Yep great knock-out, and awful ref, should have been stopped five or six punches earlier.
Think Silva will destroy Weidman next week, really embarrass him. Can't wait for Rousey vs Tate either.

You seen the Bigfoot/Mark Hunt fight Kit?

I'll watch it over christmas for sure as it sounds epic.

Heard the shines been taken off it with a positive drugs test but nvm.

I think Weidman vs Silva II might not be as amazing as we hope. Like it'll be a steam rolling one way or the other.

Oh, and I've watched the 20 greatest knockouts vid. Some absolutely incredible ones on there - I think the most impressive is the wheel kick.

Does ANYONE get knocked out better than Matt 'The Law' Lindland?????????



Gone.



I watched this live and thought he was dead.

WHY did he want to bang against elite strikers?????? he was a wrestler.

I remember an early UFC where he actually knocked himself out going for a suplex.

Can't see Anderson ever coming back despite the nonsense dana talked. That is a career killing injury and he's 38.

Still, he will go down as the greatest most entertaining fighter ever.

[VR46]

Yep be hard to see him back in the cage properly before 18 months time with that sort of injury.

Have to see really, up to him. Was turning out to be a good rematch too. Not a nice way to end such a fantastic career on the back of the original loss.

Same old with Rousey, can't knock her Judo skills though, she has some power and technique for sure.

[Kit]

Did she win via armbar again??????

[VR46]

Of course, but this was the first time she had been taken past the first round, she was rocked with a couple of punches too. Just can't understand why Tate tried so often to take her down when her Judo is so good, should have just stood up kept her distance and traded punches, easy for me to say I know.

Like some men weighing the same weight at weigh in, by the time of the fight she looks a stone bulkier than all her opponenets.

Made sure I did'nt watch the replay of the Silva breakage.

Saw some photo's of it Sunday morning, and I was traumatised for the rest of the day!

UFC is running out of top names with GSP taking a time out, and Silva out for a long time, if not permanently.

[cutmymilk]

Yep shocking to potentially lose the 2 best fighters ever within months of each other.

I had a big bet on Silva too devastating! There are other big names coming though to fill that gap though. Someone can only dominate for so long. Weidman very lucky with the way these two fights have gone. 2 wins against Silva and both shady wins at that!

[megatron]

Was a sad moment. Can't really see him returning either.

First post for this thread for 2014, cannot wait for this, Anderson Silva v Nick Diaz, January 2015.

Man.. I'm really losing the stomach for mma and boxing. Just don't like seeing people batter each other senseless.

I'll try not to let the door hit me on the fanny on the way out.

[Kit]

Koppo?

You're going to miss Diaz vs Anderson Silva and Jon Jones and DC just brawled at a press conference. Are you really telling me you don't want to see the outcome of both?

[k0pp0]

Nope.. Just doesn't float my boat anymore. Think I'll just take up stitch craft or summat.

[VR46]

Cross Stitch you noob

When you realise how most of the blokes in the UFC would fight for nothing and how un-personal most of it is (they're quite often best of mates after the final bell). Hell half of them are even smiling while they're being hit.

Was it Rampage Jackson that said he only joined the UFC as it was the only legal way of fighting and he was fed up of being arrested for fighting in backyards?
