it wouldnt have been so bad had gonzaga put together a string of victories. he has been a disappointment in his career. the man just gets knocked out too easy.


I was looking at it more from the Cro cop wasn't very good in the UFC angle. Gabe was a big time up and comer until he won that fight. Seems like he dropped out of contention after

Silva was dominated in early round 1 ad taunted because he wanted no part of being taken down again. The fight was never e en close. That was a dominant performance which led to a desperate silva trying to toe weidman o of his game and although he did weidman still clocked him

In a rematch weidman wins again

This is nothing like a lucky shot like sera

By the way, I've always thought Silva only does that shite when he is afraid of a guys ground game.

like sonnen?

he does that out of habit from being the fastest in the ring and making the other guy make a mistake. just like when guys fight with low hands, its only a matter of time before it bites you in the arse.

I was thinking of Maia and the other shitty fight he had where he was doing that. Sonnen has great takedowns, so I think Anderson realized that in the second fight and decided he better be more aggressive standing up. Not to mention I actually think Sonnen got under his skin.

ETA: Thales Leitas was the other shitty fight I was talking about.

You seem to know a lot about this sport. I don't watch it, so excuse my ignorance, but did Silva actually try to win this fight? He got knocked out while he was mocking Weidman? That seems like an odd way to go out. I don't know. It just seemed like that Silva guy didn't even care.

He usually does that because his reach is larger and he is drastically quicker than his opponents. To get a punch in you have to get way inside his range. 99% of the time he catches guys reaching to touch him or loading up a knockout punch which he dodges and counters.

But he really does it around the midpoint of the round to kill time so that he only has to do a quick flurry at the end to score punches/points and win the round should it go to a decision.

It's the Brazilian version of Greg Jackson's patented land two punches and one fence clinch to win round one, forcing your opponent to take extra chances to try and win rounds 2&3.

That sucks. If I were Weidman, it would feel like a bitter sweet victory for me.
