Now shit is going to get ugly!

Even if Sonnen loses (and I hope he doesn't) he's a legit badass!!

Who won?

Who won?
Silva won just after you posted.

shit.

Also shit. Figured it was coming though.
Hate Silva.

Oh this is not good for Team USA.....
Well at least we still have the Olympics :-)

Gotta give Silva credit though, classy in victory. Although Im sure that Silva being all class in winning is just another smack to Chael's face.

Question is, how would he have been if he lost

yep.

I really thought Chael had it that first round... Silva was on his back the whole time like a dirty slut

I don't know Ya Achmed mash-hura, I found that even though Chael brought Silva down, he wasn't able to capitalize on it, due to Silva's great control.
Round 2 was a total slaughter.

Chael never had an answer to Silva's striking. All it took was for the fight to stay up for a few minutes. Chael is also too careless on the ground. Silva would probably have submitted him again as well.

Yep, round 2 chael was seeing stars and tripping every two seconds!
Well, I enjoyed the chong le fight :-D
-
I said that Silva would stop him again...
-
I would retire if I were Silva. 15-0 in the UFC, 10 straight title defences. What a perfect way to go out as arguably the best ever.
-
Maybe Chael should concentrate more on learning to fight and less on smartass interview quips. ::)
-
Silva's a beast...Dan Henderson had him down for most of the 1st round and he rode that out too...and Henderson's a much better finisher than Sonnen. Once it became clear that Sonnen wasn't going to get Silva down in rd 2...it was just a matter of time.
Jon Jones vs Silva is the money fight.....

Didn't work out so well for Ortiz :-)

Chael is a one trick pony. A wrestler who tries to grind out decision wins.

Ortiz fucking gassed himself out. The dude talks all this shit about going to "Big Bear" and looks like shit. He couldn't even finish a puch drunk monkey like Forrest.
-
What the fuck fight were you people watching? Sonnen worked Silva in the first round. And if Rogan wasnt such a company man, he would have called it like it was. Silva did nothing in the second round and Sonnen went down by a phantom strike. Pride was fixed and Chael talks about it on Rogans podcast, and it looks like the fix is in with the UFC. I'm not saying Silva isn't the better fighter, but he did nothing in this phony fight.
-
nah.. Steven Seagal was looking for Richie in that arena..

It wasnt a phantom strike. Chael slipped while trying a spinning backfist. At first I was pissed because I thought (along with Rogan) that Silva gave him an illegal knee to the face while he was down. Turns out, it was a perfect knee to the midsection which probably knocked all the wind out of Chael. You can't slip (literally) against Silva.

Nah, Silva completely dominated Chael when they hit the ground. Chael had his one shot in the first round and just couldn't close the deal.
Pride, K1 and especially sumo, have long connections to organized crime in Japan ie. yakuza. I don't think the money involved over here really makes that likely. Of course when people gamble there can always be dives, but there just isn't any reason for that to happen at the organizational level. Heck, it'd make for a better storyline if Sonnen won and there was a rubber match...

Whatever bro. Rogan was so far up Silva ass in the first round while Chael had total control it wasn't even funny. When I heard Rogan talking up Silva, I told everyone in the room that the fix was in. Chael dominated the first even though he didn't hurt Silva. But you wouldn't know that listening to Rogan. The fix was in and Chael took a dive.
-
Sonnen should have stuck to the game plan...he had no hope of landing a spinning backfist...he threw a hail mary too early and it cost him.

Like I have said before, Sonnen fought his perfect fight the first time. There was no way he was going to be able to take Silva down repeatedly for 5 rounds again. Another problem with Chael, is that he doesn't finish fights. You have to be able to put a guy like Silva away, not hope to ride out 5 rounds with the best in the world.

Everyone saying Silva dominated the 2nd round just isn't the truth. Sonnen was pressing the whole time and was never hurt. He fell over with the spinning back fist and Silva knee him in the mid section, then Chael covered up and basically submitted(took a dive) There wasn't one time in the fight when the announcers were talking about Silva being in trouble or being worked. And Sonnen was controlling the whole fight.

