I completly agree. It's why a Forrest comparison or example is absurd. My point was more that Silvas been taken done before, and GSP is a very accomplished MMA wrestler. Travis Lutter, Dan Henderson and even Belfort was able to breifly take Silva down. I'm not over looking Silvas stand up, and deadly striking, I just don't believe GSP will have as hard a time getting Silva down as some believe.
