Fedor makes mistakes. Everybody makes mistakes. The question is whether they're big enough to take advantage of, and I just don't think that they are. Anderson makes mistakes. Fedor makes mistakes.

He's not the most difficult opponent to take down but he's beend great on his back. While like many people I don't think Leites will win, I'm not going to guarantee an absolute Anderson Silva victory. Maybe Silva will get KO'ed for the first time in his career? I would really like that possibility to exist but Leites has not shown much standing up to prove an edge there. Knocking down or rocking Marquardt is not difficult. "Don’t get punched in the face" - that's classic! I think people tend to forget that Anderson does make some small mistakes himself.
