Man that guy is fluid...IMO he could have done something as a boxer....Don't know who he was sparring and not judging him in offense just the way he moves....The guy is like Water at times
I agree, looking forward to seeing him fight tonightQuote:

His footwork is impressive and his punch selection, but his handspeed has never been anything special too me and he's wide open defensively.
I feel the same way to be honest. I think it's a massive shame that st pierre and silva aren't a similar weight. That would be a great fight.Quote:

Awesome??? Running around in circles is awesome? Barely throwing a punch or anything for 5 round is awesome? How the fuck did he gas when he was only show boating for 3 rounds and then just did nothing. He was disgraceful and there he was abusing Maia for "not fighting"...the only one night fighting was Silva.Quote:

By the end of the fight the crowd was chanting heavily for Maia and then even towards the end they chanted for GSP. Fuck Silva, waste of a PPV...but was good to see Edgar beat BJ though.Quote:

I get taunting when your tired but to be bouncing around like your on speed (not saying hes on speed just a comparison) and running around shit loads...you dont do that when your tired. Even when boxers are tired they backpedal but not the way he was doing it...it actually exuberated energy more than anything else. And why would he be tired, he barely did anything in the first 3 rounds except run around and throw the occasional kick or punch.Quote:

His 3-4 last fights have been extremely questionable as for the show and the way he did handled it, instead of going with his relentless aggression that did provide him with spectacular KO he went for a mild performance and happy to win without doing much.
