    You know who always wants the 'Superfight'?

    The bigger guy.

    You know who's always never really sold on it?

    The little guy.

To be honest, I'm not much of a fan of "super-fights", but the middleweight division doesn't offer any serious threats to Silva and it looks like Jones will clear out the LHW division too. I don't like either of them, so at least one would lose and I think it's a more intriguing fight than Anderson vs. GSP.
    Apologies for misreading but when you say Jones would prove a lot wouldn't GSP?? Like I said I suppose it's an argument that can't really be won but I see GSP vs Silva happening long before, GSP wants Silva to come to 170 and fight him for the WW title because he's weighed 168 in his late 20s.

    Jones has the desire to move to HW.

    i agree with the point about superfights - especially in MMA where the weight classes are so far apart
    'I really loved the fighting, and the extreme cage they use. Its just so extreme and awesome. '

    Alot of that is due to naturally getting bigger though, he wouldn't be fighting at 130 or 140 these days.
