    obviously Silva is more athletic,but there are some other reasons. Silva is 71% successful on strikes, and his opponent is 41%. Silva is 67% effective on takedowns, his opponent 56%.
     NOw to defense, Silva's take down defense is 83% and his opponent is 62%.They are equal in in striking defense, but the point has been made. I am only uncomfortable about this because of the juice I had to lay -475, but that usually means it will be hard for him to lose. Good luck

    Not against Marquardt he didn't suck. I had Marquadt at -800, I know retarded. A big reason why I quit betting mma. Wasn't even my pick, a friend does pretty good with mma and everybody and everything I read said lock for Marquadt.

    The real lock for tonight is Dos Santos to beat Nelson. Junior has made me some serious cash in the past. I want to get on it so bad, but I made a pact with the gods...no more mma. Lines are fucked up.

    Silva and Aldo are the only guys you can trust in MMA.  No one else.

    I've never bet UFC before because of stuff like that lol~!

    Great fight though, Silva used an excuse on why he looked like crap "RIB INJURY".

    How about re-match :-)

    [quote]The ref stops it but Sonnen protests the stoppage. The replay shows what looks like a tap from Sonnen but it is hard to say for sure. Strange end to a great showing by Sonnen.[/quote]

    Any truth to that?

    He tapped.

    No dispute by Sonnen in post fight interview.

    I've NEVER seen a guy destroy his opponent for 23.5 of 25 minutes, and LOSE like that before.  All he needed to do was lay on top of him and stay out of prone positions.  Stupid, stupid, stupid.  His dumb ass corner said, "you're up 4-0 but you STAY AGGRESSIVE",

    Dumb.

    Imagine laying -500 on SIlva and having to go through that ordeal? You need a defibrillator just to get through the night.

    Yeah Silva took a beating... but the Tap out was 100 %. He actually tapped twice but didn't reach the mat or Silva's body the first.

    I'm going through all the UFC Ultimate fighter all seasons with my nephew great w/o commercials :)

    Some good fights on that show~

    Credit to both men they showed great Stamina.

    Yeah Silva took a beating... but the Tap out was 100 %. He actually tapped twice but didn't reach the mat or Silva's body the first.

    I'm going through all the UFC Ultimate fighter all seasons with my nephew great w/o commercials :)

    Some good fights on that show~
