Silva’s style against Leites draws considerable fan heat David Estrada, Jr MMA column for Sunday, May 3 The Port Arthur NewsRecent history may prove to be against Anderson Silva's chances of a victory.
This is an era of parity in MMA where upper echelon fighters from a lower weight class cannot hang with upper echelon fighters from a higher weight class. One can look no further than BJ Penn losing to Georges St. Pierre and Shinya Aoki losing to Mach Sakurai. Silva's skill alone might buck this trend when he faces an upper echelon larger fighter in Forrest Griffin. The main thing here is that fans will be rewarded with a great, great fight style-wise. Now that Anderson Silva has the record and faces a tough opponent, fans will probably get to see the Anderson Silva of old.
