I also think Silva would knock Jones out. Jones has shown some minor areas of weakness and I think a strong striker and submission artist like Silva would win.

You’re of the opinion that he has the striking and/or submission skills to consistently finish fights against top level competition? I don’t see it. I think he has to grind out fights.

He dominated Koscheck, Alves, and Hardy. I do think if he wanted to, he could’ve easily pushed the action on those fights. Yet he chose to jab or wrestle his opponent to death. I don’t blame him. Why risk getting caught by a desperation punch by your opponent when you can just accumulate non-threatening strikes and takedowns? I get it, but I don’t like it. It’s the same with Jake Shields or Jon Fitch. I understand why you take the cautious approach, but as a consumer I don’t have to watch it. And it doesn’t make a neanderthal to expect fighters to push the action and try to finish opponents. But too many fight fans look at you as if you are a simpleton for wanting exciting fights.

Just got fed up with him playing it safe and then apologize to the crowd afterwards like he gave it his all and just couldn’t knock out his opponent. Yeah right.

Who knows what is next. GSP didn’t dismiss a fight with Anderson Silva, but he did say he would have to think about it.

I’m a huge GSP fan but I don’t know how super this fight would be. Silva has a huge size/reach advantage and has been more dominant in his weight class that GSP has. GSP would be a massive underdog. Doesn’t make nearly as much sense as a Jones/Silva bout.
