If Benson wants to take another fun fight at WW I don't see why this fight isn't an option, like any Erick Silva fight it would be a barn burner. Like always, Silva's got a shot early but if Bendo can weather the early storm I think he takes it from the Brazilian. Bendo wanted this fight to begin with when Saunders dropped out but he was denied the opportunity.

The fight is fun, and if Bendo stays at WW I think he should get his wish. This could main event a Brazilian fight night no problem. What do you guys think?
 
erick had his two straight wins, now back to the losing column!
 
Benson wins any way he chooses.....
 
I would be more interested in Bendo vs Maia as some people have suggested earlier. Far more competitive. Silva would gas after the first round.
 
would be back and forth until erik silva slows down due to benson's pressure and then benson either finishes silva or get a clear cut UD.
 
I rather see Silva vs Ellenberger
 
I still can't understand how Bendo beat Thatch.

The size differential was nearly Rumble Johnson-Charlie Brenneman esque.

In the first round Thatch held Bendo down easily with one hand just like Rumble did to Brenneman at one point.
 
what a fight.
Erick's explosion vs Ben's grind.
 
If Bendo goes back down this fight makes too much sense.

Bendo will take the biggest fight available next vs the highest ranked dude possible, lw or ww. That pretty much rules Silva out. That leaves MJ, Hendricks, Matt Brown. I might forget a guy or 2.
 
Ben is tough as hell. He'd survive the early onslaught & win.
