Who wins? This the fight everybody wanna see and you know it will happen sometime. It's 50/50 to me but I give the edge to Silva on experience.

Jon Jones is basically a heavyweight fighting at LHW if I remember correctly. I'd choose him for his size.

Heh, that would be a boring fight for me because GSP will do nothing by try and take Silva down (for obvious reasons). If GSP worked a lot on the ground then it would be interesting. But I'm afraid he'll be too scared to make a mistake and just lay and pray to a victory. I didn't watch the fights last weekend, so I'm not sure if GSP lay and pray'd his way to another win.

Sadly this fight will never happen. I would go with Jones. His reach means he can stand with Silva (theoretically) and he has great wrestling. Silva has proven to have issues with good wrestlers.

I thought that way at first but now I'm starting to believe that Jones is invincible:|....That's why there is no way in hell sonnen should be in the cage with him. Dana white is starting to turn the UFC into the WWF!!!

Yeah, I'm gonna agree that Jon Jones is invincible. Silva has actually lost a few without being DQ'ed, and he should've lost the UFC 117 fight against Sonnen, only Sonnen was a f*ckin idiot and pulled his right arm out of Silva's guard. Jones might kill Sonnen. I thought he was going to kill Machida.

Jones could kill Sonnen which why I expect Sonnen to be on the ground for 95% of the fight or he is going to get KO.

I would have to pick Jones without a doubt. Silva is a great fighter and one of the best in UFC history, but Jones just as good striking ability, and he's a pretty darn good wrestler. Plus the size, and reach advantage would be on Jones side. This would be a horrible fight in my opinion.

Dangerous fight for Silva to take. But if you want to be the considered the best, take on all comers.

Sonnen could juice up before fighting Jones and would still get killed.
