Bonnar vs Silva? Is this Some Kind of Joke?

When i first saw a clip for this match up i thought it was a practical joke the UFC was playing on its loyal fan base. Bonnar vs Silva? WTF is how most sane fans probably reacted. That's like Jordan vs Dan Marjle. The absolute best vs a gritty hard nosed mildly talented NBA player from the 90's. No Comparison. No Match.

Anderson Silva treated Stephan Bonnar to front row seats to one of his fights to witness the legend up close and personal, as in really close and nothing personal. Its just business. A brutal knee to the solar plexus followed by 5 to 7 merciless follow up shots to the head should not be taken personal. Its but the price you pay for the sin of stepping into the octagon with the greatest fighter in mma history.

A dominating, devastating performance at the elite 205 weight class, where the elite 205 Alpha dog likes to lay claim to bones of decaying octagon carcass. Jon Jones?Could it happen? Should it happen?

Many pundits we'rent sure if this fight would ever take place. "Anderson is past his prime". "He's scared of Jones etc.." Not so now. The undisputed middle weight king is ready for Jones. and Jones should be vigilant of Andersons experience, craftiness and execution.

In all this i gota feel for Bonnar. a likeable UFC crash test dummy. At least he went out test driving a legendary sleek Lamborghini Murcielago for the rest of the 205lb division. "Yup she's good to go fellas", is what he's probably muttering from the ICU.
