So I just rewatched the fight, Anderson defended the entire double leg takedown by grabing Sonnen's shorts, he then turned sonnen off the cage by grabbing his shorts, and then on the release as Sonnen was trying to circle off the cage Anderson grabbed his shorts and held on while punching him in the face as Sonnen was unable to move with his shorts being held, I hate how that happened because Anderson likely didnt' need that.

Silva needs to move to LHW or retire. He has nothing left to prove in MW.

Didn't see the fight, but I'm guessing Silva dominated. Dude is scary. He should just fight someone heavier, even if he can't get his own weight up.

SWDC's own Ward should drop down to 185 to fight him. :)

Look at the .gif on the previous page. That shows it all.

He did fight in LHW one or 2 matches, I think that was one I saw on spike where he dropped the dude.

Does Silva ever not make his opponent look way overmatched?

If by dominated you mean, was taken down in 6 seconds and was fully mounted for the 1st round. And won because his opponent threw a ridiculously dumb spinning back-fist and then turtled... then, yes he dominated.

Yeah, well, those gifs make it look like Silva hardly broke a sweat.

less than 10 seconds worth of action. He won, no disputing, but those 10 seconds are the only 10 seconds in 2 rounds that he had the upper-hand.

Sonnen took him down but didn't do any damage in the 1st round. He has pillow hands, I can't believe people Sonnen was going KO The Spider.

Sonnen has clear shots on Silva in the first, but didn't take advantage of it. He was palm tapping him.

Someone is mad.

The knee was fine.
The vasoline was questionable.
The short grabs were cheating.

The ref took a little awhile to rub off the vaseline that Anderson rubbed on himself. The ref warned Anderson a couple of times for grabbing the shorts so it isn't like it wen't unnoticed. I am not sure how many warnings need to be given before points are deducted though.

Dominating in 10 seconds and winning is more impressive than 5 minutes of worth of laying on someone.

Just got back from the Casino. It was absolutely ******* nuts when Silva finished Sonnen.

Making yourself slippery and harder to hold down if you get taken down...

I don't disagree. The comment was made about Silva dominating, which wasn't the case.

I liked what Kenny Florian had to say. Sonnen had Silva in a good spot before going for the excessive/unnecessary spinning elbow.
