UFC 162: Silva vs Weidman - Page 15

this is pretty bad way to go:


and none of these videos are championship fights for the biggest fight organization in the world

well before this fight he was still talking about superfights -- but how can he go there against jones now ;ss

what a disappointment ... go rematch i bet it wont last longer than 2 rounds and silva will KO him
however if they go for a supermatch with jones or GSP if silva does something shitty like that they will destroy him

LOL

Ok so if they book a rematch, what odds do you guys think its reasonable?
I think Silva will open around -450 after seeing what Weidman could do to him on the ground.
Friend on mine thinks its gonna be close to even odds.

Look at Anderson's feet position when Weidman barely touches his chin. He's standing square in front of him instead of in a striking stance. He basically forgot or just miscalculated his steps and assumed he wouldn't get chased any further.

Great fight by Weidman. I don't know why people make this a fluke win or a discussion about antics on one hand and getting lucky on the other.
Weidman dominated Round 1 from the beginning but the leg lock attempt was a bit too much old school grappling (questionable move from dominant position) and let him lose a decent position, giving Anderson a comeback chance for the round. Silva became more and more dangerous at the end of the round and I felt Weidman getting in serious danger. All in all I would give that round 10/9 to Weidman, but it was getting close.
In Round 5 Anderson seemed to be able to keep it standing and Weidman struggled to handle Anderson's style, if he would want to stand and trade, he would have to come up with something to fight back. Anderson was in his comfort zone and it looked as if Weidman was as mesmerized and might fall victim á la Okami/Forrest and many others. Somehow Weidman came up with this beautiful combination and very unpredictable strikes. Anderson is so used to a certain reaction by his opponents, but those punches were extremely unorthodox and Weidman caught him with a devestating one. If you look at the .gif, there is basically no way you would predict that kind of striking combination, it's weird and counterintuitive.

I think Weidman has just better hands than most people give him credit for, his movement and technic is nowhere near a Anderson Silva's... But he is effective and is constantly improving and after Uriah Hall, Mark Munoz and now the ex Champion, one has to acknowledge that Weidman has a pretty decent stand up game.

Now I'm just being paranoid but my fishy suspicions have been restored. Skip to 5:00 for immediate weirdness.

Well what I'll say is that Anderson definitely is the worst at hiding a conspiracy if there ever was one here. Guy seriously should have STFU'ed several comments earlier in his speech after his loss w/ rogan

I felt a bit robbed out of my time after the main event, if i were at a front row seat for 2k$ i would be really really mad tbh

silva definitely wins weirdest champ of all time award

what did he say here???

that disrespectful piece of shit

Man Silva seems fuckn hilarious.

Looking forward to all the glorious shoops, Silva face has potential.

A lot of people are so results orientated and retarded.

Silva has reasons for dropping his hands. He is a counter striker, and him dropping his hands eggs people in to trying to hit him so he can do what he does best. He's done it against several of the best fighters in the world and clowned them. He is the goat, and he accomplished much of that by fighting that way. Also having his hands really low helps him with his TDD, a LOT.

Silva's antics were designed to make Weidman try to strike with him instead of try to take him down, and it worked. Weidman just did an amazing job and staying composed and firing off good combos and moving in and out so Silva couldn't counter him.

Also LOL at it looking fishy, Silva's eyes roll into the back of his head. Yea, I'm sure he purposefully got a concussion. Ridiculous.

Weidman won every second of that fight pretty much. Silva landed like 2 leg kicks total in that fight. Weidman dodged a lot of his punches, and landed a lot of big shots other than the KO shot.

Weidman dominated that fight. It was just not some lucky punch that was only due to Silva showboating.



Weidman dodging all of Silva's strikes. Silva was clearly frustrated. He couldn't land shit. Also notice Weidman has HIS hands down.

Also I don't have any gifs of it but Weidman landed some really big GnP shots in the first round. He isn't Chael, dude hits hard.

Godly Weidman

Im sure that played a factor but the second fast off balance right hand jab in arow ( his last punch before the big left that ended it) made anderson think that was his left so he didnt think an overhand left was even possible so fast thats why he was so open. Was a pretty good combo
