Let say Silva fought Randy Couture instead of Forrest Griffin in 09'
Who would have won ?
My first thought was, Easy win for AS, Randy's gettin' KTFO here.
But then, the more I look at it, the more I think Randy's winning this.
If Sonnen can dominate Silva for 4 1/2 rd, Randy also can.
+ Randy got a way better ground game
Anderson never fought a top notch wrestler
I know some of you will say Hendo but stop,
He wasn't a good MMA wrestler at all.
35% TD success, 58% TD def is pretty weak
Still don't get why he wasn't a better wrestler in MMA
Few time national champ and 2 times olympians in Greco
Then you get outwrestle by Rampage...
I know he had back problem and just fell in love with is right hand.
But still.
Anyway...
everytime Silva fougth a guy who pose a threat on the ground
or with wrestling, he perfomed poorly
Ex: Leites, Maia, Sonnen
Lost the 1st Rd Vs Lutter & Hendo
(No need to talk about Weidman or DC)
So Sherbros, who takes it?
