He's classy and he'll kick yo ass... and I do agree, Okami would be next in line to lose

Yes Anderson silva is the best P4P fighter in the world, and in a Month GSP will be the best P4P fighter in the world, than after that BJ penn will be the best P4P fighter in the world 
i dont think he called rich franklin out, he showed the respect he has for rich by saying he has been the onyl true champion he has faced. Also i dont think anderson was being disrespectful, he shook hand with Dan before, and when the match started he chose not to again, no one said anything about rampage being disrespectful when he pushed dan's hands away when he tried to touch gloves. people just always try to hate on who ever is on top (ala the pats)

I didn't mind Silva not touching gloves because he has always been very respectful of other fighters. Rampage didn't touch Hendo's gloves either. I just think it is go time at that point.
The Franklin thing I believe was more in respects that Frankilin had the UFC belt and not the defunct Pride belt, thats all.
Silva is one of the most respectful fighters in MMA.

Not trying to say you are wrong or anything like that, but for argument's sake, can't there be a pound for pound best in every division? I mean, it just means that BJ has less poundage than GSP who is lighter than Anderson Silva who is lighter than Rampage who has less poundage than Big Nog or Randy whoever you recognize with the belt... i mean BJ has a good chance at P4P lightweight coming up against Sherk imo, GSP im waiting on this P4P till we see Serra and him throw down. But i can legitimately say that without falling into the fresh in your mind psychology that JJFreak was talking about, that i believe that Anderson is P4P the best in Middleweight, right now. It would be cool to see Silva V Lindland, but i think Silva V Henderson was just the cement to my thinking. I've believed that Silva was P4P for a while now. Anyway i was bored and felt like playing Devil's Advocate over here.

For some reason Silva has major respect for Rich. I'm wondering if it has to do with how classy Rich is and Silva respects that. .

He said somewhere along the lines of; (could be lost in translation) Not too take anything away from Dan Henderson, but the only true Champion that i have fought in the Octagon was Rich Franklin.
