    Silva's proven that Maia has no business in there with him and I'd LOVE to see him finish the fight(I'm critical of him for that) but to call him a moron is just...well...moronic.

      Exactly . Anderson Silva is a clown. Plain and simple.

        You must be crazy to think that you'll be able to take Silva on the ground, so Maia should of trained his striking prior to the fight. From the looks of it, he didn't. Or he didn't train very well.
        He can train all he wants but it doesnt mean hes going to suddenly be able to hang with Anderson when striking isnt his area of expertise. Diego Sanchez trained striking leading up to his fight with Penn and that didnt work out so well either. Hendo took Anderson down so its not like a guy cant take Silva down at all but Hendo is a world class wrestler and Maia isnt so thats the huge difference. Im sure the heat and humidity isnt helping Maia with any of his takedown attempts either.

          Any know if Silva does this on all his fights? I'm a little blurry on it.
          Silva does bow in all his fights.

              No, it's not. It's calling him what he's being. Which is a moron, and on just about every MMA forum I'm on right now, people are all agreeing he's acting like a massive dick and just being a moron.

                His antics are over the top and yes, disrespectful. But not moronic.

                  This feels like the WWE when the popular face becomes the most hated heel.

                      Maia wasnt clowning him either. He was showing respect.

                        Got a ton of respect for Maia, and lost a ton of respect for Silva after that fight. You cant be considered the best fighter on the planet and then proceed to spend 2 or more rounds running in circles while doing nothing.

                          how is it possible to be the most exciting fighter and the most boring fighter at the same time?

                            I didn't say that. I just answered question.

                              I hope GSP kicks his ***.

                              I wish Maia was that aggressive in the previous rounds. I don't understand why he let up though.

                                That was absolutely pathetic.
