chuck in his hay day or Anderon Silva now? I think that Anderson is more dangerous because he has now done it at two weight classes. Both put the fear in their oppononts that one shot and it's over. That's for sure.

anderson..he has the bigger variety of strikes. elbows, knees, punches, kicks, chuck just had those heavy hands, although he got lucky on babalu with that brutal head kick.

True. Chuck is just powerful with his fists. More powerful on just one punch, but the better striker is Silva because he can do it in a variety of ways. He is more accurate too

I'd have to say Anderson Silva. I was a little skeptical about his power but after watching his drop a legitimate light heavyweight and by legitimate I mean a guy who can stand in there and bang. Silva is far more accurate and he has power. Chuck has power, but I don't think he's even close in terms of accuracy.

chuck was the Anderson of yesteryear. He still is a deadly striker, but Anderson is nasty right now.

Anderson without a doubt. Chuck is strong, but Anderson is almost poetic in the way that he executes. His angles are amazing.

The thing that I like about Anderson's striking is the accuracy. There is nobody else that is out there that is as efficient as he is. It is crazy, he probably lands like 80% of his strikes.

Also, "poetic?" That sounded gay. Embarassed

No, it would have sounded gay if I would have said "He fights like it's an art form. smooth and fluent. "

Anderson, He's obviously got powerful punches as well as knees, elbows, kicks, basically he's just a nasty striker. One punch power goes to chuck though.

Chuck has kicks too, he just doesn't use them. He knocked out Babalu with a head kick

Evans knocked out Salmon with one, doesn't mean he can use them extensively.

I think that is Rashad's only KO. That was pretty sick at that, but yeah, I don't think that he has KO power in him on a consistant basis.
