Patrick Cote recently spoke to Sherdog.com and in the interview stated that he was 100% confident that he could win the fight against the seemingly unstoppable Anderson Silva when the two fight at UFC 90 in October. Although no fighter is going to go into the fight not being 100% confident, Cote does make some valid and interesting points.

Yeah sure buddy!!! Keep telling yourself that and one day you may even believe it!!!

August 2, 2008  12:10 PM ET

HA HA...he should be THOROUGHLY drug tested before this fight....because he is DEFINITELY smoking something!

August 2, 2008  01:52 PM ET

You never know but..............I'm 100% sure he'll get his butt kicked

August 2, 2008  02:45 PM ET

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Cote can keep the fight standing it will be interesting because he will be the best striker Silva has faced yet. His ground game is terrible though and he cannot avoid submissions. Would love to see my countryman win though, be nice to have him and GSP on top of their divisions

Silva by KO in 1st round

August 2, 2008  05:56 PM ET

Best sriker?what a bout Rich Franklin?

August 2, 2008  06:52 PM ET

Im sorry I forgot about rich. I dont know why rich never gave him a good go, the first fight he seemed out of it and the second I dont know. Anyone else rich fights he looks like the best fighter in the world, does anyone think he'll get a 3rd shot at silva if he keeps winning

August 2, 2008  06:54 PM ET

I know they give drug test but maybe he should get a Brain Test, he must be out his fuccin mind
Prediciton
1st Rd Knockout 2mins 34Secs

I wish I could get to my retirement, I could DOUBLE my money on this fight. SILVA will knock your **** out in the first round. Jerry

Nah, you'd never be able to double up. Despite Cote's quacking off, Silva will be a 20 to 1 favorite. So you'll just get a 5% return.

Not bad for a one day return though.

Come on guys, every fighter before every fight says the same crap "He don't have the skills to beat me" etc etc. The prefight interviews are as lame as pro wrestling interviews. Of course he says he'll win. How many people would buy the fight if he said "I'm 100% sure I'll get my *** beat.".

August 3, 2008  11:44 AM ET

haha poor guy doesnt know what hes gettin himself into...silva is a beast and the scariest fighter in the ufc good luck buddy hope you last at least 60 seconds without getting knocked out

August 3, 2008  06:43 PM ET

As I stated before, I am quite sure who the winner will be. Although, I would love to see a fellow Canadian do the impossible.
The only real test for Silva is to move up or down a weight class. GSP would be an amazing fight.

August 3, 2008  06:46 PM ET

That's when we could put the "best pound for pound" fighter to rest. I think GSP would kick Silva's butt.

August 3, 2008  08:39 PM ET

Silva would MURDER St Pierre
Henderson would DESTROY St Pierre
Franklin would POUND St Pierre

...And on August 9th

Fitch WILL DEFEAT St Pierre.

GSP would NEVER hold a tite at 185...unless he goes to EliteXC.

Lastly, Silva KO's Cote in 1st Round by Raping w/ no lube

August 3, 2008  11:02 PM ET

My husband is such a ****.

August 4, 2008  11:02 AM ET

GSP would most definitely get his a$.s kicked by Silva. It wouldn't be close. Wake up people. GSP is great. Probably the best in his division. But to say he could get in there and fight Anderson is retarded.

August 4, 2008  11:03 AM ET

But to address the title of this T&R: Cote' gets owned in the 1st Rd by KO.

 
August 4, 2008  01:55 PM ET

Pound for Pound GSP and Anderson Silva are the two best fighters in the world, I still think Anderson Silva would win, but man GSP is probably the best athlete out of the two, but Silva is the smartest, accurate and toughest guy MMA has ever seen. Who the hell is this Cote guy????
