Its going to be interesting to see Filho’s impact on the MW division when he slides over to the UFC.

timcat…i agree!!!
what has cote done recently other than defeat 4 average opponents…
he should have had to go through franklin..hendo…or atleast okami…before getting his title shot…
if dana is willing to allow this to happen..
then i will not be suprised at all if the winner of bisping and leben get a title shot..
the mw division is slowly going down the drain…
silva is easily dismantling that whole division..
the only guy who seemed to ever have a chance against silva was franklin..and he has been destroyed!!!!!!!!!!!!
but imagine if cote were to win!!!
man..that would be crazzzzy!!!
what do u guys think will be the bigger upset…

serra def gsp …. or
cote def silva!!

!?!??!???

Gunslinger:

Cote is not going to beat Silva. I agree with you, he don’t even deserve a shot anyway.

Franca is a tough dude. Did anyone see tose knees he took from Sherk? Devistating. My God it would have killed a horse. Franca will win hands down.

cote cant beat spider and i dont think cote deserves a shot anyway…he should have had to beat a top contender first…like marquardt, kampmann, bisping, okami or dean lister first…and all these guys i believe would destroy cote

This probably will be do or die for Franca. He had a nice run of wins and it’s no disgrace to lose to Frankie Edgar or Sean Sherk, but if he loses this one, it’ll be 3 in a row. It seems like when a fighter gets 3 losses in a row, he goes to the bone yard.

franca has never really appealed to me..
i mean he is a good fighter but i think dana should dump him…

In the early does of the first UFC fights, Gracie won because of his jits. The others used only their discipline. I don’t even remember anybody else that used jits back then. Now everybody that wants to be successful cross trains in various disciplines. I doubt that a small man like Silvia could beat a big man like Fedor in today’s game. I don’t think Silvia would have much more chance against Fedor than Cote has against Silvia.
