If you like Silva, check out St. Pierre, Urijah Faber and BJ Penn. All explosive, very sharp fighters that excell in the all around game. These are also all MMA top P4P fighters. Saw it, impressive, as usual. Ordered the Affliction Card, that was well worth 39.95.
Yah, I had to record the whole thing cuz I was out. Watched bits and pieces....saw one guy get robbed IMO. Got poked in the eye and went down from it. The guy who did it had been warned 2-3 times already for it, and this time he got him straight in the eye and instead of DQ'ing the guy, he got a TKO? The guy who lost though was extremely gracious. He didn't badmouth the dude, said he understood it was an accident, and even told the fans to stop booing saying "it's a fight, things happen in a fight!"
I've seen all those guys, especially impressed with St Pierre and Penn. It's just Silva seems to be effortlessly on his own level striking wise. I know the guy he was fighting tonight had viscious power, so I expected a bit of a test. Especially since Irvin has fought at HW. Then BAM, out.....
Yha I was expecting a DQ when they announced that one. It was a solid card for free tv expet the Vera fight wich sucks because he is one of my favs.
