Anger clouds Judgement. Anyone ever have their eyes go red and you switch to autopilot?

Sonnen will be calm, cool and collected. Silva will be angry, crazy and un-focused. This will be good.

The first episode of UFC Prime time for Silva-Sonnen debuts this Saturday @ 7pm. Must see TV, it'll be on Fuel TV though, so some of you may have to wait until Sunday when it's on Youtube.

Just got done with the first episode of UFC Primetime for the Silva-Sonnen fight, it was pretty awesome. I'll post it on here tomorrow or later on tonight when i get home for anybody else who wants to see it. I believe the second episode is on Tuesday.

I honestly didn't like it, purely for the fact they kept harping on about Silva having a boo boo in the first fight.

It's an overplayed stat, seems like a lot of people are picking Anderson in the rematch because he's going to be 'fresh' and '100%'. Newsflash - he had a minor rib injury, not fucking cancer. He wasn't that dehabilitated in the first fight that there will be any major differnce in this, it doesn't work like that; see Mir vs Nog 1 & 2 for proof.

I don't care how hard you are, there is absolutely no chance he had BROKEN ribs going into a fight, not only would he of not got doctors clearance, he wouldn't of lasted the distance. I have watched "Like Water", and his ribs were legit injured, but the guy is such a fraud its hard to tell how damaging it was.

Thats my take anyway, I hate the slant they are selling the fight with. Is it so bad to admit you got yr ass handed to you in a fight? Not like I am gonna think less of him for it, I think hes a piece of shit now for the machismo fronting and not giving a guy his due.

Silva will be un-focused? Seriously? A professional fighter knows how to channel and control themselves. They know how to make sure their anger doesn't get the best of them. They know how to use it right. Silva can be pissed but he won't be out of control and crazy.

Dunno how I'm watching yet. I don't wanna pay $44.95 on PPV as it's too much and I already pay enough monthly for cable and especially when I also order every WWE PPV which are an additional $30 each.

Might use a free stream or go out to like a bar.

Lets see if Anderson's mouth is as big as it was last week when he has Sonnen sitting next to him.

Chael might have hypogonadism but its Anderson who has no balls.

Here's the press conference, it starts at around the 25:00 mark, even though it's only a presser it was still pretty awesome. Good shit.
