Does DHK holding the fence put a stain on his W ?

[Raylan]

Silva did it first but not that extent. That was some Aldo vs Mendes level cagegrabbing.

 

[fortheo]

gtfo, silva did it too. this thread put's a stain on a cool ko.

 

[iThrillhouse]

Both were grabbing fences...don't mean shit

It didn't change the fight, but it does show the hypocrisy of grappling fans. They always harp on strikers for grabbing the fence to prevent TDs, but never complain about grapplers doing it. When wrestlers are getting outwrestled, they grab the fence as much as anybody. It's just instinct to use every advantage you can.

I don't think so. Silva held the fence twice and it was while the two of them actually still had gas left. It was a great fight, the cage holds cancel each other out.

 

[orangecuse]

Did you notice Erick holding it a couple of times earlier. Maybe Dong would've KTFO him earlier if he didn't blatantly do that.

 

[cabear]

Silva held on for dear life first.

 

[Substance Abuse]

Silva grabbed the cage too. Who cares?

Joe Silva doesn't!

 

[Uncommon Valor]

Reminds me of Aldo/Mendez.

 

[IThinkNot]

You do realize Kim was deep on a takedown more than twice where Silva grabbed the fence to prevent getting dumped? Troll thread, nothing to see here.

this...and the KO happened in the 2nd round.

so no.

it doesnt stain the win

DHK fought through his exhaustion and taking damage and managed to get a knockout

thats impressive

hope he gets a bonus!

 

[PunchParty]

like everyone else noticed but you ts that silva already did it!

 

[UL]

No

Because he took an arrow to the balls first and silva swarmed him and he still made it out

Not at all. People aren't upset because Silva had grabbed the fence several times before Dong had. It would be hypocritical to fault either one if you didn't fault both.

 

[Mga223]

Karma for silva doing it to.

 

[illegalnature]

Hell no lol Nobody will even be thinking about that it's not like you're gonna ask somebody if they remember the DHK vs. Erick Silva fight and they are like oh yea where he grabbed the fence that time?

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

Because the outcome could have been different had he not

Great KO but still a bit of cheating IMHO

Thanks for being so honest.

 

[BubbaH]

Does Erick Silva's fence grabbing put a stain on his loss? They both grabbed fence. The main difference is that the guy without the hype train won so suddenly it becomes a big issue.

 

[mkt]

When Aldo grabbed the fence to prevent a TD against Mendes, the consensus here seemed to be "no big deal."

Maybe only Brazilians are allowed to grab?

 

[Pengu]

Silva held the fence like a few times as well

 

[Spoken]

Silva would have been on the ground in the beginning of the second. He held the cage first.

grab for a grab.
