***** OFFICIAL UFC 117 thread ~ Silva/Sonnen ~ Sat. August 7th, 2010 - Oakland

[LeroyDibiase]

Silva told Dana "You happy now, bitch?"

 

[Deltronz]

anderson silva you are my hero

Co-sign! I can't remember the last time I screamed at a fight for happiness.

 

[ron_mexico]

HE TAPPED!!! But he deserves an immediate rematch.

 

[richlove]

Damn. he outdid Lesnar with that comeback. That was the biggest comeback I have ever seen. I guess that Nogueira brothers black belt is more than a prize in a happy meal. LOL

 

[Chills]

Infuckingcredible...

Thanks for the links gents

 

[Dacosta]

my cables out.....is it over?

 

[duppy_maka]

incredible
incredible
incredible fight
any doubt you had at Anderson Silva's greatness

as been put to rest.

Sonnen should get a rematch
but
Anderson is going to work on his take down defense
and crush him next time.

 

[LennyNero1972]

Glad to hear the good news!!!!!!!

 

[Naraku]

What a dumbass.

 

[P03t]

Co-sign! I can't remember the last time I screamed at a fight for happiness.

I screamed like a girl...lol

 

[HeathCliff]

Man what a fight

 

[LeroyDibiase]

I honestly think Silva tanked the first couple rounds. I mean Sonnen did his thing, but Silva wasn't going 100%

 

[cranrab]

i'm at this thread.

i can't say i knew that outcome would happen, but it looked to me like silva was waiting out the storm.

you had dudes in this thread that had already given up on the fight.

 

[SNYC]

@ the flip flop replies

and @ silva looking like a drunk putting on his gi

 

[richlove]

Those cac thought it was their night. How the fuck can you boo a nigga after he did that?

 

[LeroyDibiase]

How bout that Happy Meal toy bow bitch??!?!

 

[kdub83]

Damn I been moving I'm mad I missed it. It sounded like a good one.

 

[Mylansky]

Crackers Pissed off

 

[duppy_maka]

Anderson Got heart
I would have never thought Anderson Silva had that much heart

 

[DiamondKutta]

Damn, Silva is a Superhuman.

 

[LeroyDibiase]

The rematch should be immediate.

And it will be CRAZY.

This was like Rocky.

 

[HeathCliff]

On the real, Sonnen can walk around with his head high. He did something that no man has done to Anderson before. Although he didn't win the contest, he surely was the victor for the majority of this fight. His shit talking was much backed up IMO.

 

[younggiftedandblack]

HE TAPPED!!! But he deserves an immediate rematch.

He does. Armchair quaterbacking, but I think he could have held on and won the match.

 

[P03t]

I got alot of respect for Sonnen tho he won the stand up game IMO....he came to win....immediate rematch should happen...

 

[ron_mexico]

I have new respect for both men.

 

[Deltronz]

I sincerely apologize for ALMOST stopping this fight at the last round. Never EVER will I do that for a fighter at Silva's level again.

 

[DiamondKutta]

Ya'll see them Doogie Howser ear slaps.

 

[NightMare Paint]

Silva looked DEAD...all white boy had to do was AVOID A SUBMISSION and got overzealous...fucking wow

 

[cranrab]

Anderson Got heart
I would have never thought Anderson Silva had that much heart

i think you're mistaking heart for composure.

plus, that's just how they do when they're comfortable playing from their back. let dude posture up and offer up an arm.

 

[Boo_Slim]

Co-sign. I never got into any sport like that.

Co-sign! I can't remember the last time I screamed at a fight for happiness.

 

[richlove]

niggas ribs wear hurt. Goldberg full of shit. He was calling a new champ, now hes talking that never count him out shit

 

[sumofyallniggasisbitches2]

GOTDAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I GOT MAD AND TURNED THE FUCKING STREAM OFF AFTER HE GOT TAKEN DOWN IN THE 5TH

 

[BigFish999]

I admit it, I counted Silva out......But damn the True Champ brought it home!

RESPECT!!!

 

[Deltronz]

Great UFC. Great main event. Silva IS the best pound for pound fighter in the world.

 

[gene cisco]

The rematch should be immediate.

And it will be CRAZY.

This was like Rocky.

Man he beat his ass for 4 rounds.

As we talked about, being tired can fuck anybody up. Sonnen should have played it easy in round 5 after getting position. He would have won easy.

The same attitude that allowed him to dominate 4 rounds cost him the fight.
