sayWORD? Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 ^^exactly cracked. ive followed silva since pride, ive got mad respect for what he can do in the ring. and i dont think anyone, even a fourth grade kid, needed silva to knock maia out to be able to distinguish the winner. like you said, the fight was over in the first couple rounds as far as most people are concerned. i think his antics were less about strategy, and more about silva being generally bored and dissatisfied with his recent opponents. the quality of opponents is partly dana whites fault, as his contract policies are less than desirable for many talented fighters, who seek out less constricting deals elsewhere. plus white has a history of shortchanging talent even when it has proven itself (dan henderson everybody?). bottom line: silva outclassed dude in every way but class itself. i mean i would understand if it was a true grudge match between two fighters with a history of hating each other. maybe a little strutting in the ring would be humorous, even entertaining. but this is seemingly becoming a habit with anderson, and im not fond of it. one thing is for sure, if the ufc continues to allow this bullshit to be accepted, frat dudes with affliction t-shirts wont be the worst thing about mma for long.

shake&bake Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 word! silva has cleaned out his division and stepped on toes in light heavy. they give him maia? there is no one else but vitor. id pay to see that shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twonpoo Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 but in a match against another Brazilian from another school who might have a history of whatever prior, he embarrassed Maia for 5 rounds not allowing him to do anything, that's sorta my point, even without abusing him like the first 3.5 , he still was a spider with his prey unable to do shit in his web. He embarrassed his opponent. Broke his nose and made him dance around bleeding with closed up eyes. Dude is probably mentally scarred now. LOL and what do you mean you don't buy the" 5 rounds of material" are you kidding? GSP was the only other UFC fighter to fly out to Dubai, you think that was a coincidence? Dubai isn;t Vegas, or Portland where you just happen to fly in and out for a fight. GSP is in study mode, if you don't get that, then I really shouldn't bother explaining professional fight strategies against other title holding opponents with you. lol.

Cracked Ass Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 How about Florian-Edgar. Then Penn can rematch the winner. I wanna be Joe Silva. I'd have some fun with that shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twonpoo Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 i think Penn deserves a rematch. he had the title for a long time, he deserves it, but unless he gets his shit str8, Edgar is going to ride that wave a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't listen at all. Silva destroys Maia in 1 round and does it without using any of his favorite techniques. Then GSP has nothing relevant to study.

twonpoo Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 but you dont get it. his agression wasnt turned on on purpose, like other fights. His M.O. was to embarrass. anyways you didnt understand GSP watching,so no more talk here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shake&bake Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 he can study all he wants. his jaw is suspect and silvas stiking is pin point. he'll try and stand up long enough to set up his shot and ride out his wrestiing like the last 3 of his fights. we all see how that work out for maia.lololololololoollolololo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayWORD? Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 dont even compare maia's wrestling to george's. he will have his hands full though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shake&bake Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 no doubt! george has the best wresting in the ufc hands down. im just saying silvas stand up make anyone one demensional. he has to exchange punches to get off his shot. eating a couple shots before gets within shooting distance. thats all im saying.

His M.O. was to embarrass. anyways you didnt understand GSP watching,so no more talk here. No, you still don't get what I'm saying, or even what I know, so I'll start over. 1. GSP is in study mode: Agreed. Any smart fighter studies his next opponent's fights. 2. Silva is smart: Agreed. He doesn't want to show GSP his A-game. 3. Silva doesn't need his A-game to beat Maia: Agreed. 4. Silva should dance around for five rounds instead of finishing Maia: DISAGREE. My point is, Silva could have destroyed Maia in one round with his B-game. That way he wins the fight, keeps GSP in the dark about his A-game, and keeps the respect of fans who think like I do. But Silva is the 800-pound gorilla who doesn't give a fuck what I think, so he did it his way. Which won him the fight and gave GSP nothing to study. I just don't like his style even if he accomplished those two objectives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4horsemen Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 i will stick with my guns and say silva is a straight crack head!!! Can't wait for the next silva fight vs chael, ethier he kills sonnan in the first round or does his antics for five rounds again. And if he gives everyone that shitty display of horseshit the prez is going to kick him to the curve!!! And for the record silva maia comes from a different parts of brazil so each one has different morals and ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twonpoo Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 "prez"? "curve"?
