Totally not his style. I think the thigh have have contacted Sonnens face but thats not gonna cause damage. I believe fight was stopped early like ALOT of them are but that is Chaels fault for just curling up in the fetal position and letting Anderson throw at will. Very disappointing fight after all that hype

After the 1st round, I was thinking this could be the first fight all over again but I think Sonnen got too cocky.
I was also very disappointed with Kim going down with an injury. I think if he could have kept things standing, he would have easily won that fight.
Next up is Munoz vs Weidman. Not really excited about this one, hence why it's free. Munoz could be close to a title shot if he wins this one convincingly.

I was most dissapointed with Silva when he a) tried to grease up before the fight and b) kept holding on to Sonnens shorts.
Def looks bad on Silva for holding shorts. Not so sure he "tried" to grease up. Really looks like he wiped his eyes and got vas on his hands and no where else to wipe to me. But you never know man, short hold looked bad. Maybe he is turning into a lil cheater like GSP
As for Chael being able to beat on Anderson any day of the week, i disagree. He doesnt do allt of "beating" on anyone. Dont get me wrong, he is a great fighter/athlete but he isnt know for really punishing anyone. More of a takedown and control fighter. He does try and land shots tho but usually doesnt do a whole lot of damage. Look at the first fight. Silva didnt even really look like he was in a fight

True that, Chael does have the power though, so weird that he does not get the damage output other similar fighters have, with a more devestating GnP, he could do far better (or, hard to do "far better" being the second best in the world.. but hey) Imo.

Since I'm oldskool, I miss the good old day with Fedor being silent/expressionless over these days and the endless banter pre-fight. But I guess they have to sell this to beer drinking americans..
Yes and no. Somewhere in the middle is fine with me. Sonnen is just stupid and a little mental if you ask me.

Well, the character he plays sure is, but I'm not so sure the Sonnen behind the mask is stupid or mental, he actually seems very sharp, good at timing jokes etc. It just gets a bit much some times. For me, they could drop the entire "beef"-stuff altogether.

The sad part is, that's how he makes his money. Most of the top guys get PPV cuts and I've never seen anyone sell like Sonnen does so I'm sure that's in his contract.

He def sounds like everything out of his mouth is straight from Vince Mcmahon but it is fairly entertaining. Its also the reason he got a rematch so quickly. Make the fans wanna see it and it will happen.
Also i kinda like the "beefs" between guys. Im not a huge fan of them smiling and hugging in the middle of the match. I dint wanna see guys "coast" through the fight. I wanna see them a lil angry and "giver", u know?
