Just wanna know:

1) Do you think Anderson is well and truly past his prime / not a contender for the title ? I know he was robbed vs Bisping but still... I didn't even expect it to be close

2) Were you impressed with Khabib ? The man is 23-0.
 
Silva doesn´t deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with Khabib.

You missed the fight, yet you claim Anderson was robbed...
 
Yes, Silva is definitely past his prime. He should avoid Rockhold, Weidman, Jacare, Romero, even Belfort. The Belfort fight might be money in Brazil, so I guess it could still be worth it. Other than that, superfights. Shogun, Machida, GSP, Rampage if he comes back after Bellator

edit: also: Conor
 
Silva is definitely not the same, but I believe he can smarten up and use what he has to his best advantage. this fight showed that Silva can still throw precise, devastating gamechangers at any point during a fight. there isn't a single fighter he can't knock out in his division. But Silva needs to be smart now. Clowning for counters while giving all the advantages to your opponent does not work on 41 year old Silva. He is not that fast anymore. But Silva's fight IQ is still big, ANY mistake can mean the end of the fight because he is so good on capitalizing. We just saw that tonight when Bisping got distracted by a second, he KTFO of bisping. I still have high hopes man. But I hope he fights pretty soon to get that stream of wins rolling, with better gameplan.
 
Ya, I just saw the highlights.... He's just not his old (or 'young') self. =(
 
Obvious troll is obvious.

That wasn't Khabib that was Khasbulaev.
 
What is with these threads tonight. Did all of sherdog get kneed in the head too?
