I am of two trains of thought.
1. If Silva get pissed and focused as he was against Okami and Sonnen II, I see him regaining his belt.
2. If Silva tries to "Forrest Griffin" again, I see him losing.
So lets just go ahead and assume the latter. Silva loses his rematch for the belt, and is now pushed to the side for a new challenger.
Where does he go from there? Does he move up to LHW? Does he have a rematch with Vitor to try and get another title shot? Does he move up to HW to respond to Frank Mir's ridiculous challenge for a couple of years ago?
The UFC has no real reason to do so, but I'd be very interested in a 3rd match up between Sonnen and Silva. Mainly because I want to hear Sonnen's justification for the rematch, which would possibly more entertaining than the fight itself.
