Just a little more perspective.
SIlva beat 5 champions (Pride, Strikeforce or UFC), DJ only 1.
Silva finished 79% of his opponents that he beat, Johnson only 44%
Silva beat 5 fighters that might be considered Top 50 all time, Johnson 0.
Basically, Silva has faced much better competition, finished many more of his fights, was a bigger draw and had a greater impact on the sport and it's not close.