Since when are knees to the head allowed when someone's on the ground(even though it was a phantom knee)the ref should have stopped the fight for an illegal phantom knee

Rogan apologized for his mistake towards the end of the first round. He misspoke and said, "During this round, the champion has clearly been dominant...I apologize, I meant the challenger".
Even though Chael brought him to the ground, he did not take advantage (or frankly was not allowed to by Silva). The takedown was beautiful, but Silva kept Chael in half-guard and took away his advantage.
The second round allowed Silva to do exactly what he wanted to do, which was to have a striking match with Chael. Chael took a bad slip after attempting a spinning backfist and that completely turned the tables during the round. Afterwards, it was all downhill for Chael.
Soon, we'll be able to watch the Post-fight Press Conference at UFC.com

The knee was perfectly legal

Its hard man I know. I got all butt hurt when my boy Mir looked like complete shit against Dos Santos. I even said that I thought that fight was fixed. ;D Sonnen had a great first round, but it all went downhill (dan) when he couldn't get his first few takedowns in round 2.

Chael dominated the fight and took and illegal phantom knee to the head while down. The ref should have stopped the fight and warned Silva or taken a point.
-
The knee was perfectly legal
Thats not a legal knee. That knee was going for the face/head while he was sitting on his ass.
-
Terrible main event. C- entire card. Bad TV.
-
It wasn't a knee to the head....or are you just trolling?
-
Thats not a legal knee.
Yes it is. You can't knee to the head of a downed opponent.
-
Thats not a legal knee.
I wish it wasn't but everyone said after the replay, it was legal!
I wanted chael to win!
-
Yes it is. You can't knee to the head of a downed opponent.
WTF he was downed on his ass and he kneed the guy in the the forearms which would have been the head. Wtf are you guys on? That wasn't a midsection shot. He went for the head but Chael was cover up. The ref should have stopped the fight and adjusted.
-

Of course "everyone" said that...Cough Rogan. The fix was fucking in bro. You can't knee someone when there sitting on there ass. This wasn't a knee to the thigh or anything.
-

He kneed him right in the solar plexus. Silva knew exactly what he was doing.
-
You cannot knee a downed opponent in the head...you can knee him in the body. Silva cranked that knee squarely into Sonnen's body...it's the same strike Evans used to derail Tito Ortiz in their fight. Perfectly legal and very effective.

If it was to the head, then why didn't Chael make mention of it when Rogan interviewed him after the fight?
This is what Chael had to say, "He's a true champion, man," Sonnen said. "He got me with a good shot. I was on the ground, he got me with a good knee and other than that, I'm going to have to look at the tape."
He could have simply said that he doesn't understand why an illegal knee to the head was allowed by the ref, but he didn't, I wonder why? You know Chael is not shy and loves to be outspoken, so if he didn't say that, it was very clear that he didn't have the grounds to say so.

Listen to Rogan's podcast of Chael talking about MMA being fixed. Rogan was uncomfortable everytime Chael was bring it up. IMOP Chael was foreshadowing this fixed fight.He kept talking about MMA being fixed. Esp Pride fights. So if he took a dive, why in the world would he talk about a knee to the head while on the ground? He wouln't. He would take his check and move along. He even talked about MMA being the biggest thing in Brazil.

I don't know man. I heard that podcast and while I enjoyed Chael's real persona (he seemed like a genuinely nice guy who has the charisma of a WWF wrestler), I doubt this fight was in any way fixed man.
We've seen work in the past. Ken Shamrock comes to mind with regard to work, but this didn't have any signs of work.

By that logic, Chael definitely wouldn't have discussed the sport being fixed ahead of time, as it could potentially cast his bout in a negative light afterwards.

I'll leave it alone but it will be interesting to see how it all plays out. Rogan hardly had one good thing to say about Chael while the first round was happening and its obvious Chael was in total control. Although never really hurt Silva. Thought it was odd that the announcers weren't calling the fight the way it was going down. It was all Silva in their eyes and they wanted everyone to know it was Silva's night. Just weird.

No, no... Don't leave it alone.
I appreciate a solid discussion regarding controversial topics.
Just to show you that you do have a decent basis for believing in fights being fixed/work, I will post a .GIF showing where Ken Shamrock took a "dive" when fighting Rich Franklin many years back.
(http://i44.tinypic.com/f2ufcx.jpg)
I am not saying that it isn't possible. What I am saying is that these two guys (Chael & Anderson), have no reason to work the fight. There won't be a rematch now that Anderson beat Chael twice. If Anderson had lost the first match and now won the second, then we could argue that the fix was done in order to them fight a third match. Clearly, that isn't the case.

P.S. Ken Shamrock is notoriously known for taking dives in order to collect a quick payday, while receiving little to no physical harm.

