I've been wanting to see Silva vs. Mikey for the longest time, just to see Mikey get his ass handed to him... but I'm not so sure that's gonna happen post Silva leg injury, and I don't think that would be the best course of action for Silva as his comeback fight.
I think Silva vs. Nick Diaz would be a better comeback fight for The Spider... and that would be a closer match-up rankings-wise when Silva and Nick Diaz eventually return.
I don't agree with the UFC Welterweight rankings having Anderson Silva ranked as the #1 contender, most especially since he's lost 2 in a row,
and his last win was over Stephan Bonnar in October of 2012... that's just crazy talk and Spider nuthuggary by the press, who are responsible for the UFC rankings.
I say make it Nick Diaz vs. Anderson Silva when Silva is ready to fight... although Nick Diaz might not accept the fight being that it won't be a title fight for 500k.
