On the other hand consistency gives the sport some direction. Without consistency every fight would be two random guys fighting and anyone could win. This of course could be entertaining, but in the long run a bit meaningless. Also without any consistency upsets wouldn't be possible.<BR/><BR/>I see your point about a tune-up fight for Anderson Silva at 205 lb. And it is probably fair to him, especially considering that he took the fight on short notice. To me though a tune-up fight isn't the most exciting thing in the world. Well, maybe I should be happy to see Silva fight more often.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05047831067687846792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287112043207847691.post-49814323495674507342008-06-26T20:34:00.000+03:002008-06-26T20:34:00.000+03:00What does it matter if there are lots of upsets?

I think it's good he gets to test the waters a bit first. I'm pretty sure he can kick a lot of guys' asses at 205 too. Because he has such accurate combos and he's so elusive. Joe Rogan TM. Not sure how far he can go. Maybe we'll see him at HW next year after beating Rampage in a few months.<BR/><BR/>And yeah I doubt Silva's careless enough to get KOed in 8 seconds.Samuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12186701275237033617noreply@blogger.com
