Good to see your still around Mick!

That was an insane knockout, just casually walking back whilst Griffin charged forward and sparked him with a little slap.

Silva is to MMA what a prime Roy Jones was to boxing.

Sensational athlete, incredible skills.

Crazy, I think he's P4P number 1, sorry Fedor.

We are kind of discussing the card on the hidden board http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...streams-5.html

By "we" I mean me and CFH :-\

Was nice of Floorian to lay down for him. OK, time to go find the Silva fight I missed! :eek:

Re: **Silva sparks out Griffin***

Silva has to go to 205. Too many great fights to be made there. Let Henderson/Belfort/Marquardt/Maia settle things @185 then he can come back to MW.

BJ Penn is the man, Florian's just a mere mortal who didn't listen to GSP's advice. To be fair to him GSP running after anybody with a needle is scary.

Anyway sorry I didn't mention you. Sometimes I forgot about the little people with white colored screen names.

Whoa :o That was pretty cool. My brother called me and called it the MMA equivalent of Pacquiao-Hatton, if so pretty cool.

That is a good comparison. Not only the fight, but also the weights. Silva coming up and Forrest supposedly walking around at 240. Although Forrest didn't really look drawn like Hatton did for the Pacquiao fight, it still might be too much weight to lose.

I don't usually write off fighters just because of a loss or two, and I'm no neurologist or speech pathologist, but I didn't like the way Forrest sounded before this fight, and after the way he crumpled, I think he'd be wise to switch to training/coaching.

I think Evans may have ruined him...

Re: **Silva sparks out Griffin***

That was an interesting match and no doubts about it, Silva is on the top of his game and his head movements are seriously sick and fluid and his ground game is a A+ one.

Re: **Silva sparks out Griffin***

wow! he just toyed with Forrest. I say throw him in there with Brock next :)

Ok. i'm being ridiculous, but I'd like to see him fight some more guys at 205 before heading back to 185.

Re: **Silva sparks out Griffin***

....now I can say I finally saw Anderson Silva and I think that dude is pretty damn good. He does have kind of a RJJ aura about him. So I guess you guys can bring the tally for "MMA fighters Lyle respects" up to 3....Machida, GSP, and Silva.

I said it before and I'll say it again Anderson Silva if the PFP#1 combat sports fighter in the world.. Better than Pac better PBF. He is a complete fighter in every sense

Thats not the measuring stick.. Pac and PBF Can only box

Anderso Silva can do it all, he is a complete fighter. Despite your disdain for MMA the reality is he is a phenom in all ranges of combat

And in MY opinion, that is the most lethal of all the combat sports (have you heard of the number of sprains/dismemberments that happen in that sport? :-X)

And yes, Silva is amazing. Amazing. Sadly, many people think, because he only shows striking now days (who the hell wants to come within range to try a takedown?) he is not good on the ground, while in reality he is a black belt in BJJ.

Lyle, you say you only respect Machida, GSP, and now Silva. Do you respect GSP as a fighter, or more as an athlete in general?
