UFC 153: Silva vs. Bonnar

[Embrace Thou Maryse]

Glad Anderson (my fav fighter) picked up the win in impressive fashion. Definitely the best UFC fighter ever. GOAT? That's a tough one. Fedor went undefeated in PRIDE for a decade. That's tough to beat. Also agree with Deezy that Jon Fitch winning pleases me. One of the most underrated fighters in the sport and is perfect proof that Zuffa only puts on the title fights that'll make the most money.

Not everyone may agree with it but at the end of the day the UFC is a business, it has to make money and you cant sell a Fitch fight to most people, and you certainly could never sell Fitch as Champion to people. I've never even come close to buying a PPV because of Fitch, he's generally the toilet break because 99/100 you wont miss anything.

This fight with Bonnar is why Silva stays at Middleweight. Because at LHW, he tends to make it look almost TOO easy. Fucked up Irvin in their fight, Made Forrest look like a rank amature in their fight, evaded damn near every punch and made him run away after the fight, Actually made Bonnar look WORSE than Forrest by posting up against the cage for the entire 4 minutes of the fight.

The man just looks unstoppable at 205 pounds.

He does seem to do his best work at 205.

Because he has that speed advantage at 205. The guys are bigger so they are usually a lil slower than he is. Plus the guys he's fought at 205... aren't really the best fighters. Not the fastest fighters, but just rather large 205 fighters. If he were to fight an elite 205 pound fighter we would know better how he could legit do but at the end of the fight he said he won't be moving back up to 205 anymore so... looks like we won't ever know unless a 205 pounder drops weight. But then considering GSP wins against Condit he'll prob be dropping down to 170 to fight GSP.

But dang... Anderson is 37? That is crazy.
