What a way to cap off a garbage PPV. Thiago Silva just robbed the MMA world of a should-be finish be standing back and looking gassed. I don't care how tired you are, when you've got an opponent in that position, you finish the damn fight. Where the fuck was the adrenaline Thiago? Well Thiago blew it and you know what, fuck him, it only hurts his progress. I am pissed about it b/c Thiago's last 60 seconds of that fight looked like something out of the 10th season of TUF. No pun intended on Rashad.
Happy to see Rashad get back to the wrestling though. Sometimes the only way to get better is to get your ass kicked and Rashad definitely took a lot from that loss to Machida. Rashad's a smart guy, well-rounded fighter, and I think he knows that if he's going to be a Champion for longer than a fight...he's gonna have to stay well-rounded. The old Rashad talked a ton of shit, show-boat, just wanted to dance and jab...but I like new, ready wrestle, veteran-smart Rashad better.
