When will Australia get better UFC cards?

14 Jul 2012

He's incredible. He was asked at the presser if he'd like to test his skills against Bones and he emphatically said he didn't.

Live: UFC 148 Silva vs Sonnen II – live updates, blog

All in all great event. The undercard was a little underwhelming, but the top three fights were all excellent in their own way. Cote and Cung came to fight and put it all on the line, Forrest and Ortiz did what they could, with the fight finishing in the only way it could have- strangely. In the main event we had a hint of what could have been, with Sonnen dominating the first round but then we saw what we've seen for years and may see for a few more, Pure Silva lethal brilliance. Too good, too dangerous and a gracious champion. Well done Anderson Silva. Well done done UFC. Well done traveling Brazilians. Well done to the bartender who I have a date with. Benny

Round two It's allllll over. Sonnen shoot again for a double but can't get the takedown. After a little stand-up Sonnen shoots for a single but is stuffed. Sonnen looks fearful of the stand up and throws a wild spinning backfist, but misses and get's clipped and falls and on the ground he eats a flying knee. On the ground, Sonnen is peppered with strikes and soon there's a stoppage. TKO win for Silva. In the post fight press conference, Silva buries the hatchet somewhat but the crowd isn't having any of it, still booing and calling him Put. Silva calls Chael over and encourages the Brazilian fans to cheer him and then asks him to come around for a BBQ at is house, making reference to Sonnen suggesting Silva's wife should come over to Chael's house and cook him a steak.
