Yoel would fukk up any version of Anderson
No.

In his prime Silva was too fast and his chin essential not as shaky as now. He controlled ground fighters like Maia and Henderson and also survived bombs from Henderson, Leben and Lee Murray.

He's extra washed now but in his prime not many are hanging with him.

:smugfavre:That brings a smile to my face, he's been afforded a lot of rope and constantly conducts himself with a lack of professionalism. He was basically handed a title eliminator out of no where and now at a new weight was given free reign to call his shot, now this?:childplease: So glad Anderson (the whore for money) didntt have to do the job form laraza

We also have to remember Yoel is around 5'9

Maia's grappling ability was turrible back then, his takedowns were telegraphed as fukk. I'm not saying it wouldn't be a good fight but Yoel is just some next level physicality

Tim Kennedy almost ko'd him and Jacare also found success aginst him. A prime Silva beats him.

Period.
