Condit = Silva.

I don't know man... I'm going to need to see some more pics of Anderson at 205 before I agree to him looking "flabby" I just can't help but think that anyone who tries to pass Anderson off as being "fat" is a moron. Again, maybe I suffer from short term memory loss, so a pic from the weigh ins vs Bonnar would refresh me a little.

Either way, the suggestion that Silva and Condit have the same body type is wrong. They are the same height and have similar reach but Anderson's body is bigger than Condit's.

What weight do you think Anderson will be able to cut from for a 175 lbs fight?

This is the real issue for GSP. He would have to put on a lot of weight to match that advantage, then cut. An advantage he would need to pose his style of fight, on a bigger fighter.

Yawn...
 
Anderson Silva would kill GSP.
Silva defeat and finish steroid fighters like Sonnen and Bonnar with ease.
GSP i like him, i don't want him to get beaten by Silva.
GSP always got beaten so bad and have to win by decision.

period, it's a great super fight but waste of time because we a know AS will beat the shit out of GSP.

Silva vs Jones would be the bestest super fight ever in MMA history.
 
Title reads Condit=Silva. But then he says Condit is not Silva because he's not able to cut weight like Condit.

GSP is fighting at WW. If Silva wants to fight him so bad then he can do that by cutting to WW. Otherwise he should let it rest already. Calling out smaller guys is for douches. Silva would be my hero if he called out Jones.

If you think there is few physical difference between Silva and GSP then please tell me: how do you think GSP (at his walk around weight) would do against Bonnar or Griffin?

Yeah that's right, he'd get dwarfed, rag-dolled, thrown around and laughed at by both of them (big GSP fan talking here).

Silva humiliated both men. He never looked seriously out-weighted, he didn't look weaker or even that small compared to those LHW monsters.

Case closed.

Hmm okay lets use your logic:

Silva got rag-dolled by Sonnen and was taken down at will.

Maia easily took Sonnen down and submitted him.

Thus Maia is much bigger than Silva.



Fact is, Silva is also a very skilled grappler. He doesn't have very bulky muscles but he can control bigger and strong guys in the clinch.

Silva isn't ripped at 205 but he isn't ripped at 185 either.
 
That is not the reason GSP isn't fighting Anderson though.

He isn't fighting Anderson because he is scared and he lacks the confidence in himself to beat the GOAT.

I don't agree with him and i believe he would have a good chance because styles make fights.
 
This arguments been done and done. The Silva haters still say he's to big but Condit is a perfectly fair fight
 
Wait people are actually taking this thread seriously?

Shame on you people.
 
That's the point... same height, similar reach. But they are so terrified to see their wrestler getting KTFO, that they decided to ignore these facts.

I see so many complaining about Silva's size and using that as an argument for Georges to not face him. Here's something to think about:

- Condit and Silva are both 6'2.
- They both have a 76-77 inch reach.
- Both have the same bodytype.

Where's the difference? Age.. At Condit's age, Silva was fighting at WW. Now, at 37, it would be too much to ask him to cut all that weight. Another thing you should understand is that he likes his damn burgers alot, and that he isn't walking around at a ripped 220 lbs. Even at 205 he is somewhat flabby.

I'm a fan of both guys, but it's ridiculous to claim Silva has a considerable size advantage. If you count fat as better than muscle, well then Roy Nelson has an unfair advantage over his division. Just to let all you size-fanatics know.

lol i know, terrible.

It's either Silva fan boys or GSP haters.

I have stopped coming on Sherdog lately because of the overwhelming GSP/Silva threads. I came on today hoping to see something new but I am clearly on the wrong site.

Move on people. There is an awesome card coming up, lets talk about that. You know, real fights, not potential fights that probably won't happen for a number of obvious reasons.

Condit, Anderson, Okami, and Shields were all in that one night tourney at WW back in the day where Anderson got DQ'd for tko'ing Okami PRIDE style.

I'm with you on the size argument, but there's clearly a massive skill difference between Anderson and Carlos. And this is coming from a Condit fan.
 
Silva is P4P best MMA fighter.

Condit doesn't even make the list. So no.
 
Mark Hunt = 5'10 and 74 inch reach
GSP = 5'10 and 76 inch reach
Both stocky body types

GSP is quantifiably bigger than Hunt
Stop ducking HW Georges

The fact that your name is R Palhares shows your lack of credibility. Posing as a fighter is usually an indication of a young teenager. Shush boy.
