can we stop mythologizing the fight?
anderson silva didn't claim to have "broken" ribs. or even a broken rib.
he deserves a lot of credit for being patient, remaining composed, and executing.

yeah but he has 20 lbs less of muscle. although Sonnen is more relentless of a wrestler and Rashad sometimes stands too much Rashad has way more strength.
They way he made Forrest look you may be right. That still amazes me how he was able to toy with forest like he was a child. That shit was sick...
You're either blind as a bat or a damn fool.You can't tell a fan boy anything. That fight could've easily been stopped at least twice.
Nigga, stop.I take it Brock fought a better fight then Carwin because he won even though he got his ass whopped the first round and it could've easily been stopped. these two fights weren't called for the exact same reason. the champs were the ones on their backs.
You're talking out your ass, white boy. You clearly don't know shit about MMA. At this point, you're not even saying shit worth an intelligent reply.Yeah a winner is a winner but we know who fought a better fight. probably one of those cats who think Robert Horry was better then Karl Malone cause he has rings. lol gtfoh give respect when its due.
I'll link you to the video where he said he fought with broken ribs, right now.
Again, Sonnen lost! Sonnen lost to an injured Anderson Silva. Done.
i watched this last night.
people on BGOL have to stop imagining they heard things that were never said.
1st, anderson silva said he broke his ribs during training. he didn't say he had broken ribs during the fight.
matt hughes said he suffered a cut under his right eye in training 5 weeks before his fight too. big deal.
so post a link which shows that anderson silva was fighting with broken ribs (or a single broken rib) in last night's fight.

I know you're going to get upset when I say this....he probably had an injury to his ribs...but no one is fighting with broken ribs...the commission and the UFC wouldn't allow it...
and there is no way anyone is fighting with broken ribs...too dangerous and you're not 100%....
now some of you cats will try to make Silva seem like a GOD so be it...I'm a fan of A.S....hell I'm a fan of the sport...he was dominated throughout the fight standing and on the ground....
he won....but he didn't look good...alot of the mystic has rubbed off...just like Fedor...just like Tyson...just like RJJ etc....
After the fight Ed Soares translated that Anderson injured his ribs two weeks before the fight..

Press play, shut up and listen.
He broke his ribs before the fight, not during, you fucking idiot, and was not cleared by his doctor and FOUGHT ANYWAY. Shut the fuck up now.![]()
Sonnen's arrogant ass even said he believes it & could tell something was physically bothering Anderson.
Maybe you need to peep the whole thing on ufc.com
i knew illiteracy runs rampant here, but who knew there was a prime example of poor comprehension here too?
nice and simple, dumb ass: provide proof that anderson silva had 1 or more broken ribs in the octagon last night.
not broken rib(s) 8 weeks ago, 4 weeks ago, 2 weeks ago, but LAST NIGHT in the octagon.
until then, STFU.

*sighs*
again, i am NOT arguing that anderson silva didn't have sore/injured/bruised ribs, i am arguing that he didn't have BROKEN rib(s).
maybe you need to peep the whole thing on ufc.com.

yes, i saw that too.
and i believe the original word he said was "hurt" translated into "injured".
not "broken".
Hard to imagine fighting with broken ribs, but I do know he didn't look the same last night. I expected Sonnen to take him down, but to touch his chin while in stand-up?? No way, and on multiple occasions??
No one could even lay hands on Silva prior to last night.
And the injury took place 2 weeks before the fight, I'll post the video again for you where anderson states his ribs where broken.
http://www.mmator.com/videos-seriou...-speaks-from-the-heart-in-english-t27348.html
poor, delusional, simple m.f.
NOWHERE in the video does he say "2 weeks before the fight"
NOWHERE in the video does he refer to a doctor clearing him for the fight. he doesn't even say when he visited the doctor.
the extent of the doctor visit was "no fight - is dangerous for you".
BGOL is comedy.
come on MFH....the NSAC will not allow a fighter to fight with Broken ribs...its not the UFC its the commission that determines who is eligible to fight....
so if he had broken ribs he would not be able to fight...just like Alves could not fight Fitch earlier due to a ct scan that came back irregular...the COMMISSION PULLED HIM OUT...
its the commission that has that right...no one else...so thats a ridiculous claim....
all fighters claim to have a worst injury....Ed Soares said he had an INJURY DURING CAMP....not broken ribs...
famo you telling me you are going to believe Silva fought with broken ribs that could have killed him or puncture a vital organ for a measly 500-600k....

Welcome to ignore.
BGOL cats want to create a distorted reality for their heroes. happens in basketball threads all the time too.
I know that. lol BUT... He likely had injured/hairline-fractured ribs that mended enough to eek by a pre-fight physical. Either way, he was far from 100%... and still won.

Contusion!!!!!!!!!! What happens to a contusion in the "barber shop"(BGOL)? It turns into a few cracked ribs.
A nigga fight with a cold, by the time the fight is three days old he had small pox.
Shit is crazy on here. I know a cat had broken ribs and was cleared by a doctor to go home and passed away in his sleep due to them puncturing something.![]()
Hey, idoit, check the video I already posted, mark 4:25...then listen further on how Chael admits he knew Silva wasn't feeling right then...
So obviously it affected his performance yet he still got the W is the point.
...and which hero/basketball thread(s) would you be referring to?
