those two have a completely different style than silva.

It has nothing to do with gsp's or anyone elses physical prowess, it has to do with the style of fighting each has and again sparring in practice is completely different that an actual match.

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.
