I'm not counting Bonnar out since he's got nothing to lose he could pull an upset and we don't know how seriously Silva is taking this thing.

Everyone has a puncher's chance i guess.

See: Silva vs Leites, Silva vs Cote, and Silva vs Maia. This is not as impossible as you are suggesting.

Anyone else think that if Bonnar pulls this off, the first thing he will do post fight is ring up Griffin and say:
"Hey Forrest, think anybody cares who won the first Ultimate Fighter now?"

It's not their fault, they're just buying into all the hype the UFC has put out around Anderson Silva. Watch his fight against Ryo Chonan in PRIDE. Watch the first fight with Chael Sonnen (back before Chael decided the spinning backfist was his go to move). Watch the first round of his fight with Dan Henderson, or his fight with Alexander Otsuka in PRIDE, which I believe he would have lost if it had been scored by UFC judges.
The sun rises...but in the end, it must also set. And Stephan Bonnar is just the fighter to make it "lights out" for Anderson.

Don't forget good ol' Daiju Takase.

Anderson Silva vs Stephan Bonnar
Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira vs Dave Herman
Glover Teixeira vs Fabio Maldonado
Jon Fitch vs Erick Silva
Diego Brandao vs Joey Gambino

I think Teixeira vs Maldonado has a good chance of being one of, if not the, best fights of the night.

Forrest Griffin gives advice to his fellow fighter Stephan Bonnar before Anderson Silva fight

Also,
Stephan Bonnar readies himself for Anderson Silva, possibility of becoming a father on Oct. 13

LAS VEGAS – Andrea Bonnar laughs nervously as she thinks of the correct word to describe what she expects her emotions will be on the night of Oct. 13.

Her husband, Stephan Bonnar, will fight Anderson Silva before more than 18,000 rabid Brazilians that night in Rio de Janeiro in the main event of UFC 153.

Her younger sister, Cassandra Brown, will be getting married that day in the Bahamas.

And Andrea Bonnar, herself, will be in the 38th week of her pregnancy. There is a very real chance that while her husband is fighting the greatest mixed martial arts fighter of all-time and her sister is in a vacation paradise with the rest of the family tying the knot, she'll be alone in her Las Vegas home hoping her first child doesn't decide it's time.

"I'm terrified [the baby will come that night]," she said. "I'm scared to death to have the baby, period, let alone without him being here with me."
