And in MY opinion, that is the most lethal of all the combat sports (have you heard of the number of sprains/dismemberments that happen in that sport? )

And yes, Silva is amazing. Amazing. Sadly, many people think, because he only shows striking now days (who the hell wants to come within range to try a takedown?) he is not good on the ground, while in reality he is a black belt in BJJ.

Lyle, you say you only respect Machida, GSP, and now Silva. Do you respect GSP as a fighter, or more as an athlete in general?
