    Fight over. Liddel controlled most of the third round. Even threw a spinning backfist at one point. Round to Chuck.

    Gotta give the fight the Liddlel.

    Chuck's takedowns made me laugh. Anyway, decision Chuck here. Silva's punching is horrendous. The only reason his striking is called good is because he had insane knees in the Muy Thai clinch. He didn't use him here though, swung his wild ass punches, and got picked apart by Chuck. I expected as much. Silva's striking has always been overrated. If he can't knee you to death, he's next to useless.

    Silva should retire. The guy's head is twice the size is used to be after the last few beatings he's taken.

    Silva looked like a shot fighter in this fight. His chin was the only thing that looked good...

    And now we get Chuck/Rampage 3 down the road. Yawn. Does there deserve to be a third match if it's already 2-0 for one guy?

    His striking has never been that good without his knees. But yeah, he's certainly shot. I don't think he's been nearly the same fighter since Cro Cop almost killed him. Then Hendo blasted him.

    I just don't see where Silva can go from here in the UFC. Maybe throw him and Houston Alexander in a fight that would certainly be entertaining. He's not going to be the UFC champ anytime soon, and will likely get KTFO out in one of his next few fights.
