Robin Black just lost credibility. Picked Bisping to beat Silva.

I think Anderson should have this. But with that said, I'm still interested in watching the video to see what he sees. His technical analysis can teach people a thing or two sometimes.

I just have a feeling about this fight. Realistically there should be no possible scenario where Bisping wins, but I feel he 'might'. Sounds strange, but Anderson is over the age of 40, coming off a long lay of, a broken leg and a lot of pressure… He might lose. Realistically, when you're saying this about one of the greatest fighters of all time, you gotta think its time to retire.

Exactly this... Anderson is a shell of his former self, 40 years old ffs... Dude would finish bisping with 2 rounds before the broken leg.

Still think andy wins though

No, it is that crazy. Not because it's completely unfathomable that Bisping will win, but when Black picks against Silva (which he has done EVERY SINGLE FIGHT for.. I dunno... 8 years?) it is definitely coming from a place of crazy, not a place of logic.

I distinctly recall a thread posted years ago listing all the sherdog "pro's picks" Silva's fights. Black picks against him literally every time. That's crazy.

And I guess it also dispels TS notion that Black somehow lost credibility for this one. Any credibility he might have had he lost long ago.

He said he was trolling when he always picked against Anderson LOL

Do you have any links to the videos of him predicting against Silva? I want to see for myself if he was actually serious or trolling.
 
I agree. It might be wishful thinking but Bisping wants this very badly and post USADA Silva is untested and has a grey beard.
 
3. No one credits him with anything
Because
4. No one has ever heard of him

Pretty much this. If not for this thread I wouldn't even know he exists, and chances are I'll forget it by tomorrow.
 
Bisping can win, but I wouldn't bet on it.
 
Silva's first fight which will be in line with random testing.
Could go anyway.
 
Anything is possible but the gap in talent is so high even with an ageing non viagra Spider there is a slim to nothing change that Bisping wins. I am confident we will get 100 threads asking for Anderson to get a title shot after he Neo kicks his way to victory.
 
Robin Black is a bright man, i also have Bisping actually... but i'm but as sure as Robin is

NO, i know in your mind he's still a dominant fighter but he's not like that anymore, Bisping will win

You are seriously the worst poster in here. Bisping is past it and he wasn't even that good in his "prime"

I happened to find his breakdown of Anderson vs. Forrest

Robin Black:
Let’s face it. Silva has looked mediocre in his last few fights, mentally weak, like he can’t handle the pressure of being considered the best. Forrest, on the other hand, is mentally strong and very, very committed. At 205 pounds, I’m seeing Forrest make Silva look really bad on the way to a Griffin unanimous decision
 
I don't buy that he was trolling in the past. I think he just wanted to be the guy that picked against the guy seen as the GOAT at was right, and therefore was smarter than everyone else. It just turned out that it never worked out for him.

I like him, btw, and think he is an excellent analyst, if not a little OTT at times.
