Anderson Silva was never better than this

[Asahi]

Silva had all the chances in the world show his critics wrong in this fight. sadly he failed misserably, again!

Just the fact he was getting utboxed for most part of the fight and almost KO'd by ((Bisping)) in the process proves it once and for all. A showman with skills (propped up by steroids) is not enough to be considered GOAT.

Sorry AS fans, but truth hurts.

 

[TheRealWill]

Yeah, I agree. His entire career should be judged based on his last couple fighters. Who cares what he did before that.

You are makng a fool out of yourself with this. Stop it.

 

[sidecheckkick]

You're right TS he's clearly in his prime at age 41 coming off a year long layoff and a broken in half leg injury

 

[Sparkie]

he is a total can

Still 99% of his fans say they where fluke losses, hesplain, please!

He has clearly declined. He doesn't have the confidence, speed, power, precision, or reflexes that he used to.

 

[Asahi]

He has clearly declined.

Declined or just much better competition?

Declined or just much better competition?

Yeah, he has declined. His movement and execution are way different.

 

[Scheme]

He's facing better competition and the game has evolved past him. Also no more Brazilian medicine.

Those are just blind nuthuggers. Lol. The leg break was kind of flukey buy he was nearly KO'd in the first Rd and likely would have lost anyways.

He is definitely in the top 5-7 fighters of all time. I'd say Jones n GSP r ahead because they r more complete fighters.... He should probably hang it up soon though before he damages his legacy even more....like datch pudgy Hussian guy.

Shut up.

Slow and old Silva is slow and old.

His weakness was wrestling, then and now. If he fought Romero, Wiedman or Rockhold throughout his career he would lose to those guys more often than not.

The fact that Bisping was dropping him is the same as a undersized welterweight Nick Diaz going through a 5 round kick boxing match with him unscathed - he's 40.

 

[Defeat Unknown]

I think he no longer has the mental edge over his opponents and that plays a huge role in the outcome of his most recent fights.

Bisping didn't freeze in front of Andy like so many opponents had in the past.

You must be confused. He fought Bisping.

 

[Left Hook Lacy]

I certainly wouldve liked to see him against more strikers. He did beat Vitor and Hendo, though.

 

[Torrox]

Anderson Silva looked very good considering his mileage and injuries.

If you can't tell the difference, maybe you spend more time watching & listening, instead of starting threads with grandiose claims.

He got dropped and outboxed by Bisping, so whos confused here!
