UFC 148: Sonnen vs Silva II

[DanWS]

Any MMA fans on here? If so, are you as excited as I am for the rematch between Anderson Silva and Chael Sonnen? The first fight was fucking epic, with Sonnen basically pounding the shit out of Silva for 4 and a half rounds until Silva grabbed a 1 second window of opportunity and managed to get Sonnen into a triangle and tap him out.

The press conference was yesterday... Silva means business this time. I have a feeling he's gonna fuck Chael up this time! (I love both fighters by the way, but Silva is my favourite of all time).

I can hardly wait! I hope Silva DESTROYS sonnen in the first or second round... 3 hours and 4 minutes till it starts!!!

You mean 3 days, right? lol

[JUMPDMC]

I think chaels intimidated, if Silva can avoid being taken down I think he'll win it in the second round.
KO

[elmeg]

Sorry I meant 3 days and 3 hours and 55 minutes... haha my bad

[Spyder]

was obvious who would win

whether u believe anderson wanted to submit him, or that he had an injured rib
once anderson learns your tricks you have no hope

he out wrestled him in the first but couldnt get the takedown after

if u stand with anderson u will die

people everywhere are saying that knee was illegal but if u have eyes at all it was to the solarplex which is completely leagal, the vasaline was wipped off and wouldnt have been a factor anyway

anderson got the deserved win, hopefully sonnen shuts it

[JUMPDMC]

The only thing I didn't like about this fight was when Silva was holding Chaels shorts.

[Spyder]

yeah little silly

[Spyder]

i dont think he will fall off to the heights of liddell or forrest or coutore
but he may lose if they give him a superfight against jones or gsp
or if they find an amazing grappler who can actually get him down

[DanWS]

There's no one in the middleweight division left for Silva to fight. Maybe Bisping, but even he lost (controversially) to Sonnen. I'd fucking LOVE to see him fight John Jones but I don't see it happening.

[Spyder]

ya bisping is shit
itll either be weidman or lombard

but a superfight wont happen as dana would lose the legacy of one cash cow
