UFC, etc.

Yep I was wrong about that. The site was stuttering so I finally saw the replay to see that.

Looked like it hurt him bad too.

 

[KBA]

Is Chael quitting the UFC or just his ridiculous heel BS now? Where does he go now lol

 

[Devil_666]

still holding shorts while punching.

Yeah that was just blatant cheating.

 

[daikkenaurora]

The only fight I wanted to see was the main event. Happy that Anderson won. Chael will probably still talking trash.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

Grabbing shorts ..classy!!!

Yeah I said the same thing. He was holding on the whole time they were clinched and the ref didn't see it.

Yeah, why have rules in the first place if you don't enforce them.

 

[PandaClaws]

Knee was legit, still holding shorts while punching.

He held his shorts once, for maybe 2 seconds, and in no way was Sonnen even close to taking him down when he did that.

EDIT:

He did it twice, but still that wouldn't have affected the outcome in any way. What killed Chael was that stupid spinning back fist. What was he thinking?

standing up at all for even 1 second with Silva was stupid.

Lol...that was a long 2 seconds. Anderson and Yvs Lavigne have taught us that shorts grabbing is now a legal technique in the octagon.

 

[KBA]

^ Sour Grapes if you think that cost Sonnen the match.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

Are you saying he didn't do it? Sonnen's failed attempt at a backfist cost him the fight.

 

[KBA]

I'm saying it sounds like some people
are blowing something that happens every card, without changing outcome, out of proportion because Sonnen croaked.

 

[PandaClaws]

It was stupid of Chael to do it, but even when Chael did take Anderson to the ground he couldn't do squat. Andersons defense on the ground was top notch. Sonnen did get up from that knee, and Anderson quickly popped him with a right hook that put him on his ass.

Last fight was great, the rest of the card not so great. What was up with that Damian Maia fight? It looked like he almost broke Kims neck with that slam.

 

[wanderlai]

At least they are now going to have a BBQ in Brazil.

Not sure who's left for Anderson to fight now. GSP won't go up in weight, Jones is damn near a heavyweight, ...???

 

[ArmoredFoe]

yeah Chael lost fair and square, regardless of Anderson grabbing the shorts that was an instant that wouldnt have changed the outcome regardless. Chael took a hard knee to the chest and basically was dropped by a punch and then just balled up like a baby. All that trash talk and turtles up

 

[Niltusk]

Chael's reaction to Anderson grabbing his shorts: I'll grab his shorts or the next guys down the road, who cares, it happens...

 

[ArmoredFoe]

Yeah see even Chael knows better. It didnt change anything nor was he hurt by any of that flurry Anderson threw while his shorts were being grabbed. Chael knows he lost and now just has to stay humble and take his loss like a man. He didnt deliver.

 

[Niltusk]

Yeah, his answers are always hilarious in the post presser...

Chael on "did you think the spinning backfist was a bad idea?" : I don't know what I did, people said spinning backfist,I'll have to watch the tape, I took the knee and it kinda went downhill from there.

 

[Rock83]

Grabbing the shorts and fence is nothing new is it?If those few seconds of Anderson doing it is bad,then i don't know what other ufc fighters is
Chael said it himself at the Post fight press c.It's stupid to nitpick on those things and he did it right back on Anderson so...

Besides,it had nothing to do with the outcome of the fight,Chael blew it with his spinning backfist attempt.If there is one thing to talk about with Anderson,it's his risky move by wiping Vaseline off his face and on his body.
After everything Anderson said about Chael after the fight,you would think someone would have the heart to apologise to the Brazilian people and Anderson's family,the stuff he said was way over the line.

Grabbing them is nothing new, but holding them for extended time is. If Yves was paying attention he should've broken up the clinch, and who knows what could/would happen from there.

Everybody quickly calls Sonnen on the crap he pulls, but easily dismiss what Silva does.
