R. Evans VS Anderson Silva?


6.29.12

Evans aspires to take on Silva:



Former Light Heavyweight champion, Rashad Evans contemplating about a big move down to the Middle Weight division to face the current title holder, Anderson Silva.
Rashad Evans is an accomplished wrestler and a top contender in the 205 pound division of the UFC.
“I thought about moving down to middleweight, then I thought about how hard that weight cut is… I may go to 185 and not be the same fighter because I’m maybe cutting too much weight… Anderson is somebody I would love to fight because when it’s all said and done, whether you win or lose, to compete against the best in the sport is really what it’s all about. You know, if I can walk away from my career and say I competed against some of the best in the sport in my time and era, then I can wrap up and say I had a really great career. So if the opportunity comes, and that fight happens, yeah I would drop to 185 to fight.”

 My Opinion:
“I, personally, think that Rashad Evans will not get the chance to make a run for the Middleweight title against Anderson Silva. As Evans said, the weight cut would be extreme and more than likely detrimental to the fight itself. If Evans is serious, and honestly wants to fight for the 185lb title, than I think he should fight some top contenders first. Maybe throw him a bone and let him fight top contender Brian Stann. See how he likes the middleweight division after that.”
