Forrest Griffin vs Anderson Silva at UFC 101
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Forrest Griffin will face UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva at UFC 101 according to MMAJunkie and Yahoo. This fight will be at light heavyweight, a division that Silva fought at last July when he defeated James Irvin. This matchup comes after UFC President Dana White expressed disappointment after Silva’s performance against Thales Leites at UFC 97.
This fight should be a great because Forrest Griffin is big guy and he will have no problem engaging with Silva.

Should be an interesting fight at 205. but then again, I thought James Irvin would be at least a challenge. Got caught… Fight Over… Griffin won’t make the same mistake Irvin did. Worth watching for sure!!
