I was at Jake’s last fight in Tampa and sat directly behind his best friend Jon’s girlfriend (Abby) and her friends. We struck up a conversation and she was telling me how if Jake won they planned on going to Miami that night, but that if he lost they likely wouldn’t go because he’d be too bummed out. She told me they were honestly expecting him to lose. When he landed the KO punch it was a huge shock to them all. They were all ecstatically screaming and then a few minutes later Jon came and got them and they hopped over the rail and left. One thing I can say for certain is, that was no dive.

Rogan said the other day that if Anderson had focused only on boxing during his career, he probably would have been a world champion.


Rogan just says whatever seems cool at the moment. He also said Charles Olivera could submitted a heavy weight ufc fighter prior to 280.

You mean like this doozy:

If you took the roster of the UFC's bantamweights, 135 pounds, and you paired them up against Ronda Rousey, she might be able to beat 50 percent of them. That’s not a joke.

The punch was REAL. And scripted in 6th round. You can see him cuing him with the other glove just before....

He basically said "You can knock the shite out of me for $$$$"...so the fall was legit.

Dont think Silva will agree.

Silva said he was knocked out twice by his sparring partners while training for this fight…that isn’t a good sign

i wonder if its just mind games...if that's true the fight should not be sanctioned.

the last time i saw Silva in the ring boxing he defeated a former champion...i don't think this is a smart move by Paul.

I can’t believe we will see Silva take a dive tonight. No way Paul took this fight without a guarantee he will win. Guess every man has is price.
