Damn that was horrible

Because he couldn't ****ing stop it.

 

even if you disagree you need to stop calling me an idiot every time you post.. :verysad

silva did a lot in the first 4 rounds on purpose.. he stood there and let the guy punch him in the chin 4 times just to show he can take his best punch, instead of moving his head or feet. he LET himself get taken down with no resistance when he didn't have to. he didnt just relax because it was his only option.. its obvious he had energy in reserve to explode when he felt like it.. thats why every round he got more warmed up and his opponent got more gassed. the punches landed on silva on the ground because silva LET them, they didnt hurt him. his chin is made of steel. he was showboating with those elbows to the top of the head.. when a person is fighting for their life they don't do things like that. its the equivalent of pernell whitakers behind the back punch. it looks cool but is not the most effective.. you can call me names, and follow me around the forum like the loser you are.. but in the end i get the last laugh because you are probably some fat out of shape "fan". while i have actually rolled with champion grapplers like wellington diaz, and have been in the ring with jose benavidez.. i know you have strong opinions but you don't know what you're talking about. you might be someone here but in real life you're nobody, you get no respect

 

I would, but you are, in fact, the classic defintion of an idiot. You essentially said you could beat Roger Huerta's ass in a street fight if you were angry enough. That is just one pearl of stupidity from a large collection.

He absolutely did not get taken down on purpose, unless he planned on losing the fight.

He is on record as saying that he simply wasn't fighting that well because his mind was elsewhere (family), which directly implies that he was not consciously planning on being taken down.

You are making up excuses even Silva isn't using, and you don't even need to; he won the fight in the end.

He got beat up, despite trying not to, and then won with a great comeback, end of.

Yes, some stuff was showboating, letting him land, but a lot was not.

That was not. That was him getting hit when he did not want to get hit.

Again, not letting him do that, just can't stop it.

 

Did I ever say I could beat up Roger Huerta? What the hell are you talking about? Listen i'm not biased, I actually was one of the few rooting for the underdog and saying by looking at him I think he has a chance.. He looks strong, in shape, and serious. You know nothing about fighting.. You're like Jim Lampley trying to give Floyd advice. You're making yourself look really bad. It really doesn't matter what silva says.. To the casual noob fan like yourself, everything the announcers scream about is the most important. To a fighter with experience, we watch what is really doing the damage, where people's stamina is at, where their head is at. Silva was mentally in charge the whole time regardless of what it looked like. It was a rope-a-dope.. His opponent just got more and more tired and discouraged and silva won on his first sub attempt.

If it was a rope a dope, why is he trying to stop it? What evidence is there that it was a strategy to have the fight so lopsided for 4 rounds?

I'm not giving him advice, I'm saying what the evidence shows, he had to finish the fight to win, he did. You are making up excuses that don't need to be made, yes he performed poorly for 4 1/2 rounds, but he got the finish, he needs to excuse such as "oh, it was his plan" It wasn't his plan, he just couldn't stop it from happening.

Who the **** do you think you are kidding?

Why attempt a kimura, and then a heel hook, if your plan is to let the other guy take you down and pound on you?

More gameplan in action.

Defending like hell to keep Sonnen down, only to fail and get double legged by Sonnen yet again. Really goes against the "wanted to be taken down" bull****.

 

Oh?

i suppose maybe we are both right in a way. at 6:54 in this vid

sonnen says he expected more resistance and so did i. maybe silva's just not as good as i thought, even if he isnt, i know he wasn't trying as hard as he could (hence the letting sonnen unload on his chin). that had nothing to do with his rib injury. but i have seen a lot of fixed fights in UFC and i still think dana told silva to make it a competitive fight for some good publicity. yea it looked close sometimes but silva was never really in trouble. and you dont do some of the things silva did if you thought you had a chance of losing.. like the elbows to the top of the head, and the exposing his chin on purpose, like kimbo did in that back yard brawl. once again, you dont do things like that if you're really getting your ass beat.

and i was wrong about him winning on his first sub attempt. we could have had a reasonable conversation about it if you didnt have to be a dip**** and call me an idiot 4 times.

 

I'm sorry, you actually are an idiot, there is no getting around it.

Who the **** do you think you are kidding?

 

why would you show this to defend your argument. that was a **** poor attempt at a sub, he had it and let it go.

 

Do you know what I have many boxers say when you get rocked early in a fight although you seem normal your reactions are slightly off. I was reading an article in the new scientist, which says that even minor concussion slows reaction time.

 

Silva got straight-up embarrassed and beaten down.

I'm reading this "Anderson let himself be humiliated so he could come back in the last few minutes with a hail mary sub" from a lot of fans who seem confused because the top P4P MMA fighter looked like trash.

Anderson always had poor wrestling and now we know he has overrated striking skills. His middleweight run is filled with mediocre opposition, credit to Sonnen for rising above his level, if only for one fight.

 

It wasn't really **** poor it was just properly defended, he gave up on the kimura to go for the heel hook, the point is he tried it, which is not something you would do against Chael Sonnen if you didn't want him to tap.

You can tap Sonnen on accident.
