im pissed at the liddell v. silva fight.
i still honestly think silva is the better fighter...but the rules of the UFC don't cater to his style like they do to chuck's. im not making excuses for him...he lost, no doubt about that. but i feel that when he knocked chuck down he could've ended the fight in pride (by using heel-stomps) where in the UFC he would've been penalized for this. the UFC has more rules and is more "socially correct," which is a major reason why i feel some of the pride fighters have had a hard time transitioning.
anyways...great fight card tonight. well worth standing in buffalo wild wings and GSP dominated. he was making a point by taking down hughes, who's known for his wrestling, and submitting him. great fight by GSP...he's officially solidified himself as the top in his class, and possibly the best pound for pound fighter in the UFC.
i agree...but it was a good fight not to mention silva has been out of the ring for 6yrs..not bad for 1st fight back.
