Melvin ManHoef vs. Wanderlei Silva

[matto]

wand is better on the ground but wand has the style where he wants to stand with anybody and uses his ground game as a backup, both very agressive and unlike a lot of other lhws silva is only 3 inches taller. eaither could knock each other out. also which do you favor melvin's dutch style kickboxing, or wand's muy thai wit them knees.

[neonatural45]

silva would probably shoot and either get the takedown or pull gaurd for an easy sub. There is a slight chance that wandy decides to be an idiot and tries to trade with him. In that case manhoef would catch him

wandy wins by sub

also

Manhoef's kickboxing >>>>> wandy's muy thai

Wand takes this

i agree that wand takes this fight, but wand decided to stand with cc and hunt, why wouldnt he stand with melvin?

They both have very good takedown D and wandy isnt much of a wreslter (he did take CC down once though) I suppose he knew that he wouldnt have much of a chance at taking the bigger men down

[matto]

wow this would be a great fight im surprized why there arent more replys.

wand knocks this fool out, or he submits him. Wanderlei is stubborn, and doesnt like changing it up, but he put some heat on Cro Cop and Hunt and i consider them much more challenging for someone like Wanderlei to deal with, as a counter striker and brawler with a hell of a chin respectively

[matto]

melvin is a fucking animal with great standup, i dont see wand wanting this on the ground even though he would easy beat him there. stronge explosive and fast as hell. def more agreseive then wand.
