Letting your guard down purposely to mock your opponent works on the fighter who get intimidated easily but this backfires when tried against guys with stronger nerves. That is what happened to Silva.

That's what you get for ******* around and taking an opponent too lightly. Silva had gotten too good for his own good. Lesson learned, I would think.

Never underestimate your adversary.

I love Silva, but I gotta say,

"Shazam, sumbitch!!!"

As a long time MMA fan,Tank Abbott anyone? I have to say,this almost had shades of WWF.
I love the way it ended considering Silva was acting like a total dick and all,but something just seemed fishy.

It took someone great to take out the champ and that's what Weidman is. Silva is getting on in years at 38, but I hope he comes back hungry after this. I think his skill has outweighed his hunger for a long time now.

Anderson has fought that way many times and 99% of the time it worked like a charm

Dude was a nut and could take a beating.
MMA has come a long way since those days.


Oh I've seen Silva fight. This one just seemed a little strange,almost contrived.

 

[Vikrant]

I can spot a fake fight in five seconds. There was nothing staged about that fight. Weidman defeated an arrogant Silva fair and square.

So what exactly are your creds?
I want this fight to be real because I cant stand Silva. So I'm not doubting it because my guy lost.
Maybe it was the pathetic display put on by Silva that makes me doubt it.
