News Anderson Silva Plans to Continue MMA Career “Losing not due to age but technical mistakes”

[imbossing]

Finally we will see mousasi Vs Silva

 

[DRTP91]

I thought he looked good compared to the likes of Liddell, shogun, etc...

 

[SalvadorAllende]

My guess is One FC but Coker will be interested for sure.

 

[Mr Joyboy]

There is great honour in CTE

 

[JosephTessaro]

i thought he looked pretty good against uriah until he tried to bulllrush him when uriah wouldnt engage at all

I agree. He was moving well, fainting and looking awesome up until he got smoked.

He needs to retire.

 

[MMAart]

My guess is One FC but Coker will be interested for sure.

Maybe.

 

[glavinator]

In his defense he makes a great point...

If he was more patient and played his game more, confused Hall and been a little more dynamic and precise he was on his way to a decision.

Hall didn't do shit but capitalize on a aggressive mistake.

Yeah but he will continue to make similar mistakes in the future which will cost him the fight. Its done. He won't ever be able to put it all together again, on fight night. He might beat a scattered bum here and there but anyone of any substance will find hole and capitalize

 

[The Rivv]

Seems like his career status matters more to you than to him.

Some people don't care about their record, they enjoy the competition and participation. It's what they enjoy doing.

I understand that so why doesn’t he just compete in exhibition bouts, or in a pure sport like kickboxing or submission grappling? I don’t understand why he would continue when he has/had the title of the Greatest of all Time.

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

They both cheated and Chaels levels weren’t that high, that’s a myth.

 

[TimeToTrain]

Anderson versus Platinum Perry

 

[cheesus]

I don't have a problem with him fighting but if he wants to continue why doesn't he just take easier fights ? Go crush some bums in KOTC or something, he shouldn't be in any major promotion fighting prospects or gatekeepers.

 

[cheesus]

kinda agree.. definitely getting older and ont fighting the same but he gassed himself out pretty hard going after Hall at first and Hall being gunshy was able to reserve most of his gas tank and finish Anderson. Really wasnt even close until Anderson gassed.

Wasn't close ? It was a 5 round fight where Anderson won the first two, Hall won the 3rd when he decided to turn up the heat and then finished him in the 4th. Even if it went to a decision, Anderson wasn't like to win it.

 

[Dorkman]

Just get him in touch with Vitor Belforts nutritionist, and bio chemist and he'll be good as new.

 

[Pakman]

Finally we will get Anderson vs Moose.

jk Coker doesn't want him. Bare Knuckle isn't where he should go either.

He should go to Rizin and hope that Rizin gives him some fights vs guys more his age.

 

[Doughie99]

My guess is One FC but Coker will be interested for sure.

My guess if he goes to ONE FC.....his physique might just .....magically improve a lot. Just a hunch.

 

[austinblair]

he's going to BJ penn his career

Already has..... could’ve retired before the Weidman fight and been the goat.

 

[TR1]

What Anderson should be doing is training the next gen of fighters.

 

[613MMAfan]

Why doesn't anderson stick to the basics and work his long piston jab and long straight punches instead of bull rushing guys throwing wild punches or doing a bunch of flashy stuff?

His chin is also glass now, the first right hand uriah hurt him with was a complete arm punch , he was off balance with one foot on the ground.

 

[itrainufcbro]

Is he broke or something?

He will be if he retires. Big house in so cal. 5 kids.

 

[TGArthur]

Reminds me a bit of this
