The only concern I have is whether Belfort can go for five rounds. Since his resurgance, we haven't seen him past the first round, but anything is possible. Training at Xtreme Couture should help. His chin is good enough to avoid a knockout, unless Silva gets him in the clinch, and he's one of the few fighers that can match Silva's striking, so it makes sense to have Silva fight a guy who he's never faced before in Belfort, not to mention that Middleweight is suffering a famine of contenders for Silva.

I see Belfort trying to rush in early once or twice with a barrage. If that doesn't work, I see Silva picking him apart. The key for Belfort if he wants to win this thing will be to draw Silva in where Belfort can mount an attack.
