It'd be a good idea if they want to put Silva on a two fight skid.
No no
Silva's a prospect coming off a loss, he shouldn't be fighting the strikeforce beast of a champ
Marquardt vs MacDonald/Condit winner
DW said him and Nate are cool and expects Nate to get a big fight. E. Silva makes no sense.
Erick Silva clearly needs a step down in competition, guys on Fitch's level are not good for him right now.
Silva is not ready for the likes of Marquardt. He was competitive against Fitch. Marquardt would overwhelm him to a worse degree.
nate loses if he fights fitch... count on that. so i'm not sure how nate would overwhelm him more.
silva vs nate would be very very competitive.
I think Fitch beats Nate at this point as well. However, I feel Nate has a more versatile striking game than Fitch and would dominate Silva on the ground and tag him standing. He definitely has more power than Fitch.
Erick should be given lower competition for his next fight......this is a guy that if built up correctly, will be an absolute legend of the sport in 10 years time.
But if you hand him champions and killers when he's coming off a loss.....you potentially destroy one of the best prospects in a very long time.
He should fight someone in the top 20, but not top 10.
Why do people keep saying Marquardt wants to FIGHT at UFC 158? He said he was looking to fight one of the WINNERS of the big ww 6 at UFC 158.
