I think vitor's mohawk gives him magical powers as well. Liddell experienced the same thing but mohawk power eventually fades.

Vitor could easily fit in either division. Gotta remember that back in the day he was a heavyweight.

Chuck passed on the power to Glover sans mohawk.

Rockhold my guy too but I don't know if he'll ever be the same after that

Costa's boxing is nice. Could go either way.

I don't know man, this one is too close to call. I was hoping they wouldn't fight until one of them got the belt. With that said, I would give the slight edge to Machida, especially if he can mix it up and take him down.

Anderson Silva already using crutches less than 48 hours after surgery. Also, he's been asking the doctor every time he checks in on Anderson how long until he can start training again. He started asking the doctor about training even pre-surgery. You have to respect his heart and competitive nature. He back. Trust me. He back.

I just want 1 more fight from Silva. May be selfish of me but just 1 more. Hate to see him go out that way. Maybe he can come back healthy and have one last great match, just like Mariano Rivera in baseball.

Put him in a handicapped match with griffin and bonnar. He can still knock both those dudes out even with a bad leg.

I can't believe his recovery is listed at only 3-6 months. Gruesome injury. Thought a year minimum.

Maybe the bone in his leg will heal in that time but it won't feel normal for awhile.

I don't see him fighting until December 2014/January 2015.

At 38 and coming off injury, I don't ever see it happening.

thats whats said at the end of the espn piece. the recovery is just 3-6 months. then gotta add on top of that training and the mental aspect of it, it'd be at least a year before he'd be back. I honestly think he'd come back for the boxing match against Jones and then be done. He really seemed to want to do that.
speaking of that..

Assuming he comes back, which I think he will, I wonder who he fights.

Go away Roy Jones. Distracting these guys to be in a pointless boxing match. The f out of here. Let Diaz come back to MMA first and foremost.
Respect Anderson to the fullest, I hope to hell he comes back but I fear it's futile like expecting Kobe to come back and do what he did before the injury. Both guys have already accumulated a lot of mileage.
Does the UFC have any rule against having titanium rods? Anderson will have one in his leg for the rest of his life...

Respect your suggestion, I will check for that. I also just watched a doc on Netflix centering on GSP... not bad.

Its 3-6 months for the fracture to heal. But it may take longer for "soft tissue components" to heal. The doctor said he's estimating he can start training in 6-9 months and in a few weeks he could put increased pressure on his leg. And he's already using crutches. Despite how gruesome it was he was lucky that no ligaments tore or that he didn't have to have it amputated.

Hyper: Tomato can tune-up. Get the mental confidence back and assure physical readiness post-surgery.
