Plus, he's been training with Steven Segul lately, so that there is a sign that he's lost his mind! I agree Jeff, Silva needs to lose to refocus himself.

I'm pulling for Chael too. We need a new champ. No more, one that fights hard the entire fight! Rick. I’m pulling for Chael too. We need a new champ. No more, one that fights hard the entire fight!

I think if Sonnen can Score a takedown and ground and pound in a careful way he can pull of the win. I'm hoping he pulls it off. Anderson antics in several of his last fights drove me crazy! I agree with you that Alves is hungry to win and I'm glad he was able to get himself healthy again. Jorge, it will definitely be tough for Sonnen because Silva always come in very confident.

He is such a complete fighter that I do not see how Sonnen can have a chance. In the Fitch-Alves fight is very dificult to call, but I will go with Alves. Fitch is very tough but I think that Alves is very hungry and motivate now after all he past thru. No doubt that Anderson will take this fight. He is such a complete fighter that I do not see how Sonnen can have a chance.
