Chuck still has to go through Babalu, Silva has to get through the open weight grand prix in September. If it happens i'm going with Silva due to TKO by brutal knees.

SILVA, hes just a better all around fighter!!! chuck hardly goes to the ground, not saying hes not good there but am saying hes not close to the skill as silva
and on to the standing game, anyone that say chucks is any better is stupid
chucky most of the time just gets a lucky blow early and finishes with a fury
Silva tko 1 round

Either way this promises to be an exciting fight. If there were a fantasy fight league most people would have made this match up as the Clash of the Titans at 205. I am very impressed with Dana White in making this happen, I'm sure it was no small feat to negotiate with PRIDE to share fighters, both in their prime to go at it in the ring.
As much as I like Chuck I will have to give the edge to Wanderlei in this fight. Wandy has faced some brutal competition in both his weight class and against much heavier opponents (Fujita, Mark Hunt, Cro Cop). Chuck is dominant in the UFC but relatively speaking he is the big fish in the small pond.
Silva is a total animal in the ring. Punching, kicking, knees, elbows just pure aggression is a densely muscled fighting machine. Chuck has a punchers chance at a KO but I think Wandy is just too well rounded to lose this one.
I hope they can put together an interesting undercard for this fight. The last UFC was quite dissapointing. Maybe the Hughes vs. GSP rematch? Please!

Silva's insane. I got him for a fairly easy win.

Lidell by KO is my guess. Their styles match to make an exciting fight. Silva is an offensive juggernaught during standup. Lidell is a hard punching counterstriker. What will bring Chuck the win is his iron jaw and greater one-shot KO power during exchanges. Silva may be able to drop Lidell late or win a decision victory as Silva's cardio is top tier.
