I am not arguing that he didnt get KTFO, and it especially pissed me off the way Silva was acting....BUT I have to say I was not impressed with Weidman up to that point. LISTEN 1st
He had a nice take down in the 1st, he did some nice ground and pound, plus the leg lock. But after that he looked like he was done going for any takedowns, and besides SIlva standing still with his hands down, there was not much else.
Tell me if it did not look like Weidman was kind of lost? I actually expected for Silva to go for the kill. I have tried to find exact stats, but for "The Most Prolific Wrestler" in the UFC(bullshit), how many takedowns did he have? Or did he feel he had a good chance on his feet?
Food for thought....Also even though there is no scheduled rematch SIlva opened as a favorite in Vegas