Google the word foreshadowing. Rogan and Chael talk a lot about the ego. Chael is a total egomanic if not a sociopath. A man like him having to take a dive would want someone out there to know that he really didn't lose a fight. He even talks to Rogan about never ever losing a round by points in his life. Yet losing in other ways. The dude is a very smart guy. And imop took a dive tonight.
-
The UFC is a "closed shop" Zuffa owns that place lock stock and barrell. hey control who fights who and when. If they were going to up and fix a fight they sure as hell wouldn't have had Sonnen losing...they'd have put him over to set up a mega $$$$ rematch. Calling a fix doesn't even make sense....

I didn't see the fight, but I agree in regards to your assessment of Chael's personality.

While I agree that the gif looks fishy, I can't help but wonder if Ken got caught at the exact moment he was dropping to another level to go for the takedown.

There won't be a rematch because Chael got legitimate death threats by the thousands from people in Brazil. And Dana wants MMA to explode even more in Brazil if possible. Some of said that Dana wants Chael as far away from Brazil as possible. The last thing Dana wants is someone being killed over a fight(Chael/Silva) Chael losing in the 2nd round is perfect for Dana. Silva can move on and bring the brand to another level and Chael can go do his thing. Chael was the most hated man in America as far as Brazil MMA was concerned. In America, we would say thats good for business. But in Brazil, it's fucking deadly and the worst thing for a company(UFC)
-
LOL, that gif of 148 posted earlier looks like a dive if I ever saw one! This shit is starting to become as bad as boxing. Dana is terrible for this sport. He's a piece of shit clearly playing in to the hands of the turd-world savage fans in Brazil. Good thing Chael is a bad actor.

Over 50 people died one night in a soccer match in Brazil. They were looking at 80 to over 100 thousand people in the arena of the Chael/ Silva fight in Brazil. The only reason it didn't happen in Brazil is because "they" estimated over 100 deaths in that fight. Don't ask me how they came to that number but Chael would have caused a riot. Dana wants to move as far away from Chael as possible in terms of Brazil. UFC doesn't need that kind of attention in that country. MMA already sells ten fold there.

Go back 5 years and people on this board would tell you how Pride was the best of the best in MMA. Well Chael among others have come out and told use that Pride was totally fake. WWE style. HMMM Now we know why FEdor was such a badass.lol

After tonight I'm definitely looking at Fedor in a new light. And after seeing that gif and hearing what Chael said on the podcast I'm 99% convinced he took a dive. I'll never pay for another UFC event (not that I've paid for many--but a couple). What a joke. And you're right, sociopath Sonnen was subtly letting the people know that he didn't *really* lose.

He really wanted to talk about fake fights with Rogan who clearly was trying to cover for some fighters. I'm a huge believe in "people in the know" wanting to leave clues(foreshadow) things. Chael is fucking badass to the most degree. What he did in the first round was the whole fight to me. I also would say that he most likely lost the first fight on purpose as well. Dana is fucked in the head and only thinks about business. And Silva is a god in Brazil. I think Chael putting down Brazil in a passive aggressive way was also his way of foreshadowing the future. One more unreal thing about the Rogan podcast was Chael talking about DB COOPER out of the blue. The DB COOPER Hoax cemented Chael's foreshadowing to me.
-
Don't you guys think that they would have let Tito win his farewell fight tonight? That would have been a "fixable" fight right?

Dana hates Tito with a passion. And lets not forget, Tito eats the pussy of whores. You can't respect any man who does that regardless of what they do.

What would that say about guys like Chael then? What real man takes dives, and loses on purpose? Real fighters would never do that shit.
-

Thats true. Tito is the ultimate attention whore. If there is fight fixing, you can expect Tito to come out with a book and do tons of interviews, now that he is out of the UFC.

And
Why does Dana hate Tito?

Real fighters wouldn't fight in the biggest event on the planet then. They would be stuck fighting tuff man contest etc. I agree it sucks. These guys still or the baddest mother fukcers on the planet. It just means that like NBA basketball, the best of the best still have to play by the Billionaires rules.
-
LOL ;D
And
Why does Dana hate Tito?
Come on bro. Dana and Tito hated each other for years. Let me guess, you just got into MMA over the past couple years?
-
If the fight was fixed, Silva would have lost.

