Luck got him through his fight with Marquardt, he beating in short fashion by Maia.
He only got this title shot because of a lack of other fighters, not for his accomplishments.
Bruised swollen rib with bruised muscle around it. Was in pain for a week prior to fight. Dr told him not to fight.
Sonnen exploited silvas weakness, he can be taken down at will and controlled by a wrestler. He's simply the first world class wrestler silva has ever faced. I thought hughes was done but I'm thinking him verse silva might be a great match up now. He could definitely get him to the mat and do some damage, plus he's got great submission defense.
someone needs to go up or down a weight class but we need to see silva vs. gsp
Luck doesn't get you a unanimous 30-27 decision over one of the best fighters at 185. That was a legit #1 contender match.
Using excuses for a poor showing is lame. Absolutely no need to talk abut it if you take the fight.

Silvas one of the best fighters in the world, but as a person he's an incredible douche. Doesn't surprise me ods is an anderson apologist.
Blah blah blah.. Dude wasn't tip top. And that's all that needs to said as a reason why Anderson didn't fight very well.
Maybe, didn't watch that fight, nor read anything about it.
