I think Silva has better skill set as compared to Jones (multiple black belts in: Muay Thai, JiuJitsu, Judo, Tae Kwon Do AND a professional boxer). I also believe Silva has the added experience that Jones might lack in order to get out of bad situations.

Jones, on the other hand, is younger, taller, faster, stronger and might very well have better stamina than Silva. Jones is also incredibly talented in his overall ability to adapt to his opponent's strength, while exploiting their weaknesses.

Keep in mind, that Silva is Jones' hero. While he was growing up and was simply a fan of the sport, he modeled a lot of what he did after Silva's approach to MMA. He is probably one of the fighters that can predict a lot of what Silva's game will be come fight time.

By way of sheer odds alone, Jones would defeat Silva. My take is that Silva's experience, couple by the fact that his height and reach are slightly comparable to Jones (Silva is 6'2 with a 77.6 inch reach, Jones is 6'4 with a 84.5 inch reach), could very well provide an upset at the end.

I would love for this fight to happen!

Strong Wrestler, Much stronger and bigger frame AND he uses his length and reach to his advantage (contrary to what Stefan Struve does who prefers to attack you with his chin instead of his jab or kicks).

Ronnie Coleman (or was it Gus The Bus that did it to Ronnie) dropped a 200 pound dumbbell on his big toe and broke it.

That's definately true.

How do you think Jones will recover from this Steve?

Well as a wrestler I'd imagine his big toes are very very important in pushing, sprawling and takedowns, More-so than say a striker such as jds or machida for example

  that big toe is the base of the foot     much like we rely on our thumbs when it comes to our hands


  very tough to grapple with out big toes

Silva wants nothing to do with Jones at this point in his career. too risky a fight, not only in bones bigger he is skilled.. bad fight
jones needs to join his HW brothers if he wants a challenge (not sure if he does)

I wore a pair of Jordans that were too small once and both my big toenails turned purple and fell off.  It hurt like hell, Jones for the win.
