Belfort has a legit chance at him

I don't get what you're tring to prove.

Are you suggesting that Anderson tactically planned to get his arse beat for an entire fight, only to pull off a lucky sub with less that 2 minutes?

Who gives a frick what Sonnen looked like? You would have to be an idiot if you believe that Anderson hurt Sonnen more in that fight. Don't let those cuts fool you.

This fight proved why Silva is the best. The guy got taken to the wood shed the whole fight but takes him out in the final round like that. Definately a one sided fight but I mean any man who can take that kind of beating and still manage to win is the best.

Silva got his fukn arse beat for 20 something minutes. Do u understand that?


and my 30 second comment was based on the 30 seconds Silva hit Sonnen and knocked him back. I have been saying this whole time Silva was getting murdered. So yes, I understand your reading comprehension isn't the best now.

How? He tapped out. He lost. He looked impressive, but not even he can claim victory in this fight.

Every time I watch Sonnen he just looks like he's punishing people, and right from the go, and I think there's no way the guy can last but the dude NEVER stops anybody. The last time he stopped somebody was that fricking Kyacey Uscola guy that was on Ultimate Fighter.

As good as he looked, in the rematch he'll have to go 5 rounds without making many mistakes on his feet or on top. My first thought was he wins the rematch, but now that I think about it, I'm not so sure.

I dont give a shite who took more damage, the guy lost. How he lost is completely irrelevent. Silva was good enough at something to make sonnen tap like a bitch, and thats literally all that matters.

No, this fight proved that he is beatable.

anyone with half a brain could see Silva was getting destroyed. It is a testament that he found a way to win, but lets not get carried away with some dumb arse point.

at this point...maybe

He looked disinterested almost again tonight. Hands at the waist letting one of the worst strikers in MMA drop him, not even attempting to defend some of the Munoz-esque crawling takedowns.

He was talking all this shite about wanting to go down as the greatest and jump down to fight GSP, then up to LHW and HW to beat all these top guys. then he had that Maia fight and now he talks about wanting to stay at MW until retirement, not wanting to fight Shogun anymore because they used to train together (even though they had a falling out), not willing to go down to fight GSP anymore saying GSPed have to come up to him etc etc. His heart might not be in it anymore. I wouldn't doubt him retiring within the next 2 or 3 fights.

How was it lucky? Silva had been trying to set up arm bars and triangles the majority of the fight (Sonnen kept on leaving his arms in). Sonnen got sloppy and paid for it.

Got to give Sonnen credit. That dude did not backdown at all. He ran his mouth the whole time and delivered an arse whupping. Hope we see a rematch, but I got a feeling that pussy Silva will retire before it happens.

Belfort has a WAAAY better chance then I thought. Sonnen was tagging him in the stand up and Vitor is way more dangerous there. I would still give the advantage to Anderson, but that is a great stand up match up.

no it isn't. who here is disputing that anderson didn't win the fight, retard? he still got his arse beat and sonnen provided a template on how to beat him. take your arse back to the rant.
