I don't know how you guys can just hate on Silva, I mean hes clearly the best fighter in the WORLD right now..... I am not a fighter, but im sure it is difficult to fight someone who wont fight back... Maia had no intention of fighting Silva all he wanted to do was lay on his back the entire fight.. If Maia landed a punch he would instantly go to his back bold strategy :-\ Yeah the fight wasn't impressive, but that is what happens when nobody in the world is on your level, it takes no effort for Silva to defeat the opponents he has been facing. If you watched the fight you would know that Silva could have ended the fight whenever he wanted he knocked Maia down 4 times in the first 2 rounds with leg kicks.
Who's next?? I mean I would love to see a fight between GSP and Silva completely contrasting styles it would make for a great fight. The problem is that Silva cuts to make 205 cuts even more to make 185 and seeing as GSP wont go up to 185 it looks like Silva would have to cut to 170, which probably will never happen. It is very unfortunate that GSP has nobody to fight at his weight and that Silva has nobody to fight at either 185 or 205.. we know that Silva Machida wont happen.... so lets see Silva move up to HWT and take on some people that actually stand a chance.
Or maybe the UFC can sign someone like Gegard Mousasi and have Silva fight him............. Just my opinion on things its hard to impress people when your so much better than everyone, and your expected to have a spectacular knockout everytime you go out there.
