Jones vs Silva... Who wins?

[TheLDPodcast]

There's always a debate with who is the #1 P4P (the GOAT). Leaving Mighty Mouse out of the picture, Jones and Silva are certainly in with a shout for #1 P4P of all time. What I wanna hear is if both fought (at LHW) in their prime, who do you think would win?

Jones.

Both fighting at lhw in their prime proves nothing p4p Anderson fought a good portion of his career at 170 and walks around within 5 to 10 lbs of gsp. He's been ranked #1 at 170 and 185 and top 5 at 205.

From the GOAT by division thread:

Jones destroys him. Even in his prime Anderson didn't do well against wrestlers. Jones is a gigantic wrestler who would take Anderson down any time he wanted and carve him up with elbows and GnP.

Anderson's BJJ wouldn't matter against Jones. Belfort (who's a lot quicker with subs on the ground than Anderson) nearly broke Jon's arm and he still didn't tap.

Just my opinion but that would be an absolutely terrible style match-up for Anderson. Jones is a bigger, stronger, better version of Weidman.

Jones.

he would take Anderson down and brutalize him. Anderson would remain calm and it'd might look like he wasn't almost dying because he's such a G but Jones would do bad things to him.
