interesting. What round was that front kick to the face of Bisping?
UFC FIGHT NIGHT 84 - Silva v Bisping
- Thread starter Madrox
- Start date
True only way for Bisping of getting close to a title shot; if he can beat
other contenders Jacare or Belfort
When Silva does focus and bite down on his mouth piece and fight, it's fuckin great to watch. I'm conflicted on him retiring. I don't want him to mess up his legacy with unnecessary losses but I still want to see him fuck people up. It's obvious he could still do it but it's just his focus. I don't think he could be champ again, but he could still entertain.
It was in the 5th rd, after Herb Dean stopped the fight
so the doctor can check on the bisping face damage.
That front kick wobbled bisping so bad he had to take 2 steps back
in order to get focused again.
I give bisping props for continue fighting, he was leaking really bad.
Presser starts soon. Media all seated. Fight network hosts are waiting to cut over to it. Stream it on youtube if you want.
They need to hurry up with the presser. Event wrapped 90 mins ago.
Bisping prob fucked up.
Yeah. Facial injuries for Bisping and Leites.
Presser just started.
Nah....he didn't put Bisping away.
There's the difference.
Still doesn't excuse him for clowning 85% percent of the match, when the 15% serious Silva showed that he could've destroyed him from the 2nd towards the last.
someone said the killer instinct isn't there anymore.......i'm reluctantly agreeing with them.

Vid?
Only Anderson will know why he didn't finish Bisping. That fight was just weird. Anybody know how many fight Anderson has left on his contract? Is he just playing around till he fulfills it and then bounce?

Return from injury and failed drug tests
Despite calls for Silva to retire from MMA,[77] it was confirmed on July 29, 2014 that Silva would return to the organization. Before UFC 179, Silva and UFC agreed on a new, 15-fight contract that replaced their previous deal which had eight fights remaining.[78]
On October 29, 2014, it was announced that Silva would coach opposite MaurĂcio Rua for The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil 4, which began filming in early 2015. Despite being coaches on the show, the two fighters will not face each other at the end of the season.[79] Silva's continued participation was briefly in doubt during the filming after the announcement of his failed drug test. Initially, Dana White announced that Silva would remain on the show as a coach.[80] Subsequently, Silva was pulled as one of the coaches and was replaced by AntĂ´nio Rodrigo Nogueira.[81]
In his first fight post-injury, Silva faced Nick Diaz in the main event of UFC 183 on January 31, 2015.[82] He won the fight via unanimous decision. In the days after the fight, it was revealed that Silva tested positive for Drostanolone and Androstane, two anabolic steroids, in pre-fight drug screening on January 9, 2015.[83][84] Nevada State Athletic Commission chairman Francisco Aguilar confirmed that the fight has not yet been overturned and can't be until a motion is passed by a majority of the commission. Any penalties, suspensions or changes to the outcome of the fight have to be presented as a motion and then voted on by the commission to enact the order.[85] On February 11, 2015, it was reported that Silva tested positive for an additional unknown illegal substance in a separate test that was related to UFC 183.[86] On February 17, 2015 NSAC executive director Bob Bennett confirmed to ESPN.com that Silva failed his postfight urine test and that Silva had tested positive for the steroid Drostanolone—the same banned substance he tested positive for during an out-of-competition test taken on January 9, 2015. Silva also tested positive for the anti-anxiety medication Oxazepam and Temazepam, which is used to treat sleep deprivation.[87]
On August 13, after several reschedules, the disciplinary hearing was held to decide on the subject. Silva's defense argued that a tainted sexual enhancement drug that a friend have given to Silva after a trip to Thailand was the root of the two failed tests for drostanolone and also appealed to mistakes in the NSAC testing procedures, pointing to a pair of drug tests, one on Jan. 19 and one after the fight, which Silva passed. He admitted to using both benzodiazepines the night prior to the fight as therapy to control stress and help him sleep. Silva's team was unable to explain the presence of androsterone in the Jan. 9 test. The commission rejected the defense and suspended him for one year retroactive to the date of the fight, as the current guidelines were not in effect at the time of the failed tests. He was also fined his full win bonus, as well as 30% of his show money, totaling $380,000. His victory was overturned to a no contest.[88][89][90]
In his first fight after his PED suspension was lifted, Silva faced Michael Bisping on February 27, 2016 at UFC Fight Night 84.[91] He lost the fight via unanimous decision. However, the fight was not without controversy as Silva dropped Bisping with a flying knee at the end of round three and believed he had won the bout. Referee Herb Dean said the fight was not over and it continued for another two rounds to the decision.[92] Both participants were awarded Fight of the Night honors.[93]

Damn I missed it.
Yeah To me Silva doesn't have killer instinct anymore. Bisping isn't in Silva's league but Silva played around too much. If Silva fought Rockhold he will lose and Silva's chin has been cracked now. The last couple of fights when Silva has been knocked down or out its been from a left hook.
http://www.allfreefightvideos.com/2016/02/anderson-silva-vs-michael-bisping-fight.html
There were flashbacks from prime Silva, and from the Silva that lost to Weidman, it was a good fight, but he can't be champion again, Luke Rockhold would destroy him.
sheeeyit, after watching it, I think Spider can contend w the current crop
Good look!!
For all of the people that said Silva should retire, I am not sure what fight you saw but that flying knee was high level MMA and maybe 10 people in the whole sport could do it - the front kick in the 4th rounds was classic Silva and besides the knock down in the 3rd and the eyepoke - Bisping did not lay a hand on him. Silva was blocking and countering - the judges were confused by Silva's hand movements the same way that Bisping was -
First rule in MMA - never leave it up to the judges

Everything....THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im telling you, it was a damn good exciting fight to go the distance as well... and folks talkin bout he should retire..
thats just some deep rooted hatin on Anderson Silva shit..
Oh he pissed me off... But I make time for an Anderson Silva fight, as long as he aint takin
too many blows to the head.. Im good at watchin him continue...
and
nobody answered my question, as any younger dude ever kicked bispings ass like that??
and yea Silva was robbed big time... but you are right he shouldve finished him like he finished sonnen!
I will pay PPV prices to see Anderson Silva fight, he will be entertaining and everyone should remember this is his first real fight since Weidman (Nick Diaz wasn't fighting for real) - Bisping try to pressure Silva but he never controlled any aspect of this fight from round 1, yes Bisping won round 1 and 2 (he did knock Silva down) but 3 should have been 10 - 8 and round 4 and 5 10-9 for Silva.
Finally, Silva knocked out Bisping and Herb Dean should have never let the fight go into the 4th round. That knee knocked out Bisping and UFC officials rushed into the ring (not his cornermen) - and tended to him which is tantamount to forfeiture. For Herb Dean not to call the fight - to allow more than a minute for Bisping to get his head together (Silva's cornermen never came into the ring - he didn't sit or get water ) and just to start the round 4 is a farce. yes part of it was Silva's fault but there is no neutral corner in UFC and him jumping on the cage was a mistake - you have to wait for the ref to call the fight - but damn everyone in the arena saw that Bisping was KO'd except Herb Dean...
That was a bullshit decision.... And Silva lost the fight himself, He had the shit won with the knee,... and few more punches or knees while Bisping was down and it would have been stopped quickly. You could tell Bisping was out of it after that knee to the grill. Silva Won the fight, but those bullshit antics and not being focused lost it for him. Neverless, Bisping wouldnt have gotten that decision anywhere else in the world.. he got fucked up..
