It would be hard to deny that most people who fight Silva get scared
and/or intimidated before/during the fight.
One reason why I think an Igor matchup would be so interesting is that
based on the monsters that Igor have fought in the past (who could lay
down the hurt real quick), I am guessing that Igor wouldn't really be
that scared or intimidated to fight Silva.
When you fight Silva, you have to be able to stand up to his striking
and be able to strike back.
Could you think of someone more qualified for the job?
With a record of 45-7-1, Igor has gone up against guys like Kerr,
Crocop, Goodridge, Coleman, Inoue, Yvel, Overeem, Sperry, several
very big Russians...and let's not forget about Varelans.
The only weakness I see is Igor getting clinched and knee'd by Silva.
Then again, I see Silva's weakness in how he might handle getting a
few Igor punches to the head.
