Doesn't GSP have the highest percentage of succesful takedowns in UFC history? I don't think it would be easy but think he has a good shot (pun intended) to take Silva down.

-------------------

No offense to Weidman, think almost anyone is overmatched when they step into the cage to fight Anderson Silva. The successful challenger has to have, in addition to the physical skills/tools, a good focus/relaxed mind. Once Anderson clowns his opponent, he starts to frustrate them and that's when he turns it on. If any challenger is to be successful, I think they have to have a very good head that can stay calm.

One fight that looks interesting that I'm looking forward to is Tim Boetsch vs Mark Munoz. Expect grinding/grueling ground and pound.
