Proves his greatness above all others. I've never seen a guy do this so often and get away with it relatively unscathed. Granted Chris made him pay, most of the time he still dominates.

It's his legacy, let him clown if wants. But I'd still watch him over any other fighter ten fold. Still the GOAT in my eyes and most dynamic fighter of all time. It's not that hard to acknowledge that (the dynamic part).

It'll be a lonely day when he finally hangs it up. I know he lost on points but we know who dished out more effective damage overall.
 
he was clipped a lot. I have to say though this fight was amazing. once we stop being caught up in the BS we'll learn to appreciate it
 
Anderson seems to fight for the fans at this point, I don't think he cared that much about point fighting. He pretty much took it easy on Bisping the last 2 rounds after finishing him in the 3rd and decided to drop his hands and encourage bisping to land some shots while he tried to land some fancy spinning stuff- which is what everybody wants to see. It's too bad cause he could have finished it multiple times but thought it was obvious that he was messing around and the vast majority of bispings strikes didn't really do anything lol Anderson turned it on whenever he wanted to

I think he underestimated the judges and hometown advantage frankly. Sure bisping outlanded him with some lame shit that Andy blocked mostly (aside from dropping him in the 2nd which was shocking) but Anderson did an overwhelming amount of damage and it was clear that he was putting on a show thinking he had already won

I'm equally as mad at Anderson as the judges tbh. Normally I wouldn't care but being that this fucks up andersons title shot, I'm quite disappointed. Bisping did fight a great gameplan though but Anderson could have definitely done more to win had he felt like it and that became quite obvious during the later rounds
 
And when he doesn't clown, he looks even worse (see the second Weidman fight).
 
Anderson could still beat everyone in the MW division and they know it.
 
Hilarious that his fans still use the excuse that he is "clowning around"
 
stfu he's trying 100% to win. and guess what, it wasn't even close to enough to beat bisping.

Breaking your shin is tantamount to a poor performance? Smh. Remember the Vitor fight in the midst of his TRT intake?

Silva looked dead serious and how did that turn out?
 
Bisping did knock him down twice though. A top guy with power puts him out. Silva still has skill, no doubt. But he better figure out a way to fight that isn't built around countering misses caused by clowning. That's not going to work any longer. If he would adjust he could still be pretty dangerous.
 
Hahahaha you guys are delusional. Hes resorting to these tactics cos he cant go 5 rounds of constant action,and is fighting in spurts. Old man,they are on to ya
 
You can debate his GOAT status but who are we kidding to believe that there is a more dynamic fighter than him ever.
 
Literally dropped by Bisping. Time to retire.

Sadly, the chin always seem to be the first to go. Or is it the reflex? As long as he keeps it standing with less clowning against anyone at MW he has a great chance to win. Even now.

Tell that to Gus. He's not even the best striker in his division. LOL'd at the Cocaine part.
