There has been a lot of buzz left from Silva/Sonnen 2 and
frankly, I don’t understand why. I sincerely doubt Anderson was greasing, he
was nervous, and whatever small amount of Vaseline he was able to apply seemed
irrelevant as Sonnen took him down in under 10 seconds. The short grabbing was
strange but had no effect on the outcome. Next came the knee and the “bad
intentions” behind it. I’m sorry, but this is MMA, there are no good intentions,
the object is to incapacitate the other. “It was too close to the head of a
downed opponent,” so what if it was close, the most accurate striker in MMA put
his knee where he wanted it. Honestly, I think we all wanted a more exciting
fight and right now, after two years of build-up, we’re all a little
disappointed that we didn’t get five rounds of fireworks.
