    Anderson’s triangle is a prime example of why you should never quit in life - you can be losing the whole time but it only takes 1 opportunity to win

      And then getting choked. You have to tap if you get choked. Its unfortunate for chael but silva outsmarted him you cant deny that. Maybe chael let his guard down all he had to do was sit on silva for 2 minutes and been world champ. But once youre fully cinched into a choke thats it.

      @@mastertrey4683 that’s the problem though was thinking the way you stated. “All he had to do was sit on Silva”
      Nope. All he had to do was prevent one of the greatest fighters ever with incredibly well rounded skills from doing what he does best. And that is, get the upper hand just when his opponent thinks they have either an opportunity to attack, or an opportunity to breathe. Do that with Silva one too many times and it will be over in a flash. Silva took more of a beating than I’ve ever seen him take, and by that many times over. But it just goes to show what a champion he is. No matter how tired he might have been, which he never was, or how disoriented he may have become, which never happened, or how desperate he might have gotten, which also never happened, he will either quickly end it, or wait for his opponent to make a few mistakes, and size that opportunity. Bruce Lee said it. “When my opponent expands, I contract, and when they contract, I expand, and when the opportunity comes, I don’t hit, it hits all on its own”. He was watching Sonnen’s face, very, very, carefully, and could read when his guard was down, in his mind is what I mean. Silva just casually, casually, slips that leg over, and locks in the triangle. Done. If there was ever a time when Anderson Silva used every ounce of power he had, it was right there with his legs, crushing Chanel. Incredible. Simply incredible.

    Still amazing to see years later. You could see Chael starting to gas out in top position in the final round -- sitting up and throwing slow, tired punches that allowed Anderson to pull his arm toward him and lock in the triangle. Unbelievable. Chael was up 40-34, 40-35, 40-36 on the scorecards entering the fifth.

      mathjoker You are correct, it is the jolt of the head that causes the most brain damage. Punches to the head where the head is help in place by the floor are just bruising the skin and bone. But with that said, the best punches are those from top where bottom is lifting their head up but gets caught on the way, jolting back down and then bouncing back up again after hitting the floor for two jolts on the brain.

    Anderson Silva is a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu we don't normally get to see it because he likes to strike. But that time he was beating in the first round. If that first punchy through hadn't been a little bit harder it would have knocked him out because it had him stumbling around as it was.

      @@ozzylepunknown551 I don’t know if I agree with that, Chael was a good fighter and fought the kind of fight he wanted to, but Silva was trying for submissions repeatedly throughout the fight too. I honestly think Silva wanted to beat him via sub the whole time and that’s why he didn’t offer much resistance to the takedowns. I doubt he intended to get punched in the head 300 times, but at the end of the day he won, and to say Silva isn’t a good fighter is just being disingenuous. The man is one of the GOATs.

      I bet it DOES. He promised his father on his death bed that he would be world champion, and he was 2 minutes away from it. He was reckless in those final moments, he only needed to coast it from there. Silva could do nothing to him from that position until Chael stupidly gifted him that triangle choke. I bet Chael doesn't live a day without regret for that. Quote from Chael: "I'd give EVERYTHING to be World Champion for one day"... Still doubt he's haunted? He is. I guarantee you.

    "I believe you." When Chael says that he's got the ref arguing that the fight is over because Chael tapped. Chael has explained he was in a daze, didn't know what happened, emotions running high and he couldn't remember tapping out. Imagine being less than 2 minutes from your dream, and all of a sudden you're being told you tapped out and you can't even remember it in that moment, and your response isn't anger but simply "I believe you."

      @@johnhutchinson9509 yeah, I was thinking, it only takes one small mistake and Silva ruins your career. I still don't understand how he won so many fights, to be honest, but fighting him is playing with fire while wearing gasoline-soaked underwear.

      He didn’t even have to stand with him the 5th round. He still coulda just taken him down and got out of Anderson’s full guard into half or side control and probably still would’ve won

      Thats what I have been saying. He got to aggressive the last round. But that tap was absolutely questionable.

    It’s crazy how sonnen never tired. He was literally throwing the entire time. Yeah sure not always big hard shots but man that is exhausting to keep that pace.
