So as I'm walking out of the b-dubs where I watched the fight at this kid who couldn't be more than 11 looks up at is dad and say "You know what the 1st thing is that I'll do when I get home dad" ? ? ? "What son" ? ? ? "Take my ANDERSON SILVA poster down." I bout DIED LoL
....... That is the funniest thing I have ever heard.
Thats the terrible nature of the beast. Fans are viscous.
The kids making a good move. Best fighter in UFC history, probably. Showboater, definitely. Disrespectful to the sport, his fans and his opponent. Not Budo.
I was really disappointed too. I feel the kid. Still unsure of what to think. :confused:
Hilarious. Like the ending to an old episode of the Brady bunch or The Andy Griffith show.
We have the weirdest dna programming to see athletes and famous people as role models that should be judged and looked down upon for their decisions like they are not also human
Anderson has kept my ass entertained. His showboating knockout of Forest Griffin was one of the greatest trollings of skill of all time. He got what he asked for and couldn't take the hits. This was going to happen eventually.
MMA fans are the biggest band wagoneers
That's what fans are about, you're only as good as your last fight. Got what he was asking for though.
I said it once and i'll say it again. The greats never go out on top...dont for get Jordan played for the wizards.....Gretzky played for the Rangers. Name me one great that went out on top of there sport. I'll wait.
The thing is that this wasn't a decline, it was a damn shame because he still has the ability to have won that fight. I think every sports fan is aware of the potential "advantages" of showboating, we're also aware that they are minor and its a stupid risk.Quote:

It was with the rangers that he broke Gordie Howe's all time scoring record, so these last years although he wasn't on the best team, he was playing very well (near top of the league) and his time with the rangers secured his legacy.

Ray Lewis won and Super Bowl and and killed a man, I would say that is going out on top :)
Nice, Martin. I forgot about him! Probably because he was a Brown.

Anderson seemed like he was relieved that he was finished. Probably been waiting 3 or 4 fight for someone to hurry and beat him so he can retire. I don't think Anderson loved it like he used to love it. He was outgrowing the fame. It got old...he wanted to settle down with family.
Isn't that Coming to America? I think? With Arcenio Hall and Eddie Murphy? Great movieQuote:
