Anderson Silva lost!
 

The guy is not great for the sport but he is an amazing fighter and then to lose this way... Talk a blow to him and the sport.

over estimated himself, under estimated his opponent, got knocked the fuck out...

Doesn't anyone ever learn from history? The number of boxers who have done the same thing is legendary.

I've just seen the "highlights" of this, don't watch UFC myself. But that honestly looked like it was fixed/rigged/staged whatever you want to call it.

Not sure if it's bad for the sport. That's why UFC is good anyone can win on any given day.

No Silva has done this exact stuff before. It was the first time someone caught him is all. He just has a really fucked up mental game. He talks about being humble and he bows on his knees to the opponent after he wins but taunts and clowns during the fight. Totally messed up.

Wiedman won... much more than Silva lost.

I was so glad to see him knocked out. So arrogant and overconfident. You can bet he won't pull that crap again. Nice to see him get booed for it too.

It's a fucking street fight. Anyone could win. Give me few bottles of vodka I will beat his ass too

This is setting up for a nice rematch. When is the next pay per view bar fight?

UFC has become more entertainment than a sport. This fight was an absolute joke to say the least.

Nice gif of the knockout

I hate cocky fighters like that and glad to see him get knocked out

That was so frustrating to see Anderson lose by clowning around like that and getting caught. He kept saying in the post-fight interview that he respects the UFC & the fans, but I don't think he showed respect by toying with a serious challenger like that and getting knocked out. Especially since he may have very well won the fight if he took it seriously. Even more frustrating that he said he was retiring- at least from fighting for the belt- afterwards. Really, this was a blow to the sport.

He deserved it. He did the same thing in UFC 112 against Damian Maia. It turned out differently and he won that fight but for a time he lost a lot of fans due to his clowning. This time it helped to cost him the belt. I think he would have lost regardless though. At 38 his age has been slowly eating away at his speed.

What some people don't realize too about fighting is that in truth at just the right angle and upon hitting just the right spot (a million to one) your average ten year old girl could probably knock out a 250 pound MMA fighter. No one is invincible. No one.

Wow and I was waiting to see Silva vs GSP. Guess now it really doesn't matter much. All that clowning around and eventually he paid the price. lol

That is why it always makes me laugh when you watch fight scenes in movies. A guy gets hit 10 times to the face and is still standing when in reality, most people get hit once, maybe twice with a clean shot to the face they are going down hard.

Silva is a great fighter. He has incredible ability. I think he grossly underestimated his opponent and it cost him.

It will be interesting to see how he does in his next fight. I have a feeling the clowning and showboating will be gone.

No, no you won't.

RIP Silva

Silva clowned WAY to much.
Leave Anderson alone, he's only taking a short nap!

And that's totally stupid, why would you spend millions to shoot movie, but fail to make "normal" fight scene? When I was a kid Rocky was cool movie, but when I started boxing I understood - all fight scenes are total crap.

He deserved it. He is a clown. He is rich enough to play games thinking he is a God. Now he saw the kind of God he is! A fucking loser.

Even so he still made US$ 1.6 million with that dance.

Used to love watching him fight, i let out a cheer when he got sparked out, totally dis-resepectful and got what he deserved. Wiedman didnt allow himself to get suckered in, good job.

I have had that on repeat today!

Silva is a deadset cock the way he fucks up fights like that! Next to see is Jon Jones, would love to see him getting the kick shitted out of him ;)!

Also with re to his post fight interview - it almost sounds as though he has been wanting to get rid of the pressure of the belt for some time, hence the idiotic shit he does during fights.

I would second this. I read an account of the fight as I didn't watch it. The guy needs his head examined.

I take it you've never witnessed a street fight then..

He threw the fight

Wow. You're an (ex?) fighter so that is big coming from you. My impression was that he got caught clowning around as he did in his previous fights. Weidman took advantage of that and was expecting it. I didn't think he threw it but it's possible. Just because he obviously got knocked unconscious that does not negate the possibility of him allowing himself to get in that situation on purpose.

He sure didn't look very interested in winning

He did the exact same thing when he fought Damien Maia. Only difference is this time his assclowning got him knocked the fuck out. This gif says it all.

"That disrespectful piece of shit."

(I have no idea if that is what he actually said but that is what I'm going with because I like it)

If I was sponsoring him, I'd make a big publicity stunt to switch it over to the new champ.

I enjoyed watching him get KO'd It is about time :)

Not a single doubt in my mind he threw the fight... and now NSAC is investigating... tons of shit went down here as far as betting go's and that and the fact he so obviously threw the fight... now we will see courts and investigations


https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=KDWJEWVhANg go to 5:00 and watch .....

nah he wanted out

I love how everyone assumes Silva threw the fight and discredits Weidman's ability as a fighter.

Glad someone agrees with me! I didn't even watch the fight, was watching the short highlight package on a sports news channel, and thought "he threw that fight".

I don't think it discredits him, not that I care too much to be honest. If anything it discredits Silva and the UFC.

Reminds me of Lock Stock; "They'll hang us from the ring ropes, if they think it's rigged!" Luckily UFC uses a cage :1orglaugh

His agency is run by Ronaldo the Brazilian soccer player and his sponsors are Brazilian. It is Nike Brazil and Burger king from Brazil. Less likely to happen in my opinion.

Wow! He just signed a ten fight deal. He is going to get the shit sued out of him...

This is what I saw on before the fight, its pretty fucked. And then watching the fight I just felt like he wasn't trying to win.

Nothing against the other guy, he knocked Silva the fuck out.

Yeah, because he has never used those same silly tactics before... Just like Dana White said, if Silva would have won after doing all that silly shit, everyone would be talking about how much of a genius he is.

You have something to back that up? I couldn't find anything anywhere suggesting anyone was investigating anything about that fight.


Yeah because some people just can't grasp sarcasm. Funny though how you ignored the very opening of that video when he was being sarcastic about being scared of what GSP said.


The fact is, he played those silly little games one too many times and paid the price. Nothing more.

And one very easy example of many that he didn't throw the fight: if that crescent kick would have landed, I'm pretty sure Weidman would have been lights out. UFC isn't wrestling, they don't spend countless hours choreographing knockout blows/kicks and submissions that could very easily injure you for life...

Man, there are far too many conspiracy theorists these days...
