Who should Anderson Silva fight? (if he beats Patrick Cote at UFC 90)
1. GSP. Georges St. Pierre is the top 170 pounder in the world and a battle between these two would be a very entertaining fight. Highly athletic and game opponents would make for a dynamic fight.
2. Chuck Liddell. Somebody is getting knocked out in this stand up battle and that’s always great to watch. These two will provide a very exciting fight.
3. Wanderlei Silva. Two Muay Thai fighters who love to bang. This will be an instant classic, just as with Liddell, somebody is going to be out on the mat when it’s done.
4. Fedor Emelianenko. This is a dream/fantasy fight. Who is the best pound for pound fighter in the world? Only one way to find out. Silva walks around at 220 and maybe some weight can be agreed upon.
5. Shogun. Mauricio “Shogun” Rua is a striking genius at 205 and would make for a great candidate for Shogun to fight.
6. Rampage. Quinton Jackson and Silva can put on a great show for the fans. Indeed light heavyweight has a lot of great potential matchups for the 185 pound king.
7. Matt Lindland. Finally we can see this fight happen and decide if Lindland can handle the heat that Silva has brought to opponent after opponent at 185.
8. Randy Couture. While we’re throwing fantasy matchups into the hat, put Couture in there. His whole career has been dream like and moving down to 205 to fight Silva seems ridiculous perhaps, but with Couture only expect the amazing.
9. Cung Le. These two strikers would make for a classic striking war.
10. Forrest Griffin. He’s the champ at 205, Anderson Silva is the champ at 185. Neither fighter backs down an inch. Sounds like a fun fight.
11. BJ Penn. He loves hopping weight classes from 155 to heavyweight. Penn has an intense desire to be champ at 185, 170 and 155. He should meet Silva at 185 to try and make part of this dream come true.
