    Ken was brought in to lose, Franklin was one of the new golden boys, he was a xyience guy, he was a math teacher, the UFC was pushing for a different image and Rich was one of there guys, Ken was the name, just like when they brought Tank in for Mir

    Ken dropped before the punched landed (it never landed actually) but he pulled it together like a pro

      I call bullshit, because before the fight, Joe Rogan clearly states that this is 'the best Ken Shamrock we have ever seen'.

          Of all of Silva's UFC opponents, no one has had so many people thinking he can finally stop Silva like Yushin Okami does.

          He won't.

            If he fights like Chael did he will win by decision, he has 10X if not more the sub defense of Chael, he isnt as good as Chael wrestling wise but And1's TDD isnt a strong point

            If And1 doesnt catch him early he is getting grinded out by Yushin

              We can assume Anderson won't be fighting with a broken rib this time though.

                What is it you have against Silva? 2 quality wins? At least be consistent with the hate, if you're going to go to bat for Fedor's wins over Hong Man Choi and Tim Sylvia, don't come in here and say Anderson only has 2 quality wins.

                  lol, that's just me being me, I am a And1 fan, but it's some what valid, let's take a quick look, also, I don't think I ever have siad HMC was a quality win or even a good win, that doesnt sound like me

                  Let's look at And1 vs Fedor 'quality' wins or 'best' wins and break them down

                  Silva's greatest win is Hendo easily, which is an awesome win and he finished him, after that I'm not really sure who his next 'great' win is

                  We have Franklin X2, Marquardt, Vitor? Chael? or a LHW Forrest fight

                  The MW division IMO and many others have always said it's been weak, even when people say the HW division is the weakest, I disagree, I believe MW has less elite level guys than HW, but probably just more 'good' guys, actually his 2nd best win was probably against Hayato Sakurai back in the day, who is much smaller than And1

                  Fedor has 3 elite level wins, Nog X2 and Cro Cop, but all 3 decisions, after that you have AA, one of the Coleman wins, Herrings and Big Tim

                  Anyway, it's not that big a deal anymore, And1 has passed Fedor on the all time list, both same age and Fedor has lost 2 in a row

                  Actually, It's pretty hard to figure out who is the GOAT now, it might be Silva by default, I still don't like his comp, but Fedor drops out, GSP has probably the best wins but he can't finish anyone, so it's probably Silva at this point

                    Saku

                    Wand

                          From my list, yours and shoguns we can elimanate a couple

                          Shogun is the best LHW to this point, so chuck and wand are knocked off, Hughes was there but GSP is better, so he is off, so only guys are

                          And1
                          Fedor
                          GSP
                          Shogun
                          I can see Penn for his upper weight success also

                          And than it's Saku, Frank, Royce and maybe Bas of the old schoolers
