Anderson Silva is just a boring fighter. You can blame it on his opponent who is badly outmatched but Silva could EASILY do more than he is.
I kind of agree. At first I thought it was funny, and all the opponent's fault, but now he's becoming more like Floyd. Content with doing just a bit more than his opponent. Silva could take this guy out no problem if he wanted to, he's overmatched.
tbh, it's not like Silva's doing his best to finish the fight. His last three title defenses have been horrendous fights.
I agree, they aren't much better, but at least they try and fucking take the other guy down. The BJJ guys that take every opportunity to roll onto their back make me intensely angry, it's fucking pathetic and annoying. Honestly though, I'm not a Silva fan now, he's not much better, he's been incredibly boring for his last few fights. Just take this guy out FFS, he has no chance.
Exactly, and it's becoming more and more common with him. He may be great, but who's gonna want to pay to see him fight when he pulls this shit every time out? TFK
im sorry all the silva fans out there. but the last round he just ran and threw ZERO anything with maia doing the chasing.
Exactly, no-one. Let's start a Silva boycott, what a waste of talent, not unlike Floyd actually. I would seriously rather watch GSP's turbo takedowns than this fucking shit. I slagged off Maia something fierce, but now I think Silva is just as bad. Fair play to Maia, he's actually throwing some punches and trying to fight now, even if there are some faggoty rolls onto the back thrown in for good measure.
Maia started off being the pathetic one, rolling onto his back, taking no chances at all, but by the end to be honest it was Silva who seemed more pathetic. The champ needs to fight too, a bit of clowning I thought was appropriate given Maia's style, but then he ended up doing FUCK all for the last 3 rounds. I mean wtf. He's very talented, but I honestly have no desire to see Silva again. I'd honestly rather watch GSP. And you know what, I previously said he was far too small, but I think I would be inclined to pick GSP over Silva.
I agree, Floyd might be a boring pot shot specialist, but even he isn't quite that boring, doing FUCK all for entire rounds.
He said he didn't know what got into him, and that he was surprised by some of Maia's punches, and that he'll do better next time :: Idiot. He said the same thing after his other pathetic performance over the other pure BJJ guy.
I don't know what got into me, it was ring rust combined with other stuff, I'm sorry guys. Maiai surprised me with some of his punches.
