I see people calling that the greatest fight of all time.. Lol. C'mon now. 10 minutes of that fight was Silva literally TRYING to get finished.. It was a very fun fight, and probably one of the top 3 FOTY so far.. but c'mon now.

You guys I have a theory about Matt Brown... I think he's a Saiyan.  I mean seriously, when he gets hurt, his power level goes up and he gets stronger.


We haven't even seen his final form yet.

Silva really needs to work on his cardio before taking on a top 10 fighter.

Erick Silva being taken out on a stretcher, dang.  He took a ton of shots and took a while to get up, hopefully he's okay.

He's got heart for days.  I was impressed  with Erick's first round against Brown. And that's coming from a huge Matt Brown fan.  He really needs cardio though.

That and Matt Browns interviewing skills are fantastic.  Now if only someone could teach Mark Hunt them.

No broken rib, dudes. A liver shot automatically puts your body into a temporary state of shock, as your organ is literally struck by the force of the blow.

I really hope Erick Silva is okay, that was hard for me to even watch. My.thoughts go out to a healthy return for him.
