and I mean an epic beatdown. Macdonald stand up has shown tons of holes and his chin hasn't looked all that great either.
Silva stuffed a far better wreslters takedowns tonight. Silva would stuff the takedown and Rory would be picking his jaw and teeth off the floor.
he would smash gsp
No he won't
do not underestimate rory
jason73 - do not underestimate roryThis. We haven't seen Rory in even a tiny bit of trouble since the condit fight as far as I can remember. I'd say it would be a very close fight but Rory would edge out a decision.
Thanks for the heads up, McCleo.

Rory got hurt by a punch from Che and I understand how Rory is. I just think he's very overrated. His stand up is not that good and if he can't out muscle you or out grapple you he doesn't look great.
Knick Diaz - This thread makes me incredibly irated.Elaborate.
If that fight happens I'd love to bet you on it
Silva is a great up and coming fighter who's fun to watch but.... C'mon son Rory is an absolute beast!!
smag - Would be a sick foghtAll that needs to be said
Both guys are the future. Doubt anyone really "smashes" either of them.

yeeeeeah right... He out struck him to lose a decision.
Fight would be awesome. I'd pick Silva.
Silva via brutal finish.
what I saw in this last fight was a spaz who would get destroyed by an opponent who also has good offensive skills
Silva looked very good.
Crush McDonald?
I don't know man. Little early for me to commit to that.

No he didnt. Rory rocked Condit early in round 1 but got rocked himself a few minutes later. In round 2 the striking was even, in round 3 Rory landed a few nice combinations but then he got rocked badly by Condits right hands.
If it was point karate i would agree Rory won the standup. And since when is Condit the measuring stick for striking? He has holes in his striking aswell, the difference is that unlike McDonald, he actually has a chin
Gokudamus stole my name -Yeah man Rory totally has no chin. Guy has been KOed so many times.DiazMadeMe BJTheWelshman - Holes in his stand up? <br><br>Rory out struck Condit. Lol. <img src="/images/phone/apple.png" alt="Phone Post" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;"/>

Right now I'm looking at Erick like another Dave Terrell. He didn't look so hot under the pressure Brenneman was bringing. He was clearly the better fighter during the whole fight, but he was giving off some "mighty discouraged" signals when Charlie didn't immediately wilt.
