Who takes that?
Who takes that?
Silva got dropped Sonnen and knocked out cold by Weidman, both of whom are wrestlers.
A real, hard hitting striker at a higher weight class would destroy him.
Silva was in his primeThat's why I said "prime"
That's why I said "prime Anderson"
You know damn well Sonnen and Weidman never fought a prime Anderson. Prime Anderson permanently rearranged Rich Franklin's face and laughed at Forrest Griffin's punches. Prime Anderson would jump at you with a flying knee from 8 feet away, and land it on your chin. He'd leap at you and leg kick you with his REAR leg. He'd uppercut you with a lead elbow or front kick you in the mouth.
I think a lot of you guys are forgetting how good Anderson was
Silva was in his prime
So Anderson was no longer in his prime after a year between the Forrest and Sonnen fights? Convenient
This and he was exceptional strong in the mental aspect. AJ would have walked in like a lost puppy and get Forrest like schooled before quitting.
