Are you still interested in seeing Anderson Silva fighting?

[Paynebringer]

I'd rather watch the real thing than wanna be knock offs like Conor McGregor try to imitate his counter punching and shimmy & move style.

 

[J0N0]

I feel the same way the other way though, anyone that scored the 4th round for bisping should stick to point karate and tkd tournaments.

Bro, Silva threw literally nothing until the last 30 seconds of rd4, and even then it was nothing significant. Re-watch it, there is absolutely no argument to be made that Silva could possibly have won that round. Bisping looked messed-up still, but Silva doesn't get credit from what he did rd3 carried over, he did nothing.

 

[spin]

No.

He had his day

 

[Akabignasty]

Only if he keeps losing.

 

[Dice City]

yeah even at this stage of his career he's more exciting than 60% of the rest of the UFC

 

[Buff]

Yes.

I'm on the wagon until the wheels fall off.

 

[basedgodfedor]

Yeah why not

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

At this point - probably not. He just does not look the same, doesn't seem to take a punch as well.

That said - there were spots in the bisping fight that showed us glimpses of how good and creative he was in his prime.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

yes, but only against guys his age please.

 

[Luminaire]

Sure, I'll watch until he gets brutally KO'd again. Then I'll probably hope he hangs it up.

The Bisping fight proved that there really is no hope for vintage highlight Silva to return.

 

[IMSAYIN]

Not even a little bit. The legacy diminishes with every fight. Plus, his being caught cheating. It's the age old very sad story of combat sports.

In team sports an older guy can still perform very highly with help from his team mates. One on one, age always shows itself eventually, and there's nobody to hide behind.

Far too few guys have ever walked away on top. And way too many hung on for too long.

 

[soulsstealer]

Ya some weird shit always happens nowdays

 

[tnsinga]

Yeah I am, just hopefully he fights with a little more urgency

 

[Double Black Belt]

What kind of Question is that, every fight he's in something entertaining happens, last minute triangles, knockouts, failed spinning back fists, legs snapping in half, crazy front kicks, and saved by the bell flying knee knockouts! Come on TS this is the entertainment business, don't be such a whiner.

 

[MMASpeculator]

Always entertaining. Were you not entertained during the Bisping fight?

 

[The lord of bones]

Anderson should fight Fedor and put an end to this Fedor is the GOAT nonsense, it's not like he hasn't been slept by a middleweight before

 

[Morphumax]

Even when he loses, he's given us some of the most memorable moments in the sport's history.

I'll gladly watch until he hangs it up.

 

[Money509]

Yea hes still fun to watch. He beat the shit out of bisping even though bisping "won". They should have him fight mousasi should be fun.

 

[jitzmonkey]

I'm interested in seeing him fight. That BS from his last one, though... not so much.

 

[tasticles]

well did you not see him beat the shit out of bisping. that was a sham decision. He is still a very good fighter, he wont beat rockhold, weidman, jacare, romero and Kennedy but he is till a top level fighter certainly worthy of fighting in the ufc against top 10.

Kennedy isn't that good dude. I give a way past it Silva a decent chance against him.
