Roundtable: UFC 183 'Silva Vs Diaz'

Anderson Silva returns to the Octagon for the first time in 13 months Saturday against Nick Diaz at UFC 183, and the Sherdog Radio Network convened a "Roundtable" to dissect just what the chances are that Silva's leg, chin, and legacy will hold up against the Stockton battler in Las Vegas.

Host Jack Encarnacao welcomed Sherdog.com's Patrick Wyman, Kountermove MMA founder Aaron Ard, and ESPN.com MMA scribe Brett Okamoto for a top-to-bottom breakdown of this Saturday's offering, including one of the largest quotients of dissenting picks on fights in recent memory.

Catch the panelists as they reach subtly differing conclusions on who will get his hand raised in the welterweight eliminator co-main event between Tyron Woodley and Kelvin Gastelum, as well as the flyweight title contenders fight between Ian McCall and John Lineker and potential showcase for 24-year-old Jordan Mein against the grizzled Thiago Alves.

That and focused insight on what the Diaz fight means for the long career arc of one of the greatest fighters to ever strap on a pair of gloves.

It will be a historic occasion when Anderson Silva steps back into the fray Saturday, and there's no better way to get girded to take it all in than the SRN Roundtable, available for download here.
