WTF was Silva doing there??

He had him in trouble and just let him off the hook, he could of finished Rishad then stupid move.

Yeah i watched it too and could not believe that he stood there and was doing the whole macho show boat thing to get rashad to open up and then when he caught rashad and had him on queer st, he stood there and show boated while rashad recovered and then he even stood some more with his hands on his waist while he himself recovered from gassing lol It was disgraceful.

Silva was seriously gassed after the first round, probably due to the scrambles after getting took down so often. Even after catching Evans in the 3rd he looked spent. He literally had nothing left to finish the job which isnt good enough really. He threw a shot after he had hurt Evans and nearly fell over himself through exhaustion.

Silva is my favourite fighter, and he is usually lethal with the finish. I guess most of his wins have come within the 1st round, so he has never had to go further. Serious questions marks now have to be raised over his stamina. Either way, as gutted as I am he didnt finish Evans, I still love him.

I was impressed with how much Rashad dominated Silva on the ground and everything for the first 2 rounds.

It was a good match and Rashad's takedowns have been too much to handle for Tiago who still did show good defense once on the ground. But Rashad, wow, very good boxing and overall control.
