I think A Silva would have a hard time setting up his combos when he has to keep worrying about the takedown coming in like GSP likes to do.
I agree w/ this assessment but I am not so sure that GSP would be able to finish Silva and if it is 5 rounds and Silva getting atleast 5 chances on his feet to KO GSP, I am not so sure GSP could keep from getting KOed. I can see GSP pulling out a decision against Silva but I am not so sure he could take the fight the distance against Silva.....
