First off Cote never was winning the fight he bowed out of (and due to his knee should never have been in). Silva studies his opponents and ussually starts slow. He finds his opening and attacks like a Panther in the wild. GSP is a bad man but has not shown the abiltiy or interest to jump weight classes (Silva has put the challenge out there) which Penn has aka both the GSP and Hughs both fights were taken on short notice also. When focused and well conditioned Penn is a better than GSP as we will all see in January. As for Silva vs Penn it would be like predicting Jet Li versus Bruce Lee both bad men but due to circumstance (weight in Penn and Silvas case) we can only speculate who is the best. Silva has yet to be put down in the UFC. Personally I enjoy watching both and until Silva meets his match my personal opiion is Slva is the pound for pound champ..

I also think GSP’s gonna be in a whole lot of hot water when he has to fight guys like Silva, Franklin and Henderson. Okami as well posed a threat with his speed and power.

He was really losing huh. That’s why Cote Tkoed himself. Did You even see that fight! Cote was just trying to avoid getting hit the whole time. He might of scored a couple of meaningless jabs if that!

I don’t think he was on the brink of losing to Cote. I think he would beat both of those fighters and we may get to see GSP vs Silva.

he was on the brink of losing to patrick cote so i would rethink how good little andy silva is before you say that he would destroy the two most well rounded top fighters in the world

I would rethinkabout about the kindof fighter Anderson Silva is before making a statement like that. Well St. Pierre and Penn are both talented fighters, Anderson Silva is in a league of his own. Anderson Silva has never suffered a humiliating defeat because there’s simply nobody out there good enough. St Pierre lost to Matt Serra for crying out load and even though he avenged that loss it shows the St Pierre is far from being the bestt pound for pound fighter ( in my mind at least). As for Penn, look at what Hughs did to him! I just can’t see those kind of things happening to Silva. The closest call Silva had in my oppinoin was that first round of the Dan Henderson fight. I will have to admit that Silva may have been saved by the bell because he was getting pounded on! But besides that Silva has avoided getting caught in sticky situations and will always finish his fights. In all due respect, Silva would destroy both St. Pierre ans Penn.
