why do you think he does not go up in weight?
because he knows he will get his ass handed to him at the light heavy division...
but he lacks raw power.... lacks physique.
anderson is not a strong dude..
Prime,
We've been through this road before, if I remember correctly, when discussing the idea that Fedor had anything left in his tank.
What you wrote above are but mere assumptions.
When has Anderson had to display his full prowess or physical capacity?
When have you seen him go full force on anyone?
I'll tell you:
NEVERAnderson sleeps through most fights..
Machida and Anderson spend much time training together and I highly doubt any of those guys you mentioned would be that much of a problem for him.
Let me give you an example of why I think your assumptions are highly flawed..
Forrest Griffin defeated: Rampage, Shogun, Sonnen, Ortiz etc..
Silva not only defeated Griffin in the first round via striking, but made it look easy..
Don't underestimate a guy that enjoys a fat paycheck by not having to add a little weight to play at a different weight class, for a guy that has no power or the ability to hang with guys that merely outweigh him by a few pounds.
