No one thinks cote will win or has a chance at winning, but that is stupid, sure silva is a great fighter but cote is not some prettyboy mma wannabe on "never back down", fighting is what he does 4 a job, he's been training mma longer than most people know what mma is so don't count him out cos its not like cote is going to be tied up to a chair or anything, he is free to hurt silva as much as silva is free to hurt cote, my prediction is cote to win by KO in 1st round, just like against kendell grove at UFC 74 respect, this is what cote had to say

"Everybody that fought Anderson Silva was scared of him; I'm not scared of him one bit," said Cote. "It's gonna take him 10 straight punches to take me down - I only need one punch to take him down. I'm Patrick Cote,
 
I never thought that Silva would one punch Irvin. Irvin has shown a good chin many times before. Cote can win yes. This is mma and anything can happen but the odds are not good for The Predator in this fight. but hey I love huge underdogs and think a huge upset would be cool. but I also want to see a reigning terror other than fedor
 
Cote is an excellent striker. He has a very strong stand up game. The problem is, so does Silva. In addition to that, Silva also holds a Black Belt in BJJ.

Even just standing, Silva presents unique angles and it is very hard for an upcoming opponent to find someone with his fighting style to train with.

On the other hand Cote is pretty much a standard striker. He hits very hard, but there is very little movement or challenging angles presented in his attack. Silva will have no problem finding someone in his training camp to emulate Cote's style.

Anderson Silva will be prepared. The main difference between the 2 is the skill level on the ground. Cote is a fish out of water on the ground. With the Black Belt in BJJ, Silva is completely at home on the ground.

I know everyone is assuming the entire fight is going to be standing in the middle of the ring banging, but my prediction is going to be that Anderson Silva wins by submission (probably a triangle or a rear naked choke) early in the 2nd round.

I am really not trying to take anything away from Cote. I think he is a great, charismatic fighter and I always enjoy watching his fights. I just don't think he has what it takes to hang with Anderson Silva at this point in both of their careers.

And if I just might add this last point. I don't think Rich Franklin,Travis Lutter, Chris Leben, James Irvin, Nate Marquardt or Dan Henderson were particularly afraid of him either. And none of them made it out of the 2nd round.
 
i would like to think that someone could possibly beat anderson. but yet no one has. who ever does beat him will get paid soooo much money though. but im rooting for anderson silva. he is by far my favorite. but i would really like to see him get beat just once to see just who can do it.
 
it's good to have confidence but that doesn't mean shit...silva will beat cote
