Agreed. Was a great fight. However, I don't think that there is any friendship between the two after what Silva did in his last fight. So as a CEO, yes. He's happy. As a person, there's no way he wanted Silva to win.

Sonnen got a little too complacent with the poor posture and careless arms.

30 seconds, maybe. He knocked him down at one point.

He thought it was over. Everyone in the building knew that Silva HAD to submit him to win. No way Sonnen should have given him the chance. I know he wanted to finish him. But he could've laid on him for two minutes. shite.

Sonnen would have beat Anderson like 50 to 44 if that fight goes another minute with him doing as he was doing. It was a blowout until the sub.

8 title defenses people will pay to see him get beat at this point.

they don't though. When he was murdering people they didn't, even before the 3 shite fights.

Only really Brock (by far #1), GSP and BJ Penn get high buy rates lately.

That's why it's 25 minutes and not 23:30. At least give Silva credit. Once he got knocked back down, I thought it was over. He didn't give up and found a way to win when it appeared that he had lost.
