- Speaking to Globo TV, Silva had this to say:
“If Muhammad Ali came up saying I wasn’t humble, then I’d think if I was humble or not.
There was no lack of respect. I respect everybody. All the provocation, hands down… It should continue, it’s part of the show
Nobody likes to lose. I train four months to win. But you end [up] learning with your mistakes, and I learned the worst way possible.
After everything that happened, we calm down and I realized I had something to question, even question Anderson Silva. I lost to myself, and that’s the worst loss. Losing by knockout shakes you, [it] will be in history, but will leave a lesson.
Everybody has to retire, but it’s not my time yet. I’ll get a rematch. Chris gave me this opportunity and we’re fighting again. That’s another chance to overcome, reinvent myself as a person and athlete.” source | |

| I agree with him. It's part of his overall game, and it can be effective when he does it at the right time (he's shown that several times in the past). He simply did it way too much against Weidman, and paid for it. But that doesn't mean he should outright abandon it altogether. | |
