I think Dana White will put together another Silva Vs. Sonnen rematch. As much as I hate his mouth, Sonnen is the only fighter that put up a fight against Anderson. And yes, Sonnen was on roids, and yes Anderson was injured during their last fight BUT... I think Anderson can beat everyone in his weight class even if he is injured.

I think GSP would get smashed even at a catch weight. I think a better "what if match" would be Jon Jones Vs Anderson at a catch weight.

Sonnen or maybe Dan Henderson. Stann gets a shot if he wins IMO.

I would like to see a rematch with Sonnen and even Belfort. A lucky KO kick does not satisfy my curiosity with that match up

I feel the same way. It's amazing how Anderson bobs and weaves and almost hypnotizes his opponents. He moves his hands around, moves from side to side, almost like a snake. Then he tags you with a stiff jab, or leg kick. I think Chael is right that you have to take the fight to Anderson, you can't wait and let him find his range.

I wonder how Vitor would have done if that front leg kick didn't land?

i think gsp will be able to take him down and grind out a decision

Just my thoughts but GSP doesnt stand a chance. He relies too much on his strength and conditioning to win. Anderson is MUCH bigger and GSP won't have time to wear him down if Anderson comes in ready to kill (Franklin twice, Irvin, Forrest, Okami, yada yada)

I think this could be a great fight as well, but I'd say give him Shogun or Rampage first
