if anyone has the time i suggest check out the movie (like water) its basically the 24/7 leading up to the fight but its more like 3 months before the fight and goes through the fight in the docu you will see that the silva injury was real i think fueled by being hugged and drugged around the ring for 5 rounds last time i think silva will have a nice showing ….< im no expert like those guys^^^^ lmao

Perfect example…Chael comes in roided for Anderson, steam rolls him, loses unexpectedly. Chael comes in unroided against Bisping, barely beats him (some could argue) practically gasses.

Huge difference. Testosterone depletes over the years, making you slower, weaker. If you are boosting levels of T that Chael was, you are faster, stronger, you feel 19 again. HUGE HUGE advantage versus a guy that can barely breath. You saw it in that fight, Anderson was slow, his reaction time was even slower…yet he still absorbed Chael’s so called ass whooping and submitted him.

320 strikes? Anderson looked like he came out of a sparring session…that wasn’t an ass whooping. Ass whooping involves cuts, gashes, broken bones…none of which Anderson received by Chael. If you want to look at this at a street fight angle, the way Chael does, that triangle could of killed Chael. Chaels “ass whooping” warranted an icepack or two at most.

Chael’s done this time around. Hard and fast unless Anderson toys with him, inflicting devastating but minimal damage over 3 or 4 rounds.

Inside, I am laughing at all of you who believe you were watching the real Anderson Silva in the cage last time. I’m also dying laughing at these reporters and analysts that say absolutely NOTHING about Sonnen’s testosterone-laden drug test having an impact on his performance. I believe the Anderson Silva rib explanation, but that’s mostly speculation. Due to patient confidentiality, we’ll never know, but when compared to his other performances, it is easy to see why I, among others, can believe that something was wrong with Silva. I’m just surprised no one else that was cageside acknowledged that Silva’s performance was lacking something they were accustomed to seeing. Either way, Sonnen has not done himself any favors by giving Silva the motivation to rip his head off.

Silva is’nt interested in moving up to the 205 pd class where he would get beaten by Jon Jones. Silva said himself that there is’nt any brazilian fighter now that can beat Jon Jones. Silva can’t beat Jones either and he knows this. The reason that Silva’s manager says that Silva would interested in a super fight with GPS is HUGE PAY DAY for that event,but mainly it’s because of Silva’s confidence that he would’nt loose the fight with GPS. GPS would’nt be able to Strike with Silva and would also be very cautious in going to the matt with Silva too for fear of being submitted by Silva’s long limbs.

@JoJo: I couldn’t agree more with you bro, you hit the nail in the head. As the UFC continues to become more mainstream we will be getting more of these supposed “experts” and crappy TV reports that make the sport look like the NFL. Sad…

I like both journalists, but they missed the mark here in my humble opinion. First of all, Anderson already cleared up at the press conference that this will NOT be his last fight (especially since with his sponsors and the fight being in Lost Wages he may earn up to $8 million for this fight alone)..secondly, no mention of Silva looking uncharacteristically off in the first fight, and thirdly, I’m sure Sonnen’s camp was thinking how in the hell can you hit a guy 300+ times and he doesn’t have a scratch? Of course they’re working on his elbows…
