Anderson Silva reminisce on win against Chael Sonnen at UFC 117

[sportkillergreg]

Crazy how Anderson Silva destroyed the greatest doper in MMA 2X. Chael Sonnen is the only man in MMA to have tested positive for steroids, hGH and EPO, combined.

Chael has 3 10-8 rounds against anderson and won 5 rounds against anderson total. Anderson only won 2 against Chael. Chael destroyed and exposed Anderson. Still undefeated and undisputed

Rounds are fairly useless. MMA is a simulated deathmatch and Anderson simulated Chael's death 2X. The 10-point system is flawed and will be extinct in the next decades. All facts

Still hasn't learned any English.

What? I remember Anderson losing. 1 & 1!!

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

Awesome. I'm getting this tattooed:

in an inferior situation with wisdom and experience hangs the apparent struggle already won mind to lead to better

that's an Anderson Ortiz quote yea?

The point system is a corruption of the original spirit of the sport.

The GSP point-counting BS is complete nonsense and anti-MMA.

Cleared by USADA. Everyone is on steroids, including your favorite fighters.

GOATs don’t tap to strikes.

ref must of had bet on that late stoppage

 

[boss429]

They were both equally juiced so it was an even playing field. Silva wouldn't have won if he wasn't on steroids.

I could be wrong but as I recall Anderson passed his tests while Chael posted what at the time was the highest T:E Ratio ever recorded in the UFC. But yeah, you're probably right. I mean he did start testing positive after suffering a brutal injury at 40 years of age but I'm sure that was just a coincidence and he was a life long users despite never failing a test as a champion during the time when basically only fighters involved in title fights were consistently tested.

 

[MMA Maine-iac]

I don't care if both were taking enough roids to bring Rich Piana back from the dead, that was an amazing fight. Chael was a good villain. Anderson showed why he's one of the GOATs.

murrican test vs brazilian acai

clash of the titans..

miss those days..

"Sonnen" plays the first blow that left me knocked up standing, after that sonnen gives me a fall and stayed for three minutes sticking hard blows on the ground and pound.

Sounds like true love

Fight would have been a no contest if Sonnen won.

8 of Silva's 16 wins would have been a no contest had the opponent won...

 

[machidafan99]

What promise did he make to his master?

 

[BitFlip]

Did Sonnen tap though? I feel like that was more Sonnen losing than Anderson winning in a way. Let him have wristcontrol for a long time and then fake tapped to what looked like a pretty loose triangle.

Could have been fatigue, but more likely there is some self image problem. Or that he is afraid that the feeling of being champion would just leave him empty without something to strive for.

 

[Perrichet]

Ah the days Anderson fans called Sonnen all the names under the sun after he failed a drug test now it’s everyone on PED’s.

In a deathmatch there isn't a ref to stand you up every 5 minutes

 

[boingyman]

I still remember watching that fight. He really pulled a miracle with that sub, however that's what dominate champions do.

There’s no proof for many of those claims where as there is for Sonnen after he lost the first fight.

Hahahahahaha

They aren't claims. 8/16 tested positive for banned substances.
