b. nog needs to retire with this win. for real, he can't end it any better than with a final win in brazil of all places. he was so flat footed and zombie-esque that i was amazed he pulled it off - du looks like a 60 year old whose been run over by a tank. i love him, but its time to call it a day.

So, I'm curious.. what is a good strategy when Silva puts his hands down and gets into that zone where he dodges punches.. Kick to the body?

Feints. Key to beating anyone who relies on head movement to defend.

Agreed. However the window of opportunity to do that passed. He should've announced it in the Octagon and gone out like Lytle did, on top.

Man this guy is just cheating at this point. How in the hell are you supposed to fucking win!?

You've been playing too many vidyagames.

Did you plug a DS3 into the tv when you watched the fight?
