Thread: Anderson Silva vs Fedor Emelienko

I am confident that 8 times out of 10 Anderson's stand up beats Fedor's and given the fact that he has greatly improved his jui jitsu since the Travis Lutter fight I give him a better than 50% chance against Fedor on the ground even a t hw.......maybe even 60%.The only thing Silva really has to worry about with Fedor is the ability of Emelienko to literally be strong enough to be able to force a submission on his opponet like he did...

I agree with a lot of what you are saying, except for the Fedor and Mayweather comparison.  They really couldn't be any more different. Fedor is willing to fight big dangerous opponents - Mayweather ducks dangerous bigger guys like Cotto. Mayweather is all about the money and flaunting it - The money is secondary to Fedor Mayweather has rarely been in danger in any of his fights, while Fedor has been in dangerous spots and looked mortal...

you guys crack me up seriously! what is anderson going to do run around the ring and throw jabs to win..are u insane, if rogers cant knock him out 265-270 pound guy u think anderson is going to? How does anderson then win then, going to the ground, your insane again....im not saying silva isnt legit or a top 3 fighter..but he would get owned end of story....silva said himslef in a few clips ive seen online he would never fight fedor hes too...

After Fedor Rogers I think if you didnt learn one thing you are hard headed....Fedor cant beat Brock now...Well let me say Brock should see the simple game plan...Clinch with Fedor take him down...You dont have to worry about being submitted....Fedor just wont be strong enough to submit Brock period...He tried on Rogers and really not even close....If Rogers was in better shape the second round like Brock is...Just clinch again and take him...

because he is good nough too......simple,the same way he is good enough to dominate 2 weight classes and if Dana allows it good enough to dominate 3 weight classes if he ever fought Mir lol.    If he was so good he would not cut and fight at his natural weight.

Silva has a 3 1/2 inch reach advantage and a 2 inch hieght advantage.  the last time i remember him being on his back was when he caught lutter in the triangle - but the coolest thing he did off his back was against yushin okami http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxELudYYTq8     wasn't that an illegal blow and cost anderson the match?     Yes it was.
