feel free to add your own write-ins...


But for me.. it's something of these...

-Bisping taking a serious beating and not quitting
-Silva maybe being the first fighter to overtly refuse to finish a fight when he has a hurt opponent
-Perhaps the most egregious example yet of the flaws of the 10 point must system
-A good portion of the English crowd booing Michael Bisping in a win
-Anderson Silva showing yet again that he truly marches to the beat of his own drum
 
bisping beat the greatest of all time..
 
Silva getting rocked and decked by Count Tickly-Fists = Chin is done & over with.

He had a great run, time to hang em up.
 
weidman took silva's chin and career with a left hook
 
anderson has been done for awhile, and just really doesn't seem to care.
 
andy was clearly the better fighter and clearly lost imo
 
Bisping is a tough, tough guy. Physically & mentally.
 
Anderson's still fast, chin isn't as good as it use to be, Michael can take a hell of a beating, michael did enough to win the fight, and Michael was saved by the bell.
 
Anderson Silva should retire. He isn't as light on the feet as he used to be.

Bisping got lucky he managed to have enough points in the judges eyes to get a decision.

Bisping will probably get a title shot after the next title shot

Bisping will get crushed easily in the title fight

The judging score system still sucks

Herb Dean should retire
 
Anderson doesn't work enough in the cage. Relies too much on the sniper shit he used to be able to pull on everyone.
 
My Takeaways

-Anderson Silva is indeed 40 years old and showed he doesn't have what it takes to win the title. Silva would have waxed Bisping 5 years ago but his reactions and timing is just not what it is.

-Fightpass is not even remotely close to being an alternative to cable/satellite.
 
Even at 40 Anderson is better than bisping but he still clowns, plays mind games and flat out fights stupid.
Bisping has solid standup
 
Silva really wanted to give us a movie style finish but Bisping wasn't giving him the opportunity eating up much of the time.

Whenever Silva decided to get aggressive, Bisping ran like bees were chasing him.
 
my biggest takeaway from this event was chinese...
salt and pepper king prawn..
 
Anderson's fight IQ has gone down the shitter.
 
that bisping got his ass kicked but anderson clowns around too much
