silva has never really done all that well against people who feint and don't just chase him around. i think adesanya would be a nightmare matchup for any version of anderson tbh

If Silva could take him down, he'd have a good shot, but Silva is nit a good wrestler and Adesanya is pretty hard to get and keep down. Other than that Adesanya is basically a better version of Silva that can throw combinations.

I can't imagine Anderson a) getting a hold of Adesanya or b ) taking him down if he does. He's never been all that good at exploding to cover distance in the first place and he doesn't move forward unless you're already messed up. In short, we have a man in his 40s who's been fighting professionally for 20 years and is coming off several losses against a bigger, world class kickboxer in his 20s. Yeah.

I was talking prime Silva too, not in his 40's and suspended twice Silva

Let's not feed ufc's ideas. These guys are both overhyped. I don't wanna see two overhyped fighters fight each other, cos it doesn't prove anything. They are test fights essentially against other fighters who are testing. Does a win say anything for either fighter? No! These guys are yet to prove themselves. I want either of them to fight anyone who an really test their metal. Personally, I'm fed up of being fed these 'promotional' fights. Lawler vs Askren....now that is a deadly match-up that proves loads on either side; they both stand to win or lose- EVERYTHING.

i want to see Adensanya fight Yoel Romero or Chris Weidman, only then we can find out how good he is. we have established he is great at striking but is his striking going to as great when he fights someone with legit takedowns?

to me it seems like he will get the easier match ups all the way to the top because that is how the ufc rolls unfortunately...
