YOU'RE OFF THE FORCE WILDMAN, TURN IN YOUR BELT
Bringing up sherdog quotes is almost as bad as quoting people from youtube comments.
Then Weidman shows up at Belator as the "REAL World Champion"

Herb Dean teabag.
Good life lesson, I just thought it was crazy
Maybe threw the fight just by not taking it seriously? *shrugs* Only Anderson knows.
yup! freaking insane. I mean, Floyd isn't the norm of course, he makes way more than anybody else. But less known names makes more than $24k lol

Yeah, the HW division in the UFC was garbage during Fedor's run. Timmeh and Arlovski fought each other what felt like 15 times during that era because there were no other HW's in the UFC worth watching.

Sports bribery in Nevada = 5 years
Racketeering in Nevada = 20 years
That's if the State takes the case. If he made the bets out-of-state, that would open up more serious federal charges, like federal racketeering, and wire fraud (if he used a telephone or the internet at any time during the conspiracy.) Wire fraud alone can net you 20 years.
For a fighter, that's a lifetime.
The NSAC also has the capacity to enforce a ban on the fighter. Such bans are for a minimum of three years up to a lifetime ban from the sport. They would also seize his purse for the fight.
Think about the billions of dollars generated by sporting events and sports books in Nevada. A significant portion of the whole economy of the State of Nevada is at risk if the betting public and the "superbooks" don't believe in the legitimacy of the regulatory process.
...and anyone going to prison for such a thing may find himself in real mortal danger of retribution by less-reputable people who run illegal books as well. It doesn't take a whole lot to get some lifer to agree to shank a guy in prison for a mob payoff.
To think that a multi-millionaire fighter like Anderson Silva, with such high-profile corp. sponsors, would engage in such a thing, with such serious repercussions, and do it in such a way that diminishes his legacy, is silly.

Weidman/Munoz 2: The Quickening
Weidman/Munoz 2: The Quickening
There was one point where a guy, Eilers, got a shot at Arlovski after a loss. It was super shallow back then.

Wiedman seems like a down to earth, respectful guy
Silva dodged the rematch question so fucking hard

UFC Facebook.
I think Weidman stopped it early, Silva was obviously still aware and trying to take Herb down.
Looks more like an NWO run-in and stomp down.
Most people love to talk shit about Pride and Fedor needlessly, Pride had some shady dealings sometimes(that's what happens when the Yakuza is involved) but the vast majority of the time it was completely legit. Fedor is still by far the greatest HW of all time and one of the greatest of all time period.
Anderson lost twice in Pride, Chuck came over to Pride and got destroyed by Rampage, Rampage came over and destroyed Chuck yet again in the UFC, Shogun dominated the UFC's Machida twice, Big Nog submitted Silvia, etc. List goes on.
Fair enough. Tonight just seemed weird to me. The more I think about it the more I think my sentiments actually resonate with the earlier comment where someone said "maybe he threw it by not taking the fight seriously."
I know Silva typically does a certain degree of trolling during a fight but tonight he seemed exceptionally lazy. Add his post-fight speech about how he isn't interested in a rematch and that he has been looking forward to retirement, and his shitty pay, just seemed plausible that something fishy happened tonight. Like others said, maybe he was just giving Dana White the middle finger.
But like I said before, what the hell do I know.
but he said he didn't want the rematch when he was interviewed in the cage

"I really feel like this guy who's dedicated his life to a sport took a brutal punch just to troll it."
Makes sense.

Uncle Dana just called you guys creeps and weirdos.
If you have to ask yourself if he's talking about you, then yes, he is talking about you.

wait, did he actually say MMA GAF by name?
What do you think?
He said that creeps and weirdos were trying to discredit Silva and say that he was never that great.
Won't happen until Dana signs a fat fucking check.
