I understand what both of you are saying. But lets face it, this is not Dancing with the "MMA" stars. People pay good money (live event, ppv, etc) to watch, arguably, the best fighter on this planet fight and to watch a talent like Anderson Silva display his skills.

Hell, even if he would switch his style to capoeira, although some people would think he's dancing, it is in fact a form of martial arts. I (along with a lot of MMA fans) would want to see him finish his opponent swiftly and decisively to make a point that the UFC is feeding him tomato cans. Anderson Silva finishing fights in less than 10-20 seconds a fight would also cause a huge stir, but at least he is doing what he's there to do. Dominate.

Anderson Silva will be a much more compelling fighter (once again) when he makes his move to full time LHW. He will be LHW Champ in 2-3 fights max.

And obviously, he cant do what he wants in the octagon. The next time he pulls that shit off, he will be fighting for Strikeforce or Bellator.

Ofcourse, this is my opinion as an MMA fan.
