It doesn't make sense form a business stand point to put two belts on one guy and only see him fight 3 times a year. But if Silva is willing to fight 5-6 times a year then it's simply being able to use his drawing power more often and against wider range of opponents. My only concern is that he not line-jump guys who deserve a 205 shot like Machida and Thiago Silva. Also the whole Silva v. Silva, who earned it by beating Silva, could get confusing. Hmm, maybe limit of two Silvas per division? Thiago v. Wanderlei, loser leaves 205. Sorry that's just....stupid.

I see Anderson being trouble for any of the top LHW fighters and I think he would have the easiest time with Rampage out of all the guys.

I think I remember reading Wanderlei cuts from like 212 to 205, so i dont see the LHW jump really being that bad for Anderson, I would actually love it if Silva stomped both divisions.

I think this was the compromise made by the UFC to keep their champ happy. But i don't think moving up is stupid, in the (old) heavy weight division you could give up 30 pounds to another fighter, like Crocop v.s. Gonzaga, which is like a WW v.s LHW. If Cop had fought big Tim, then it would have been, 45 pounds which is like LW v.s. LHW. These aren't stupid fights either. If good match ups exist and the fighters can make the weight then go for it. God i miss Pride.
