Great seein ya Van...odd that you return the day before I do :P Glad you're staying safe over there.

To CFH, Silva in Brazil is like Smith in America. I work with 3 Silvas, and none of them are even remotely related (well, I lied....two of them have married cousins, so they're like second cousins in law or something wacky like that)

I would like to think that Wandy would destroy Anderson (henceforth referred to as Silva, cuz I kept typing it as such and didn't notice until rereading,) but I honestly think it's a crap shoot until we see how Silva does with the extra weight. He's an INCREDIBLY technical fighter with intensely accurate strikes that ought to pick apart Wandy's wild strikes, but if Wandy can bully him around and outmuscle him in the clinch, it would be very bad night for Silva. However, with Silva's recent showings, he lacks that killer instinct that brought him so many victories. He's almost gunshy since CroCop destroyed him.

As far as Silva vs Chuck, this ought to be an easy matchup (in my opinion) for Silva, provided he takes the weight well as above. I've long said that Chuck would easily fall to a technical, accurate striker. He lacks the skills that make good head movement difficult/dangerous (well, perhaps not lacks as much as doesn't utilize.) His punches may be powerful, but he leaves himself very open (see his 2nd loss against Rampage), and Silva can exploit that very well. I don't see him possibly beating Chuck in the clinch, so I can't see that being a factor in this fight. Chuck can take a beating, but he's clearly subject to being KOd.

Either way, I have a feeling both fights would both play out and end explosively.
