I'm real disappointed in the UFC right now. The big move to Fox may be the downfall. This Bonnar/Silva fight looked almost fixed to me.Originally posted by blm View PostSo Anderson Silva moved up to light heavyweight for tonights fight against Stephan Bonnar.
Is there really any chance at all that Bonnar can even come close to challenging Silva let alone defeating him? Am I missing something?

I don't think it was fixed. I think you had a place holder, game fighter, with an iron chin fighting the best fighter on the planet. The outcome was predetermined merely by the skill set differential. A punchers always got a chance but the disparity in skill was just way too much in that fight.
They wanted Silva to fight in Brazil..he's a national hero there and the UFC is a business at the end of the day. Kudos to Bonnar for stepping into a fight that he knew was going to end badly for him--and taking the thing on short notice. Guy can take a punch and always comes to fight, love watching him.
