I really appreciated and agree with the comments about using defense to one’s advantage.

Though, how do you reference Cote’s fight against Tito Ortiz in the same segment in which you’re saying that the Cote has never been in a main event? He made his UFC debut in a main event!

We’re talking about a guy that lost his first four matches in the UFC, then rebounded to win his next four. Has anyone had such a stark reversal of fortunes in the UFC? Sure, there is absolutely something to nerves affecting a fighter’s performance, but it’s not as though Cote hasn’t had his share of struggles in the Octagon. I think at this point nerves are a chief concern of his.

That having been said, I like Silva in the fight.
