You're a boxing guy, though. The same thing that hinders a lot of UFC fighters also applies to the fans: if you're a jack of all trades, you're a master of none. The average MMA fan isn't going to see the tactical approach Silva uses to mind games. To you and I, we see Silva trying to mess with Weidman to create opportunities, to everyone else, they see Silva dancing around like a drunken jackass. Even when Dana, (edit: this typo made me laugh so I'm leaving it in) Wiemdan and Silva himself all confirmed that it was a mental game on Silva's part, people still think he was just trying to show off. If he was going to show off against anyone, it would have been Chael, but he didn't. There's a reason for that.

it was mind games i understand that.

But he was show boating for way too long & he could have put him away after Chris was tired after he blew his wod in the first half of the round. Silva was trying to put on a show and got caught.

If there is a rematch and he fights seriously he will put that guy away easily, he is way better than Chris

The fight had been over for like six hours at that point.

didn't Dana say he'd fire Anderson if he did that again?

**rocky16** · 07-08-13, 09:55 AM

Silva fans believe anything they want to I guess. I'm thinking this guy didn't see that Weidman was winning the fight up until he KO'd Silva.

Are you crazy? Silva was completely clowning Weidman. He was backing up and showboating, and even though he was missing most of his punches and Weidman hit him hard a few times, and even though Weidman was coming forward and backing Silva into the fence, and even though Silva did nothi-

FOCK.

Thats what i thought last time he did it, was a few years ago & i forget against who but Dana was pist because he was not fighting just dancing around.

But this time he was ok with it.

And yes if this happens again bet the house on it stone cold

Unless Spider decides to play because he doesnt care, someone threaten his family then he might take it serious

No, Dana said he'd fire Silva if he spent another fight dancing around and refusing to engage. He wasn't dancing around against Weidman, he was fighting with him, hence why he got knocked out. In the Maia fight, he wasn't even engaging with Maia and literally was hiding behind the ref, and running away.

If you think Silva is a lock in a rematch, you're a square.

Not sure why you pay, but that fight made the PPV one of the best PPVs of all it's time and of all the time and after this time there may never be another like it.

Silva got clowned worse than Forrest Griffin did when he fought Silva.

Now that is a stretch. Nothing is that bad. Close tho
