Holy Shit the fight went off?? It was in Dubai right bro?

Happy to see him lose. People are pissed that Silva didn't finish his fight, he just put on a show dancing and shit. Dana White was a little pissed off, so much so, that he even said something to Silva's trainer before the last round.

Props to Edgar but something was def. wrong with Penn. His left knee was wrapped and he seemed extremely fatigued from the 3rd round on. He slugglishly walked around the ring throwing little more than jabs with the occasional right while Edgar danced around picking his spots even taking Penn down which is unheard of.

A mod may want to edit the post and place "spoiler" to it. No disrespect intended towards Aeliop of course.


Frankie put on a great fight, and took BJ out of his game plan. I had Edgar winning rounds 3/4/5...and rounds 1 & 2 were close to go either way, so he could have won those too depending on how the judges scored them....IMO. If you would have asked me if Edgar would have had a chance to win this fight beforehand, i'd said "no," but he did it! The guy did a great job.

As good as Anderson Silva is, I felt he went overboard with the taunting. I mean some here and there to throw the other guy off is fine, but he went too far imo....and then he didn't capitalize and finish the fight and it went the full 5 rounds. The last 2 to 2-1/2 rounds he just circled around the ring doing nothing.

Was he tired from all the show-boating he did? Or, did he just do it on purpose for some unexplained reason?

It was great to hear the crowd root for Maia and GSP during the fight though


The Hughes/Gracie fight....no disrespect, but it sucked imo.


DOs Anjos had a nice fight against Etim, with a nice submission.


Anyway....look forward to hearing others thought on this???

I'm SOOOOO glad BJ lost. Frankie Edgar is a true blue collar east coast guy. Great to see a champ like that.

 

[Bionic]

I'm very happy for Edgar! BJ was... well, BJ. I'm sure he'll have no shortage of excuses. He didn't seem upset (or even interested) at the decision. I'm sure we'll hear ALL about it.

Anderson Silva was disrespectful and deserved every boo he received. He was egging Maia on but when Maia stepped to him , he'd run away. I'm starting to not be as much of a fan as I was. I mean, how many times are you gonna apologize after your fights for your performance? I'm sooooo glad that I didn't pay for this.

Agreed that a spoiler titled would have been good. I've been avoiding yahoo sports, etc to not see the results until I could watch the fights.

I'm still in shock...I didn't think Penn was beatable at 155

I second your thought, but Edgar really performed well.

 

[Hungry Hungarian]

Dammit. I guess there's no need to be buying the fight now! Well the good thing is I just saved $54.95!
