Im not even talking about them sparring. I'm talking about wrestling. My point is Rashad is a weight class ahead of Silva and Rashad is a hell of a great wrestler. Silva isn't. Is it not a big deal that GSP can take him down at will? Yet he can't take down Silva in your mind? How couldn't he? What has Anderson done to prove to you that GSP can't take him down? Nothing.
I don't think this fight should happen next, I don't even think he should fight diaz yet. I think he should go up and test the waters at middleweight. I still believe GSP could beat him but since he doesn't I feel like he needs a fight there just for the confidence alone. Maybe have him fight Chael or Bisping who I think he'd smash because I believe if he just totally forgets about welterweight then he can put on weight properly and be a monster at 185.
Even the Okami fight is 50/50 with Silva and he ain't even half the strong wrestler Chael and Henderson are. It's just that Okami CAN EASILY take him down and Okami has never been submitted in MMA. I love silva but he has his hands full.
