nothing was fixed about that

you just saw a fighter who was better in every facet of the game dominate a lesser opponent

I agree. Silva came up in weight but was still a better and stronger striker and of course had the quicker speed. It all came down to this...Forrest is slow. Any other 185'er and yeah he'll probably overpower him. Not Anderson Silva. And let's not downplay the reputation of Silva. That doesn't help his opponents at all. I know if I was going to fight him, the two Rich Franklin fights would be playing in my head over and over!

Everyone that didn't pay for this crap say Yay!!!

anderson showed no regard for forrest's striking at all

that was one of the most incredible things i've ever seen in MMA

thats the 2nd time forrest has run off after being KO'd, that aint cool

I guarantee if he made it to the 2nd round, Forrest would try and take it to the ground. :hysterical:

I absolutely knew Anderson moving up meant nothing. The dude has the power for that division. I know next to nothing about MMA strategy, but I'm telling you the way to beat Silva is the lay on him and wear him out. If and when it's stood up, try and get him down again. I know Dan Henderson couldn't get it done...but he is definitely the one to do it.

Huh???????

:hysterical:Forrest is no chump. He is starting to sound a little punch drunk though.

I wouldn't be surprised to see this go to the judges.

Silva a 5:1 favorite.

Forrest is just like he said...a dog. Well, that dog better have some defense.

Anderson Silva by murder. 2nd round

Wow. Somebody better save this card.

Can Forrest give us a great one?

That's what the last two are for. They're both huge fights. And **** Philly, anyway. They don't deserve a great card.

Doesn't it sound like no matter what is going on, there is a constant BOO in the background. Damn, I hate that city.

Anyone else on Sopcast only have the small screen? You can maximize it to make it a bit bigger, but not full screen. That sucks . . . but I guess because it's streaming, it would look horrible in full screen mode.

Dana didn't think Fedor was a joke because he offered him all that money. Dana is crying and whining like a spoiled kid because he didn't get his way. Period.

and that is why rednecks shouldn't fly kites with Bud cans strapped to them.

:doh: Nice.

Hey, I'll fight online. I'm horrible, so what! Let's get it on!

Are you kidding me??? Jealous much???

Did you not lose your bowl game this past year? And why is a fellow Big Ten team fan making fun at another Big Ten team's record in bowls??? Oh, I know why...

What's your record against us? In the past 3 years, it's 1-2. In the past 5 years, it's 2-3. In the past 10 years, it's 4-6.

How many Big Ten Championships do you have? In the past 3 years, we have 2 alone and shared 1 with you. In the past 5 years, we have 2 alone and shared 2 with you. In the past 10 years, we have 2 alone and 3 shared. In the past 10 years, you have 2 titles...both shared with OSU.

Since 2002, we have been to 6 major bowl games...and yes we have gone 3-3, but it does include a National Championship. But that's a lot better than going to one major bowl game since 2002 and beating FSU team in 3 overtimes.

Our regular season record the past 5 years: 49-8

Yours: 41-17

Sorry guys. I have to back my team. Back to this great thread.

Your right. I'd bet they could be offered millions and turn it down. They are prideful people.

We'll see. If the UFC wants this to happen, it's gonna happen. Money is not an issue because the amount offered will be outrageous. They'll offer a crazy amount that neither can resist. It won't be Silva or Machido saying no because either side saying no means bad rep. This fight is gonna happen.

Machida & Anderson don't strike me as money driven people (i could be dead wrong of course)

i'm not sure the UFC could offer the "insane amount of money". for as popular as the UFC is, their top stars don't make anywhere close to what boxers make

I see your point, but if Dana White wants this fight to happen badly...it will happen. It's up to him and the fans and business will let him know which decision to make.

maybe someone should start a rumor that machida banged anderson's mama!!

Or offer them an insane amount of money.

I hear what youre saying but I hate that excuse. When I play ball I ALWAYS guard my friend because we know each other's style so well that it makes us play our best. plus he is on my level too.

i think it youre the best you wanna fight the best period.

**** all that. Give 'em the right money and it will happen. This ain't a backyard one on one. It's a business. If Dana wants that to happen badly, he'll make it happen.

If I had the knowledge, I would make a sig of Rashad doing the dance after KTFO Chuck and then show him getting KTFO.

I'll sport it if someone can make it.

Rashad Evans always classy in interviews. Gotta give it up for him.

Dayuuum!!!!!!!! That man got KTFO!!!!!!!!!! Yesssssssssssss!

Yesssssssssssssss! Rashad slept.

Watch for Rashad kicking.

machida takes round 1 on the strength of a flurry that temporarily dropped Rashad. don't think Rashad landed anything that round

He will. He always does.

Michelle "The Karate Hottie" Waterson, she's 4-3 in MMA

I'd let her win. She'd be 5-3.

Hopefully this one doesn't fall in line with the rest of the card and puts on a show. I say there is a 30% chance of this being very exciting, and I think it will.

Same here. I say Rashad does what he has been doing. Impresses every time he steps in the Octagon. Having said that, I don't like him. I hope Machida knocks him out cold with a kick and then Rampage gets to knock him out with a right hand.
