Jardine. If Thiago wins, he should get in line for a title shot.

It depends partly on how this next round of contender matches gets setup. After last night I'd say def a top 10 guy. Maybe Forrest or Machida or Jardine?

I think he should fight Evans !!
it will be real test for Evans and a good step up for Silva if he win.
if Evans win he will become a top 5 guy this time for sure !

I think he should fight Bisping. It would give him some more hype and on top of that, it would be a good fight.

Forrest or Jardine winner gets the shot after wand if he wins, or the winner of soko/machida.

personally I think Thiago Silva needs one more legitimate test before he fights a real contender. houston alexander was not a legitimate test the second the fight hit the ground it was over, houston literally stood no chance of contending on the ground with a bjj black belt i dont think this validates thiago whatsoever. i think he needs to fight somebody like stefan boner whereas if he wins convincingly he should fight somebody like tito, jardine, or even the loser of sokoudjou and machida. right now i think he needs to fight somebody else before a real shot to put himself into contention.

Thiago Silva is a BJJ master, I know he comes from brazil but is he from the same camp as Shogun???? cause I think that would be the best matchup for him. I think that their styles would match up very well.
Although I think they both come from the chute camp so i doubt they will get matched up anytime soon.

Yeah he comes from chute boxe, same as shogun. Silva won't want to fight shogun, and vise versa. Shogun is a legend in chute boxe and they're all like brothers so I can't see that one happening. I'd like to see Silva fight Griffin, or Jardine. I think one of those two guys would show exactly what each fighter has, and the winner would definetly deserve a shot. I'm going to assume if Wand wins he'll get a shot, and then the winner of soko/machida will get one, and then one of these three guys can put themselves right there.

Bisping would be a reasonable candidate. Someone else that I think would make for an interesting and relevent opponent would be Jason Lambert.
