    Carwin by brutal KO in the first 30 seconds... Was Joe Silva high when he made this matchup or did Silva piss him off???

    235lbs T.Silva would be scary!! Open Weight Tourtument Second round 2nd fight Thiago-silva-ufc-102

    Im calling a Big upset here lads, Gonzaga doesnt really punch much harder than T.Silva and Thiago has better striking and faster hands. I think if he got off a Combo he rocks Carwin and his GnP is very good I think he would jump on him and finish. I know Carwin is a huge favorite to land his 1 punch it takes but on the basis T.Silva has only 1 loss were he was fighting fit and that was to Machida Im betting on him to take out a 260lbs Carwin (assuming if he is under 265 he has lost a little weight Laughing )

    T.Silva by TKO in the 2nd

    Got the previous results Chelsea?

    Carwin KO in the first, very similar to the Mir fight. Uses his weight to put him against the cage, then dirty boxes him into oblivion Very Happy

    Cannot see past Carwin here like. Would expect Carwin to bulldoze straight through Thiago. Brutal KO inside the first 30seconds.
