UFC 148 Silva v Sonnen Discussion Thread

Horrible event IMO

 

I like GSP but he is behind Silva :deal

Dana should have already made that fight! atsch

 

Jones knows what his bread and butter is, and that's taking **** to the ground and using elbows. He would use his length and extreme reach advantage to pull off chokes and strikes Silva just can't get in training. Saw how he choked out Lyoto against the cage? Silva used the cage here to help stay up what's to say Jones doesn't try to pull a standing choke against Silva.

Silva would be the toughest fight for Jones and Jones would be the toughest fight for Silva.

 

You can only beat whos in front of you. Plus GSP has lost at least 2 in UFC.

Just look at the skills man......No comparison. :rofl

 

Why? It would sell out the Bell Centre(hell it might get moved to a larger facility) or a stadium in Brazil. HOFer vs HOFer, Champion vs Champion. The two most dominant champions in history going at it. The build up would be huge, and I wouldn't be surprised if they jammed a second title fight on there as well.

 

The main card was GREAT.

 

Sonnen got beat by Bisping. Remember that people. Way too many people fell for the hype.

 

Again you would think so, but in the heat of the battle Anderson is very good at drawing you in coz He does get hit from time to time and then boom. I really think Silva will beat him standing up so He better not play.

The perfect tactic is either taking Anderson down or pinning him to the cage (which aint exactly hard) But He does have a way of goading you in into a striking contest and once you get tagged ala Hendo fight, you cant recover.

 

fantastic !

 

After Jones beats up Hendo they need to make Jones v Silva , it is the Mayweather v Pac of MMA type build up.

 

Uhhhhh...did you watch the fight or are you talking ****?

 

Anderson may have the best UFC record but GSP's losses to Serra and Hughes are much less worse than Anderson's to some Jap can and another Jap Can...oh and another loss to add to that. GSP has W's over a couple ATGs, Anderson does not besides Hendo.

 

I enjoyed it. May do another one. See you Vic.

 

:good
I´ll watch the Penek fight now....

 

Anybody record an angle that shows a crunching, concussive knee landing on Sonnen's chest?
