    wow what are you a ****** starting **** threads like this? Did you see the fight and how good Silva is. This is the greatest fighter in MMA history youre watching, no one touches performances like that in MMA, not in a few years.

    And for anyone who expected less than this result, you guys need to understand more MMA. The moment this fight was announced, taking into consideration the tension between Dana and Silvas camp, I expected nothing but a massacre. Dana knew this, thats why Forrest was picked, Slva needed to look great. As it happened, it turned out to be that Silva wanted to embarrass Forrest to make a point.

    The comparison is the "schooling" part, yes they were different kind of ko's but he still made Franklin, Lebon and Irvin look silly right? :D and that's what i was talking about, and as for the jab finishing the fight, well Forest had been badly hurt just seconds before when Silva knocked him down for the second time and put in some hard punches on the ground, Forest gave it one final push even though he was hurt and the fact that he was unbalanced when he got caught didn't help him either, i'm not surprised he ran off, that was embarrassment personified :lol:.

    I'm surprised you're backing Anderson after ripping him apart after his last two fights!! :D, but the beast came out to play tonight and that was the result.

    Forrest looked like **** and has lost any resistance. IMHO Silva is not the greatest MMA fighter ever. Fedor is the man who has the right to that claim. P4P I think GSP has the skills to beat Silva. Size is another matter.

    There's always one hater :lol: , Gsp would get absolutely taken apart by Silva, even if they were in the same weight class the outcome would be the same, people rave about Gsp's takedowns but Torres escaped each and every one of them so there's no doubt Silva would do the same, and we all saw what happened when he stood toe to toe with Serra :rofl, as for Fedor, his competition of late has been very poor and as Silva is killing people in TWO DIFFERENT weight classes and is just miles more skillful than Fedor he holds the crown right now.

    GSP is too small for Silva. Even if I am in the camp that GSP can take Silva down. This thing gets stood up for a mere 15 seconds, GSPs getting Koed, absolutely no doubt in my mind. Silva will get this fight stood up a few times you can bet your house.

    People arent understanding, you cant stand with Silva.

    Why are people so absurd?

    He got knocked down 3 times in 3 minutes. After the first two he would have went down if Anderson sneezed on him.

    If a boxer went down 2 times in the same round nobody would think anything of it. but that requires rational thought, something we never seem to get from boxing only fans watching MMA.

    Not hating at all. I appreciate Silva for sure. Dana can preach all he wants about who is P4P. Notice I said IMHO. Do you know what that means? P4P is a matter of personal preference. Hence mine not yours. You have yours I have mine. Fedors comp has been no worse than Silva's and his last three fights have looked better than Silva's last three. 2 former UFC champs and all three totaled 6 mins. Gimme a break.

    Are you talking about the KO? If so I don't think that is a very fair way to claim a guy has weak punch resistance. First of all it was a kick, more importantly it was a perfectly thrown kick.

    Agreed. I think his chin has turned to china though.

    I think Henderson would give Silva a better run for his money this time. All we need is a very good wrestler to hold him down for 5. If Henderson sticks to the game plan I think he could pull it off.
