    Im thinking Silva will still be the favorite by most people media, fans and such, but probably not fighters and definitely not me. Hoping to win another avatar bet and put money down this time. Was going to put 100 for the first time ever but just didnt pull the trigger on the first fight. Im not a betting man, but I am thinking about getting into the mma odds.

    Who do you think will be the favorite by media/odds/fans/fighters?

    Anderson is already a 2/1 favorite. Its obvious he will still be the favorite. The old "He's gonna be serious for this fight and isn't gonna f*ck around this time.".

    Silva will be the favorite. I think he will win this one, but I am not as sure as the first fight. Silva lost, so he can lose again. Personally I just have not seen enough from Silva to make me bet against him. CW is good, but Silva is the best mma fighter we have ever seen in the ufc.

    Silva does not have age on his side. If he does lose again, it will be the fall of a GOAT.

    Silva. I think he will win also but Weidman is a beast. If Anderson isn't fuking around I think it will be a very competitive fight

    I'm thinking Silva retires win or lose.

    KZUFC i could look at Ronda's boobs in your sig all day mate.

    that said Silva will be favourite but will lose, Weidman has the mental edge.

    comparing Silva to Penn, wow you're a troll...

    Bizarrely as this sounds but Silva might be an even bigger favourite as in there first fight. The odds were close because a lot of fans thought that Weidman would beat him in the wrestling and bjj. He didn't and Ando passed the test on the mat, he got stupid, cocky, careless and got dropped and finished at his own game of striking. Silva will not be that stupid in the second fight, that's why I think the odds could be slightly wider in Silvas favour.

    Besides the WW battles, I think Penn had a damn good career, I believe he won that first Edgar fight, and natural martial art talent. Why the hell not. They both fought a hell of a lot of cans, they both will have a few losses at the end of their career to much bigger stronger guys.... A fat, undersized, under weighed Penn took it too Machida in a loss without being bullied or backing down. Hes got amazing finishes, and just as well rounded without the kicks, but Bj doesnt look like hes designed for that. I would say Silvass boxing is just as bad as Bj's kicks.

    among fans Weidman will get more picks but Silva will still have a majority of fans picking him. fighters will favor Weidman, maybe also the media. the odds will go for Silva.
    it's understandable that despite the style match up, the first fight ending in a KO, many will still see Silva being able to pull out a win over Weidman. Cause it's Silva the GOAT, there's not the perception that he's been surpassed by a better fighter, that he's finally aged. it's that he fooled around and cost himself the fight. and even if Silva didn't do his antics and still got KO'd, I think many would still pick Silva in the rematch cause he's the GOAT and we can't envision him losing.

    Silva is still the favorite. I'm not surprised and I don't think it's unwarranted.
