Prediction: correct Sonnen   correct Decision  

Sonnen should take this but it could go either way, especially since Wandy hasn't fought since...what, Brian Stann?

Prediction: wrong Silva   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

He's not going to lay on Wand for 3 rds (his only way to win) the crowd will boo enough to get stand ups for Wand to land big shots. Can't wait until the biggest joke in MMA loses again.

Ring rust is also subjective. Look what Pinchel just did after 3 years off.

Sonnen's only had one fight in the same amount of time, he lost in 2 minutes, and he didn't look good. So IDK if it will matter much.

I've been going back and forth on this fpr some time. One one hand Silva has been out of the game for years and hasn't looked interested in coming back for anything beyond a paycheck. Silva is a big unknown but at his best would mop the floor with Sonnen. As for Chael he has been away for a while as well and like Pillory mentioned his last performance was pathetic. If that was truly Sonnen trying he just sucks now. Wanderlei is just fear of the unknown he could come out like a mad man or just be a sloppy shell of his former self.

Silva is the one looking for a paycheck? He's wanted to fight Chael since before the Anderson saga, he was in a car with him and told Chael to watch his mouth or he'd beat his ass right there, and Chael sat there like a ***** and said okay sir... And since that explosive season of TUF. If anyone is coming back for a paycheck it's Chael "Taps to a loose Tito choke" Sonnen.

My excitement levels for this fight could not be higher. Wanderlei is ******' back, man. I am stoked. Think he starches Chael, and I predict it will be violent. I cannot wait.

Can't wait for this fight, I like Sonnen's charisma but watching Wanderlei Silva fight is always something special. Go WAND!

Chael has as much charisma as an edgelord in the YouTube comments section.

Is this the last of Wand if he loses?