If the fight was fixed, Silva would have lost.
Not when he's the biggest thing in his country and the guy who almost beat him the first time got hundreds if not thousands of death threats. Dana wants Chael far and away from Silva. Chael's ego let us in on all of this by completely putting down Brazil. Chael was telling Dana, OK, you win, but i'm not going out quietly. ;) If you have a couple hours to kill sometime, listen to Rogans podcast with Chael. It's a very good listen but Chael is also telling the listeners something. Fake Mma fights, Cro Cop being a phony etc. He even talks about knowing who DB COOPER was...Which is obviously some kind of code to the viewer about things not being what they seem.

Plenty of Brazilian fighters have lost in UFC title matches before. If the "fix was in" there'd be plenty of more realistic reasons than the fear of angry Brazilians causing mayhem, murder and the loss of future financial revenue. The always-ready-to-surrender French beat Brazil 3-0 in the '98 World Cup Final and yet Zinedine Zedane and Thierry Henry still bravely walk the streets of this planet, and soccer errr football is still kinda popular there. Neither Dana nor Chael would throw a fight for some bullshit reason like this.
-
For all you who have watched the Rogan Podcast. Supposedly the rumor goes that after Rogan found out that Chael was foreshadowing(fucking with him) he was extremely pissed. Chael talked about fake MMA fights, fake Bigfoot and bigfoot suits, DB COOPER. He led Rogan into a rant about a bigfoot video which everyone on the planet knows is fake yet Chael told Rogan he believed it to be real. Rogan took the bait and ran with it. Only to have Chael passive aggressively say to Rogan, "you're right now that I look at it that way". Rogan didn't know what Chael was doing at the time but later found out and was pissed that he now looks like a fool. And all of this leading up to a fixed MMA fight that Chael did for a huge payday with Silva. Watch the podcast people. Chael is telling you exactly whats going on.

Dana hates Tito with a passion. And lets not forget, Tito eats the pussy of whores. You can't respect any man who does that regardless of what they do.
Stole the words right out of my mouth! Dana does not like Tito one bit.
-

Exactly. You lick the hole, you swallow the pole. Real men don't do that.
-
Come on bro. Dana and Tito hated each other for years. Let me guess, you just got into MMA over the past couple years?
Yes, I've only been watching it for a few years.... Is that a problem or something? :-) lol
You still haven't answered me... WHY have they hated each other for years?
-
I would retire if I were Silva. 15-0 in the UFC, 10 straight title defences. What a perfect way to go out as arguably the best ever.
Agree when there's guys in the " hall of fame" with records of ~19-10
-
If it was to the head, then why didn't Chael make mention of it when Rogan interviewed him after the fight?
This is what Chael had to say, "He's a true champion, man," Sonnen said. "He got me with a good shot. I was on the ground, he got me with a good knee and other than that, I'm going to have to look at the tape."
He could have simply said that he doesn't understand why an illegal knee to the head was allowed by the ref, but he didn't, I wonder why? You know Chael is not shy and loves to be outspoken, so if he didn't say that, it was very clear that he didn't have the grounds to say so.
"1"
Agree, especially after watching the replay
-
He really wanted to talk about fake fights with Rogan who clearly was trying to cover for some fighters. I'm a huge believe in "people in the know" wanting to leave clues(foreshadow) things. Chael is fucking badass to the most degree. What he did in the first round was the whole fight to me. I also would say that he most likely lost the first fight on purpose as well. Dana is fucked in the head and only thinks about business. And Silva is a god in Brazil. I think Chael putting down Brazil in a passive aggressive way was also his way of foreshadowing the future. One more unreal thing about the Rogan podcast was Chael talking about DB COOPER out of the blue. The DB COOPER Hoax cemented Chael's foreshadowing to me.
Interesting - sounds plausible.

Anyone remember Dan Severn? wasn't he in heat for worked fights?

You cannot knee a downed opponent in the head...you can knee him in the body. Silva cranked that knee squarely into Sonnen's body...it's the same strike Evans used to derail Tito Ortiz in their fight. Perfectly legal and very effective.
It was to the chest from what I see

Yes it was. I do agree with Snoman that some of the fights in the UFC over the years, have looked fishy. I go back to the Anderson Silva fight vs. Forrest, where forrest was flopping around like a dying fish from Silva's jabs. I also remember all of the horrible decisions over the years.

It was very apparent that Chael didn't remember what hit him.
Give him a day or two. He'll make mention of it.
IMO, that knee was borderline illegal. Looks like it hits his chest and chin with his thigh. Overall, the right call was made.

