    Very true I remember when Dana made Franklin throw the fight against Silva obvious WWE job right there

    Still not as bad as when he made Munoz throw the Weidman fight. Munoz wasn't even hurt, Weidman was barely touching him, got to the point where the ref didn't even want to stop it but Munoz kept pretending he was out so he had to.

    And David Stern tells the referees which teams he wants in and how long the series should be. If Dana White is fixing these matches then he needs another choreographer because I have paid for and watched many PPV events where the matches were less than gripping. He has GSP taking acting classes from Vince McMahon as we speak .

    Thank gawd the UFC doesn't play it straight and let these brutes fight. They're all pussies anyway. They wouldn't last thirty seconds with any of the guys in this thread.

    Shit was fixed. Silva made pretend his eyes rolled back into his skull. Now the rematch will be worth more and they'll let Silva dismantle that bum Weidman.

It's what he's always done. It was brilliant then, and it's brilliant now, but every tactic has its flaws, and Weidman took advantage.

    There was no fluke there.
    Well put. I copied and pasted this to the MMA thread in a non-mma forum to explain to all the stupid heads.

    This.. Shit was pretty obvious from his post fight interview. He has everything he could ever want. Just a sad way to go out.
