But Anderson has some mental issues. No, I'm not saying he is crazy, everybody has their issues and insecurites. But in the case of Anderson, it is clearly jeopardizing his career and people around him. Ed Soares most be pissed from the money being lost in sponsorships.

Maybe it is a mid-life crysis? Bruised ego of not being the champion anymore? He seems to act immature and silly to see show he doesn't need anyone's approval, but then expects everyone to support him, because it is not his fault, it is the "corrupt system".
 
He's past his prime and needs to retire.

Is Normal.
 
I respect your opinion, but I honestly don't see it. I just see a 40 year old guy who still thinks he can be as cocky as he was during his prime.

Wake up, Andy, you ain't no Bruce Lee.
 
You're an armchair psychologist

You have to be cocky to fight.
 
his antics just boggle the mind at times

that was his fight to lose, and he gave it to bisping by letting it goto decision in london of all places

michael bisping aint losing in london, the ufc will make sure of that

I agree you've got to be confident to be a fighter, but that doesn't really mean you should be clowing around in the octagon when you're 40 years old.
 
I think Anderson doesn't know how to fight normal. He must hold in the strikes and kicks and wait for the perfect moment, when it makes sense in his world. It used to be his strenght, now it's his weakness, nothing to do about it.
 
NO! I DON'T WANT TO AND YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!

DON'T TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE! YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME!

The desk don't take nothin' from nobody no how.
 
Has no one seen his fights with Cote, Maia, and Leites?! Haha, good grief.

He didn't look that much different from normal. I thought he'd win but I wasn't surprised when it was competitive. Yes, he's older, but styles make fights. Bisping isn't as skill and power lacking as most people believe.

Definition of mental DISORDER aka "Crazy".
EDIT: i am not saying I agree or disagee but if you think his mental issues are causing him problems on the job and at home you are saying he is crazy.
 
Well you're probably right. His biggest problem is mental and he seems very insecure.
 
There is a brazilian song whose lyrics I can relate to Andeerson, it goes like this:

How many chances I wasted
Because what I wanted the most
Was to prove to everybody
That I didn't need to prove anything to anyone
 
He's always had a huge ego and was never as humble as he would like people to think. He probably has a hard time coming to grips that he isn't the invinsible myth anymore.
 
Call me an armchair Sherdogger, but I think Anderson is old. Would not bang
