well after his fight with Irvin he is expected to go down to MW do defend his MW title against Yushin Okami.....so i'd say Okami is next for silva.

As far as LHW goes, granted he wins, i'd say Give him Soko, or Liddell.

in my opinion i dont believe hes going to stay up here for a while they just got him this fight to see if he can fight at 205.... if he does good im sure hell go back and forth between 205 and 185 if he keeps fighting at 205 hopefully its liddell that would be so fun to watch hopefully not wandy because wandy would KO HIM

I hope he comes down back to the middleweight division....If he beats Yushin Okami i hope he comes back to the light heavyweight division i want him to fight people like Mauricio Rua,Chuck Liddell,Dan Henderson(again),Wanderlei Silva,Forrest Griffin,Quinton Jackson.....Those fights would be so awesome i gurantee you if any of those fights happen they will all end in a awesome ending and if Anderson Silva vs Dan Henderson 2 happened..I hope Dan Henderson won so there would be a Silva vs Henderson 3

I'm sure the mods will move the thread when they see it isn't news.

i dont see that happening, since A.Silva and Machida are training partners, and apparently are good friends, plus with A.Silva having the choice of fighting at MW also(different than say Koscheck and fitch, since they are both in the same weight class, and cant switch weight classes), i dont think he'd take that fight.

I got the impression he was doing this to appease the fans who wondered how he would do at 205. Irvin was the best he could get on short notice I think, and as soon as this is over he's going back to his kingdom to fight off Okami.. He might do 205 again after Okami. Especially since he wants to fight as much as possible to thank Dana.

He'll fight Okami next. After Okami though, I'd like to see Chuck or Shogun.

Anderson will go back down, fight Okami, then I would guess maybe go back to LHW and fight someone there, so the UFC can determine who is next in line for a MW title shot. This is assuming Anderson beats Okami. If Anderson continues to win in both weight classes, it won't be long until he has the oppurtunity to hold both belts.

If Anderson does hold both belts, wouldn't it be crazy if BJ decided to move back to WW while still holding the LW belt and beat GSP(hypotheticaly speaking). 4 weight classes, 2 champs. Would this be a good thing or a bad thing for the UFC?
