Demian Maia v. Anderson Silva

I can understand the frustration the UFC has trying to find a good match for MW champion Anderson "the Spider" Silva. And when Vitor Belfort withdrew due to injury; it was a scramble. Too bad there was a little less forethought when the UFC cut Dan Henderson last December. Dan Henderson and Travis Lutter both dominated Anderson Silva for a while, and Dan won a complete round.

It looks as if the UFC didn't want to find an opponent able to deal with Silva's striking.

I predicted before the best style to beat Silva is wrestling. To man handle him and get within those long arms and put him on the disadvantage. I predict a short evening for Maia and Anderson Silva, with Maia going to sleep a little earlier than Anderson Silva.
