Sounds awesome..but you have to wonder what's behind all of this.
Honestly Silva has nothing to gain from a fight like this...and I suppose not a lot to lose either. With only 5 fights left until his retirement I guess in the way it makes sense to fight somebody who would put up a challenge...but I don't think Chuck can even put up a challenge anymore.
On the flipside, Chuck has everything to gain from this...although I really don't think this would qualify him for a title shot if he won. Silva isn't a regular 205 contender and there's plenty of others in line before him that deserve a shot more than him.

Ok. I read that article earlier yesterday. I didn't know if there was something since then to confirm it.Quote:
