| So... with all these differing opinions out there, what do you think happened in the Silva/Weidman fight?
(you can choose more than one answer)

| well I voted didn't want to win but after seeing you could place more than 1 vote I would also say he just got caught......I think if he would have got hit with a wake up shot rather than a ko shot he would have taken control and ko\tko Weidman.

| After seeing you can vote for more than one, I voted for the 4 that I think go hand in hand...he was a shadow of himself, he didn't want to win, he lost heart and he wasn't all there. Each one of those can lead to another and all are fairly synonomous to a certain degree. Something wasn't right in Silva's head...he wasn't the fighter we've seen for 15 straight wins, 10 straight title defenses...8 of those 10 being unquestionable domination. I say 8 because of the obvious Chael part 1, and Cote of course...he would've beaten him either way, but Cote getting hurt and the fight being called sucked. | |

| i agree with samger2 on the cote fight. i was really enjoying that up till the injury. As for my vote i went he was a shadow of himself. but if weidman can ko silva again i will gladly change my anwser to weidman is the better fighter or atleast holds the skill sets to beat silva. i know weidmans champ and all and kudos to the guy for doing it. i just dont beleive silva gave it his all. but if silva pulls the same crap in there rematch then i will still hold true that weidman is the better fighter. beat me once shame on you, beat me twice shame on me. | |

| I voted Silva wasn't all there and didn't take Weidman seriously. I would have voted "Silva got caught clowning around like an asshole" if it was an option, but I suppose that's almost the same as not taking Weidman seriously.
Obviously it's a fight, and hundreds of things contribute to the outcome, but those were the two most prominent factors to me. | |
