Definitely respect to Matt & no lameness intended I look at it this way though...if Silva's accomplishments had taken place at WW, he would have eclipsed Matt in most people's eyes, seeing as how some think he's the best fighter ever in any weight class (Fedor lovers excepted). If GSP can pull off the win against Silva, his legacy would take a giant leap forward, and many arguments would be made. Could be a moot point though...I think Shields is his most dangerous opponent since Hughes.