A few fights in the ufc and pride were obvious fixes. Don Frye/ Mark Hall. John Mccarthy commented that Hall simply fell into Fryes submission. Hall even complained later that he was supposed to get paid for that but never did. Some pride matches were probably fixed but all of them? Did quinton agree to be brutalized and left hanging on the ropes with blood dribbing out of his mouth? Did fedor risk potential injury by agreeing to be dropped on his head so he can win via submission? A large majority of fights are legit.
Its amusing that people take everything chael says so seriously. His own team mates have said that when he's on camera its hard to tell when "serious" chael and "camera" chael show up. He mixes both personas very well. Off camera he's apparently a different cat. Chael does what he needs to do to sell a fight. He only started this trash talking persona recently and its working. He got a lot of attention and a potential future career as a commentator lined up. As for chael saying all that pride fights were fixed.....i'd have to listen to the podcast but its safe to say that it was " camera" chael doing the talking. Lets dispense with the conspiracy theories. Besides he made a mistake in the heat of the moment with that elbow and paid for it during the fight. It happens.

I think Dana should offer both Jones & Silva a ridiculous purse for the match and make it happen for December 2013 as a superfight.
I believe that Anderson would win that fight and right after should retire as the best fighter in history.

anthony(mad dog) macias took a dive also against oleg

LOL ;D
And
Why does Dana hate Tito?
Tito was a tough negotiator and demanded to be paid properly. He didnt want to accept whatever the UFC was willing to pay him. This led to a lot of arguements between his and Dana who used to manage him and Chuck in the past. Chuck was a company guy but Tito pushed for and got higher paychecks. He was one of the smarter guys who refused to bow down to dana. In the first Tito/chuck fight ( the one he ducked for awhile) Tito got paid way more than Chuck despite the fact that Chuck won. Dana and Tito will always have this love hate relationship when it comes to getting paid but that has never stopped either from doing business with each other.
-

There are a few confirmed cases out there that are beyond the shadow of doubt. The one with franklin and ken that OMR posted is also highly suspect. I remember that fight and Ken "slipped" twice during the match.
Recently Bob Sapp implied that he takes dives so he doesnt get injured but gets paid well for it.

I've said this before and I'll say this again, I don't mind SMM posting here. I think that, for the most part, he was one of the more entertaining posters on this forum.
It certainly beats this new breed of slack-jaw gimmicks that simply take joy rides on the dicks of veteran posters for fun.
I mean look above, I have a groupie that decided to simply post in my thread to make light of the fact that I made a post prior to the start of a fight on PPV. That's what you call reaching to try to get attention.
The way I see it, nothing makes me happier than having a grown man think about me constantly and follow me around the forum "trying" to insult me or "hurt" my feelings. After all, I am gay and that's a huge compliment.

He's not saying that. He's saying that the fixed fights were for the most part those involving Wanderlei and Cro Cop. Which is totally believable considering the Yakuza have been rumored to be involved in Pride for years. Wanderlei couldn't even beat Franklin who is a year older and basically a gatekeeper now. Yet in Pride he had the record for the most ko victories.
Probably a lot of Fedors fights were fixed too.

I don't agree. it would be very difficult for Jones to drop that much weight. Anderson can't even convincingly beat Sonnen. We watched him get smacked around by Sonnen and completely controlled throughout the first round, before Sonnen gave up or threw the fight. You think he has a chance against Jones? He'd be tossed around at Jones' whim. It would be a very one sided beating.

Franklin is a subpar fighter and older than Wandy. Chuck Liddell is brain damaged and older than Wandy...
I've heard these excuses before and it's not believable anymore. Prides ko king did nothing in the UFC. He was made to look good in Pride because he went ape shit on guys that were paid to go down.

He kneed him right in the solar plexus. Silva knew exactly what he was doing.
Silva being taller then Sonnen, Sonnen sitting on his butt, how would Silva be able to drive his knee in Sonnen's chest?
Put your girlfriend to sit down on the floor and stand in front of her and see if your knee reaches her head or her solar. You would have to go down more on the other knee to be able to reach her solar.
While she's sitting down there anyway, get down on 1 knee and give her your flute: perfect height. Enjoy, you're welcome ;)

Some of the vids have a bad angle of the knee, with the ref in the way. This one shows it from two angles, and in the clearest view it's apparent that Silva is in fact descending as he brings in the knee; he almost slides in with the knee. He's not going after Sonnen's head.

