    Spur of the moment. He did tap. I was just that gutted.
    Gotta love the english fluency though.

    Ah no.... He's blaming himself losing 4 rounds on ribs.. too smug tbh


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,660 ✭✭✭SDTimeout


    I have never felt like this after a UFC fight.

    I wasn't this upset when i broke up with my girlfriend.

    Chael :(

    That sub will gloss over a fairly shít performance from Silva.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    Unlike Edgar / Penn. There is definitely a case for an immediate rematch

    He actually believed that he did badly I think !! I dont really like the smack he talks but he really played well and I think someone needs to convince him..

    Yup!

    In 5 years time, nobody will remember when they look at the record book.

    It'll just be a "W" beside his name.

    I'm chuffed, is it only me who wanted Chael to get his trap shut?

    I won money tonight. I had myself covered on spider by sub at 4/1

    but still :(

    To put in such a fight and come short would leave anybody disheartened. But to enter the ring to a chorus of jeers and boos, and leave with the crowd cheering your name is one hell of a consolation prize.

    I know this is OT and all, but i scored Penn v Edgar 48-47 to BJ

    (maybe that's why the NSAC aren't ringing me up to step in for Cecil though)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,628 ✭✭✭barry181091


    Stop this sh1t, why am I feeling bad for Chael, Cant even trust myself :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,265 ✭✭✭Seifer


    Great performance from Chael, a little tainted by the bs he tried to pull at the end pretending he didn't tap.
    Also wtf is Silva's skin made of? Or was Chael not actually hitting him that hard?


  • Registered Users Posts: 206 ✭✭Wexler12


    What a champion, got beat up for over 20mins and pulls out the win


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,825 ✭✭✭Mikeyt086


    Wow.

    I wanted Silva to win, but as soon as Chael took him down in the 5th I had conceded defeat for Silva. How he came out with that triangle I do not know, incredible. He did tap. How did Silva survive? Absolute domination from Sonnen but he couldnt put Silva away.

    What a fight, what a card. Loved it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,660 ✭✭✭SDTimeout


    Can't wait to rewatch that fight. I thought it could have been stopped a few times with un answered shots.


  • Moderators Posts: 8,725 ✭✭✭x PyRo


    I still don't know what happened! But these spoiler tags make me feel all shneaky! :D

    he hardly got his trap shut, he was 4 or 5 points up against Anderson Silva in the fifth round of a championship fight and nearly got out of the triangle in the end. Anderson just has the experience to pull it out from nowhere but everything Chael said he'd do he did minus the win and he went beyond ALL expectations of his performance.

    When is the post pr thingy on ?? Where can I see it


  • Site Banned Posts: 5,676 ✭✭✭jayteecork


    Feel bad for Sonnen he totally controlled the fight but in fairness he looked like he didn't hurt Silva at all. In fact Silva looked like he did more damage from his back.

    Had a nice 4fold with Davis, Dos Santos, Fitch, and Silva.

    I can explain what happened if you want
    Silva caught Sonnen in a triangle with 2 mins left. Sonnen couldnt escape and tapped. Ref stepped in but Chael (kinda) continued to fight.

    He definately tapped though.

    Sonnen was on the road to winning the fight but, Silva got a sneaky triangle and ended it. It didn't look like Sonnen tapped but the replay show it that he had.

    At least we know Silva can be beaten. I'm sure all the MW wrestlers at dying for a crack against him now.

    Nah, he didnt get his trap shut but i WANTED him to have his trap shut for him!

    Also, wtf was up with the crowd? Randomly booing and cheering it seemed?
