Anderson Silva And Machida

[Suzpect]

If 46 year old dan Henderson can get a TS after a win over hector lombard on the heels of a KO loss to Vitor/moose, AS or Lyoto have a solid chance. Doesn't take much to "earn" a title shot these days.

I'm sure the UFC has no problem with giving either guy a shot and happily make jacare vs camozzi 3 for the interim belt.

Only thing is MW div is so stacked right now with overdue contenders for the belt.

 

[dildos]

Nah they done their dues and had a great time along the way to success in their respective divisions.

 

[Suzpect]

He still got saved by the ref and bisping was out on the floor leaking blood defenseless. 100% that could have been stopped with no arguements.

Are we gonna act like bisking was paying attention to Anderson and not trying to get his mouthpiece from herb when he was sucker-kneed

 

[Davemeddlehed]

Anderson's finished. He looked like shit his past who knows how many bouts. Awful vs. DC. Just collecting a paycheck.

Lyoto might have a few more highlight KO's to dish out.

You expected a 39 year old veteran of a 19 year career, on less than 2 days notice, coming off of surgery, to do well against Daniel Cormier with a full camp?

I would say under the circumstances Anderson actually performed better than anyone expected him to.

Will we see the Former champs possiby fight for the title again? Or at least one more front kick ko?

Just glad seagal was strategically placed to break them up if they started a brawl, sensei bless.

His highlight reel against top ranked fighters at the time speaks for itself

Protect urself at all times. Rookie little kid mistake. No such thing as sucker punch in a fight.

 

[Epicness]

Silva didnt retire did he?

might as well have

 

[Epicness]

paper champ.

LOL

he KO'd the guy who stopped the guy who finished silva - twice. Keep reaching bud

 

[CerebralKnievel]

Bisping fought awfully well in the 4th for a guy who had just been KO'd, don't you think?

Definitely, but that doesn't change the fact that he leveled Bisping with a flying knee and sent him face-first to the mat. Epic fight.

Oh I'm not arguing that the fight couldn't be stopped there. I'm just saying if he was knocked out like so many people want to claim why did he come back and win the 4th round?

how can you call it epic when Bisping wasnt even paying attention to the fight and trying to get his mouthpiece back from herb

 

[yeguiza]

Teh fuck is seagal sitting on?

His ass

Bisping is a whinny little girl, it made the flying knee more epic. Bisping isnt exactly a clean fighter eirther, kneeing downed opponents.

By the time Machi da is off his BS suspension and puts meld in positron fire a title shot he'll be at least 40. He's my favorite fighter, but his entire style is made for a younger man's body. That said, Hendo made it to 47 so who knows

 

[Phillyz]

Silva could possibly fight for the title again. I don't think it's unrealistic at all. Bisping is champ and he had a very tough fight against Silva. He pretty much needs just one good TKO win and the UFC would probably give him the shot.

his last win was 2011 and is riding a 5 fight losing streak.. yet you think he's a fight away from a TS??

Alexander Gustafson got a titleshot coming off a TKO loss, Dan Henderson got a titleshot with only a one win streak, when there were clearly more deserving contenders. And again, Silva fought a very entertaining close fight against the current champ not all that long ago. He's the MW goat, of course they will give him a TS as soon as he gets just a little bit of momentum. The UFC makes the fights that sell, not necessarily who is most deserving.

His ass

Oh ok. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
