. It's impossible to stand with him. Maybe a huge heavyweight could beat him with some g'n'p, but that's about it.

chorky has seen the light.
