He is nearly a perfect fighter. I couldn't believe how incredibly easy he read and controlled Forrest. Forrest may not be the most technical fighter but he is far from an amateur, yet Silva absolutely exposed him as if it was his first time in the octagon.
I watched it over and over. His performance is mind blowing. The second time Forrest hit the canvas he had a look of pure fear in his eyes. Shortly there after he put his hands up basically begginf him to not hit him again.
I actually felt sympathy for him as a man. He was embarrased to the point he couldn't even stay in the ring and walk out in shame (my perception).

You literally have to watch the slow-mo version a few times before you realize just how much quicker Silva was, I mean it looked at first like forrest just tripped. I couldn't believe the punches he landed in the last minute and totally took the guts out of Forrest. One of the most dominating fights I've ever seen, sure we've all seen 10 second KOs but this was just like cat and mouse with him... unrealOriginally posted by blm View PostHe is nearly a perfect fighter.

Griffen didn't really look hurt, just made a fool of and I think when he put his hands up it was just out of frustration that after all that training and planning, he was wout witted and out classed. I wish he'd have gone for a takedown.
Although I've always seen it as a ridiculous proposal on mma forums I'm actually thinking Fedor Vs Silva would be a feasable matchup

Forrest looked hurt. He looked like he was fighting through a standing knock out; trying to regain his composure. He stood even less of a chance on the ground.
Even though Fedor is heavier and bigger than Silva I don't think its a ridiculous match up. I think it would be a real interesting fight to see.

I agree and honestly I think Silva is not one to turn down a fight. He's proven that this is almost child's play to him. It's time to step it up and see what goes down.Originally posted by blm View PostForrest looked hurt. He looked like he was fighting through a standing knock out; trying to regain his composure.

I heard forrest had a dislocated jaw.... Whether it is true or not I'm not sure....
He was definitely totally embarrassed by how out skilled he was and Silva showed just how incredibly skilled he is.... I also believe he is skilled enough to fight anyone in MMA and make it a good fight... weight class or not..

Forrest had all the hype from The Ultimate Fighter, and he and Bonner had a great fight. I have become more and more disappointed in Forrest after each fight since.
His fight with Rampage and Shogun were great fights.

I read that he did dislocate his jaw early on and lost his hearing in the ear on that side of his head. Supposedly that is the reason he dashed out of the ring "for medical atttention." Nothing has been released from his camp yet.Originally posted by CrankinSteiN View PostI heard forrest had a dislocated jaw.... Whether it is true or not I'm not sure....

There are still a lot of great fights. You can't control the outcomes like you can the business. A lot of people hate Dana White. I like his business style and what he has done with MMA. Sure I'm not a huge fan of all the self promotion that is allowed, but there is a business side of it all.
