UFC 148 : Silva Vs. Sonnen

[ZootedGranny]

I was rooting for Sonnen, but that spinning backfist has to be one of the worst ideas I've seen in the octagon.

Yeah, and then he slips like a damn cow on ice, lol.

Sonnen showed in the 1st round that he's capable of dominating a healthy Silva. Silva's takedown defense was a gazzilion times better, though. I honestly don't know how to feel about this fight. It was flukey that Sonnen slipped, but it wasn't flukey that Silva defended against the two takedown attempts in the second round. If Sonnen can't take him down, he doesn't stand a chance.

All I know is that I'm completely unsatisfied with the fight.