For all you who have watched the Rogan Podcast. Supposedly the rumor goes that after Rogan found out that Chael was foreshadowing(fucking with him) he was extremely pissed. Chael talked about fake MMA fights, fake Bigfoot and bigfoot suits, DB COOPER. He led Rogan into a rant about a bigfoot video which everyone on the planet knows is fake yet Chael told Rogan he believed it to be real. Rogan took the bait and ran with it. Only to have Chael passive aggressively say to Rogan, "you're right now that I look at it that way". Rogan didn't know what Chael was doing at the time but later found out and was pissed that he now looks like a fool. And all of this leading up to a fixed MMA fight that Chael did for a huge payday with Silva. Watch the podcast people. Chael is telling you exactly whats going on.
Why didn't Dana or Rogan take that podcast down or broadcast it anyway if it was going to be damaging for MMA/UFC?
Was it a live podcast at the time?

Lulz @ fighting like a bitch.
There is no such thing as "fighting like a bitch" in a competitive combat sport. Its called style, or strategy.
No one gives a fuck if you fight like a "man" and lose.
You win however you can. Silva seems to have it figured out, even though I hate him.
-
Ummm, not really, no...
Yes you are right, I see it now, thanks
so i say the same thing but I'm wrong? ::)
I've watched the fight a few times now, and here is the official verdict. Chael is a one-trick pony, he tried to replicate his sucess in the first fight, but Silva defended it a thousand times better, he didn't get caught with a clean shot and controlled him on the ground. Second round he let his hands go and fucked Sonnen up, and finished him fair and square.
There is no "fix"..that's patently ridiculous. If the fix was in, the fight goes to Sonnen and there is a MEGA third fight, as it stands now...Silva is 2-0 and has no reason to fight the guy again. Sorry, but i don't buy that Chael threw the fight because of political pressure from Brazil, that's the funniest thing I've heard in a while. I like Abdominal Snoman...but lately every post he makes, no matter what the subject ...is ridiculous, "there's a man behind the curtain" bullshit. It was a straight-up fight and Sonnen got beat...case closed.
It's not even like he's one of the all time greats and this is shocking, he's a good fighter who made a name for himself with his personality, and had the fiight of his life in the first fight against Silva, and still LOST by the way.
PS Joe Rogan called the fight just fine, he wasn't kissing Silva's ass.

Sonnen lost fair and squard. Silva had his number.

LOl at "nomad" I'm sure he's some dorky kid that never leaves his basement and gets pick on at school every day.

Sure. It's easy to do when you are watching it at home on Pay Per View and have a laptop sitting right on your lap.
Am I clear?
"1"
Do gays multi-task as well as regular women OMR?

To OMR - something you can check on and report back since you know Renzo.
In an interview with Helwani Chael mentioned that he got a call from Renzo and it got him to quiet down. Supposedly Renzo was not that happy on the phone and Chael said that some guys like the Gracies and Couture are off limits and MMA royalty and when they call he shuts up and listens..no back talk. Helwani pressed him for more details but Chael didnt elaborate further. This interview was more real Chael than camera Chael so I'd be curious as to what Renzo berated him about on the phone. Moat likely it was the attacks on brazil or on Silvas family but who knows..
Based on the post fight press conference Anderson has no interest incfighting Jones.

so i say the same thing but I'm wrong? ::)
How is that even the same thing?? ::)
He's not the most accurate striker but yes the knee didn't hit his face

I've watched the fight a few times now, and here is the official verdict. Chael is a one-trick pony, he tried to replicate his sucess in the first fight, but Silva defended it a thousand times better, he didn't get caught with a clean shot and controlled him on the ground. Second round he let his hands go and fucked Sonnen up, and finished him fair and square.

Haha bullshit. Anderson was entirely dominated the first round. Anderson was on his back getting smacked like Chaels bitch with no answer! And we're supposed to believe he did a spinning back fist and slipped the put his hands up like he forgot how to defend himself. This is definitely a work.
-
LOL! :D
-
Why don't you fight him and show him how it's done "Nomad"?
Am i clear?
;D ;D

yes, because that's what happened. he fought his ass off the whole fight
he put his hands up like "oh fuck...i'm sitting on my ass in front of Anderson Silva, I'm screwed"
PS you are an idiot roll regardless
