- Then there is winklejohn as well who is the brains behind jon jones and condits' attack methods, as they are weapons guided by precision tools.
And Silva is straight out of Black House with half the famous Brazilian fighters in the UFC and coached by Josuel Distak. Coaching isnt going to sway this fight one way or the other.

- The odd thing about GSP and serra was the placement of the shot (behind ear, sense of balance) whereas condit is strong enough to do a knockdown. Silva has reach advantage.
Apples and Oranges really. One was looping haymaker (that actually stumbled GSP. Serra had to rush him before he went down) and Condit's was a leg/shin to the face. You can generate more power from the legs then you can the arms.

- Could end like JDS/CAIN but any way can happen (successful takedown and 5 rounds of decision or KTFO on round 1)
Yup, you never know what could happen. GSP could re-inure his ACL, Silva could get a thumb to the eye, etc.

- Condit beat diaz because of winks and the good gameplan, which differs from his fight style in WEC and other opponent's he's had in the cage (slap, jab, take a lap) - it was lackluster
Its not like it was some elaborate scheme. Avoid Diaz's primary weapons (the pawing jabs) move in damage the leg with kicks, throw combo's, keep moving. Pretty much the standard Condit strategy.

- Dynamite in both hands, but dan has knocked out people with granite chin and heavywaights compared to cote
True but the point wasnt who knockout out the fighter with the stronger chin, it was that Cote is a low tier fighter that Silva ran from/wanted no part of.
