you thought he was best fighter in the world or 1 of the 3 to 5?

I didnt

congrats to you if ya did you talent spotter you

I saw him beat Newton at Pride but then he lsot at the next one so I didnt know what to make of him, then the Chonan fight happened

I thought he was a good fighter and could give anyone a fight but I will admit I had no fucking clue he was this amazing or was about to go on an amazing run like this in the UFC

great point LA I worded the OP horribly

ok well then if you havent voted jsut pick what you thought was his most impressive win or the won that made you say fuck

I will admit if Sila was getting a shitload of hype before UFC days I wasnt aware, I knew of him but never thought he would be doing this

when he controlled Franklin in that clinch I was like holy shit

remember when Franklin controlled Edwin DeWees in the MuayThai clinch

Poor Edwin better thank his lucky stars he never faced Silva

also main reason I was somewhat skepticle of Silva was his decision with Otsuka

a guy that I watched Ken Shamrock and Guy Mezger bounce all around the fucking ring so I was like ehhhh when he couldnt finish him

I was wrong

Hendo got me saying it. I always doubted Silva. I thought Franklin had lost his edge the first fight and was scared the second. I made all the excuses I could. When he beat Hendo I accepted him as a champ. I still think he has had some easy match ups in the UFC. Here I go again. Nah the dude is a top p4p fighter and I know it.

Since the Chonan fight wasn't an option I went with his 2nd fight against Franklin.
