You don't get a nickname enjoy "The Axe Murder" by way of fighting cautiously. You obtain it by cultivating a trustworthiness of extreme aggression and bloodlust.
Which means that, as the name this means that, Silva is quite a good dangerous striker. He carries a full arsenal of pistols at his disposal, but is especially dangerous when they can get in close on his foes.
His ability to require damage has diminished within the last several years, but he recently showed in victory over Brian Stann which he can still absorb as well as dish it out.
Sonnen is understood for his wrestling, but he's proven himself capable in the feet. He isn't a particularly large threat to end a fight regarding his standup, but it is usually serviceable, both offensively and defensively.
That praise ought not suggest Sonnen's striking can be pretty, because it is not. It's unconventional, to stuff it in flattering terms, awkward to position it more objectively.
Although, fighting isn't about shopping good, it's about appearing effective. And Sonnen's stunning, though not wonderful, ranks as decent as of late.
He doesn't has the quick-strike knockout power he useful to, nor does he have the chin he once managed. But considering Silva to become anything less than a dangerous striker might be a mistake.
Sonnen is a difficult guy to knock released, and he could complete some damage of his own, but this is Wanderlei's manner, and he holds a benefit here.
