Dana had a major stroke when he realized the amount of money he just lost out on for the superfights.
Fedor also beat a lot of his top opponents at their own game whereas Silva was scared shitless to go to the ground with Maia, Sonnen and started the stand up clown show here as well to try to keep it on the feet with Weidman only it backfired.
Silva is a great fighter(one of the greatest) and great to watch but the hespect level is nowhere near as high with him.

do not tempt fate do not contrain Wonder Woman's thighs do not do not
Its not like he was compeltely outclassed.
If anything id say Silva lost....not that Weidman won(if that makes sense)

Mousasi should be a real threat at 185lbs. Nothing but respect for Anderson Silva. He has done this before, just never paid the price because his division is notorious for weak strikers. All it takes is 1 punch.

Love when Dana swears at press conferences
When the fight ended I was instantly "cockyest cock of all cocks" for anderson silva.
But after the speech and remembering all the interviews saying about how much he hated UFC direction and dindn't wanted to fight John Jonnes and all that stuff (specialy the "i hate the 'show' part of the sport" from Like Water documentary) I am starting to think that Anderson trew the fight not because he was payed, but because he wanted to TROLL Dana White saying that he does whatever he wants.
John Jonnes ? Nope .. not the greatest fighter anymore
GSP ? Nope .. the rematch needs to be done first.
And now he will get BIG MONEY for the rematch because he said to the interviewer that he don't want to do the rematch.
What I am saying is ... a diferent kind of cocky =P

Dominate the best HW division in the world at the time for six years.

Shame.
Shame.
Nice you can watch the press conference on iPhone after updating the app
Dana wanted money.
she had an injury, she pulled out of TUF too
Cat injured her knee pretty severely and had to have surgery.

lol srs, isn't Mayweather making like +$40 million a fight?
Correct
yup. there was a money breakdown...not counting the 8 week training camp and press conferences and what not...but per minute in the ring, Mayweather was making more than a million dollars lol
It was like a $170,000 per punch or something haha

You don't throw a fight by getting KO'ed and absorbing that kind of head trauma.
It's his fault. He talks so much shit about boxing but the ufc got too greedy and kept squeezing their champions with joke fights instead of putting the Anderson and Jones fight on over the freakin jones vs sonnen crap.

Does dana blink this much on a regular basis?
Dont think we could call this a spectacular knockout though.
Dana almost fainted twice, probably first time when Anderson got taken down, and the second time when Anderson actually fell.
I never watched a post-fight UFC conference before. I watch the fights regularly (and read these threads - posts 900-1100 are great in this one!) though. This conference is pretty great viewing, for someone who has nothing invested in the content.

The conferences are usually pretty good, even when they are train wrecks lol
Dana clowned him (and didn't get KO'd)

Silva vs Overeem was a bigger upset based on the betting line
Lots of people forget that fucking Timmeh was dominate in the UFC during Fedor's run. UFC had a horrible HW division at the time.
