Second post here. Hopefully this is a warm community. What happened to Anderson silva? He used to be untouchable now I'm reading a headline from Daniel Cormier saying that was his easiest fight of his career :snoop:
Welcome, DC is talking to talk. Cormier couldn't get any offense off on Silva he actually had an easier time controlling Rumble in both matches than controlling Silva in 1. Case and point because Silva didn't give up off his back.

Eh Rumble put paws on Cormier both fights, Anderson fight was a breeze. Cormier had a bad weight cut that fight too. Totally pointless fukking fight.

You actually saw Cormier wince and get "hurt" against Silva. Cormier ate them Rumble shots and dominated him both times ending with the ref getting Cormier off of Rumble. I don't recall that happening to Silva.

He wanted no part of the stand up and even on the floor where he had a weight and stylistic advantage g&p = nil..Surprise he wants to say Anderson was his easiest when the hendo fight was like something out of Saturday morning shotgun. Must be an American wrestling fraternity thing

I think he will do worse than Will Brooks, he takes a ton of punishment, can't see that style holding up against better competition.

No doubt. I don't think he has a lot of years left in him. Sooner or later, someone will crack him but at least he'll give us some entertaining fights along the way.
