Strange fight. If you look at them you would think Silva won but i think Bisping did more. Silva is my favorite fighter but i think Bisping won.

Michael got his ass completely whooped during parts of that fight. Scraped to a 3-2 win though. Even after pretty much getting knocked out at the end of the 3rd.

Silva needs to take his fights more seriously or hang the gloves up. Two of his last three losses he could have won if he had been more serious.

Why do you guys think that Chuck crashed and burned so hard? Did he age overnight? Did MMA suprass him overnight? Did he get punch drunk? All of the above?

Click to expand...

I think his age and that knockout he suffered by Rampage (08 I believe?) did him in. Rampage knocks him dead and then bounces his head off of the canvas for several shots. He went to sleep and was never the same guy after that.

Then he goes against Rashad after another loss and mediocre decision win (IIRC) and gets knocked dead all over again. Brutal last few fights for a legend like him...

When was the V Silva fight? Was that before or after Rampage? He won, but it was so sloppy and neither one of them looked like themselves.

His chin definitely declined after that Rampage fight. I remember hearing Chuck talk about it. He blamed a lot of his struggle on his own stubbornness to keep fighting, and getting caught when going after guys. I don't remember who it was, but maybe his last fight, he's backing the guy up after breaking his arm with a kick, then one punch knocks him out. He just couldn't maintain the aggressiveness once his chin went *poof*.

Now that I watch it again, I think that was less about being punch drunk and more about running right into a perfectly timed hook. That would have put anybody down. Chuck was kicking his ass and just got sloppy.

Diaz & McGregor just squared off..looked like Nate's fist MAY have touched Conor's face & then Conor proceeded to full on closed fist punch Nate's hand.

Edit: can't get the gif to work but Nate was rubbing & massaging his hand afterwards. Surely to God it isn't broken
