I'm completely rethinking my previously post about Chael Sonnen... MY GOODNESS! That guy's wrestling is unbelievable.

I'm not saying that Chael will beat Anderson- but I do think that it will be someone with his style that will finally dethrone The Spider. They will have to take him down, rough him up, and frustrate him.

While that sounds to be a completely daunting task, I do think that Chael's will be provide some unique problems for Anderson that we're not used to seeing.

No one will beat Anderson by fighting a prettier and more technical fight than him... He's the best at that type of fight. If you stand and trade with him then you will quickly find yourself with a concussion. However, if someone like Chael can ever taken him down, get side control, and throw short elbows and be brutal. The takedowns have to be rough. They have to frustrate Spider and take him out of his game...

Is it possible? We shall see.

I never got to see the fight last night but what I hear that he pretty much man handled Nate. I agree with u totally I have seen Chael in other fights and he makes good jiu jitsu guys look pretty normal when he puts them on there backs with his wrestling. For sure if and when he fights Anderson he needs to get to the ground as fast a possible our he may not remember parts of the fight that is for sure. Anderson is not a easy guy to get down but Chael is such a good wrestler i think he will beable to as long as he dont get knock out trying.

not to take a page from tron but... I accept your apologies, lol

Sonnen is definitely the top contender after spanking Marquardt - I can't wait to see that fight!

Agreed!

there is no way chanel is wining against anderson silva. the only other person to spank nate was anderson. chanel can take it to the ground he still will not have a chance to beat anderson. he will take a knee to the face trying to shoot and the spider will ko him in the second round.
