he just wants his fighters to fight not to much to ask for
Nah then get in there AND FIGHT YOURSELF if your gonna criticize fighters
@@raulcelaya9410he's right that's like workers not working
@@raulcelaya9410if you're not gonne fight, then don't sign up for ufc
@@cupcakeenjoyer8425there’s good work and bad work. Anyone who isn’t a retard will try to work smarter and not harder. Fighters are not dumb animals that just are there solely for the UFC’s profit and fan’s entertainment. They’re trying to provide for their families while suffering the least damage.
@@omarpip8641That is such a wild over simplification of fighting. Anderson Silva has a particular style like every other elite fighter. He wanted Maia to commit so he could counter punch, and Maia wanted to take him down and submit him with grappling. Dana is out of line here. Anderson Silva signed the contract, made the weight, made the walk, and fought. That’s his job. He did it. Dana White had an amateur background in boxing and has been in the fight business for a long time. He knows better than that. Silva wasn’t in the ring himself there. His opponent has a say in what happens as well. It’s much easier said than done.
for once i agree with dana white
Nah y’all shouldn’t hate Dana white
I thought that the first two rounds of the fight were good. Silva showed extreme talent, but by round 3 he lost his speed and power from excess movement spent on dodging and clowning around resulting in a five round run around the octagon. I'm just saddened because Silva had great style and amazing striking for the start of the fight...then he just let it go.
Yea
I don't think he gives a shit :)
He won anyway
LMFAO. He dominated that fight. You’re a sore loser.
A win is a win
i saw the fight and the problem was the guy he was fighting wasnt on his level, i can imagine the guys purse as well being a complete JOKE, its whites fault for making a awful opponent for silva imo
mayweather has had fights where he has completely outclassed his opponent and he has sold like over a million ppv buys doing it, i say again, the problem was the opponent
Machinist That's a ridiculous statement. Demian Maia may have been the underdog, but nobody can say 'he wasn't on his (Silva's) level'. Maia is incredibly skilled and if you noticed even Silva was afraid to go to the ground since he wouldn't play with him when he was on his back. All it would have taken is Maia to get his hands on Silva just one time while they were on the ground and still dry for the outcome to have been different. Many would say Chris Weidman wasn't on Silva's level too and all it took was one punch to the face while Silva's was doing his head bobbing nonsense to make Weidman the champ. The environment was also in Silva's favor. It was outdoors and extremely humid and didn't take very long for them to be soaked and slippery in sweat, which is extremely detrimental to an expert submission fighter like Maia. If fighters only fought other fighters that were considered to be 'on the same level' then there would be no such thing as an underdog and we wouldn't never get to see awesome upsets like GSP vs Serra
Damian Maia had a broken nose and a closed eye and yet it was Anderson Silva that got the warning for running away with the whole crowd booing him.
Maybe they weren't on a level, but at the level that silva is at he should have known how to behave. Not be a fucking asshole. He has no need to
Let’s put Dana in the ring with Anderson, I guarantee Dana would be running around too
@Biswalt You are correct but the round by round punch count isn't what is being questioned after the fight, the scores reflect that.
Amazing... Anderson showed mercy on this poor kid it was obvious the guy was badly damaged. An infant could see Andy didn't want to end the fellow Brazilian's career.
Mercy?!?! What fight did you watch? He was obviously trying to humiliate Maia.
Somehow I could see Silva wasn`t into that fight from the first minute. The guy`s still my favourite fighter but sometimes he just underperforms badly.
This rant was much more entertaining than the fight itself.
Greatest middle-weight fighter ever, of that I believe there is little doubt. Despite this he has delivered 3 consecutive snoozefests: #1 Patrick Cote-being extremely passive and looking to counter #2 Thalies Leites-absolute snoozefest #3 Maia-beautiful show of art 1st & 2nd round, the rest was crap..what i found interesting was the continual taunts by silva for maia to engage, but when he did so in desperation in the later rounds Silva just backed off instead of staying in the pocket. Thoughts?
Agreed
-ufc fan 12 years later
This fight was miles better then Isreal vs Romero and Dana did not crucify isreal who literally scared to engage where he most was supposedly strengths lies which was his stand-up, we say isreal run away fearing behind the ref at times in the fight yet they blamed the lack of action on challenger
Its abt the disrespect he showed
Israel wasn't like silva showboating and making it last 5 rounds when he could've finished. Know the difference idiot
@Axel223 you seem to forget that anderson has very good takedown defense. now im not saying hes gonna block every takedown but hed defend long enough hed KO him easy.
FaZe Jev crazy seeing you here
Wtf jev doin here
Well this caught me by surprise
Yo jev
Lmao first time I'm seeing a comment reply to someone but thats due to old YT comments and whatnot breaking with new YT, also Jev's a UFC fan so makes sense.
Wow just comes to show that the fighters run this show!
@dohertyz I agree. Dana is fantastic at what he does.
@sinhaserpente: Also, he got his belt ("He" as in Silva) when he was just 18 years old.
Also, he has a black belt in: Tae Kwon Do, Judo, and BJJ. He also has a yellow belt in Capoeira. Although I didn't really need to tell you that.
Is there a clip of what Silva did? I didn't see it.
@SeanSean128 Agree, pit him against GSP and make it worth watching Silva... this last "performance" wasn't a fight. Partly, I think, because both fighters were not interested in the action, and Silva was trying to avoid an injury, for future potential fights.
He basically just threw a couple of jabs and then ran away for the rest of the round.
Fuck demian maia and his ground shit
@@FOXSnakeEater you responded to a 7 yr old comment dude shut the fuck up
Low kicks , spin kicks , knees kicks take down defense ... I mean did u watch the full fight ? 😂😂😂 silva was just playing Damian’s mind . Because Demian said before the fight that he would win by submission easily and put Anderson to sleep , well we saw what happen
@@Americantpa facts
Im from the future and there are a couple of title fights that are actually boring and makes this fight look crazy exciting and dana has nothing to say on these fights...hes a hypocrite
I kinda agree, i mean no one can deny that Anderson could have destroyed this guy in the first round, but for some reason he chose not to....
Silva doesn't have to prove anything to anyone anymore, but it would be nice for him to give fans what they want, since he can easily do it.
@rickbanks03 Just because a fights are exciting and he doesn't dance and put on a novela, doesnt mean his fights suck, it means that he's a great wrestler that no one can stop.
@crazykorean2268 Yeah Idk what was up with Silva in this one. Hes so respecful and humble and this fight his ego was sky rocketed. I hope he goes back to normal and gives the fans some type of apology for his actions.
Remember when the UFC didn't have rules or weight classes?
A one-night openweight tournament, vintage-style. That's what Dana does to punish Silva. Let him prove himself against the best fighters in other weight classes.
dana what a hypocrite , didnt complain about rose fight or israel
Anderson Silva has the right to preform like this. He's dominating his division and got no real threat to his title. Unless Dana starts bringing in (even more) talent, Silva can continue to preform like he did in that match. I, as a pretty new fan of MMA, do not feel disrespected by his actions, instead, I have become an even bigger fan of the sport.
One of the dumbest comments on CZcams
Well we saw how that worked against Weidman.
I'd like to watch Silva vs Belfort push through first before we go to GSP-Silva. Silva was being cocky/disrespectful but he didn't finish off Maia. I think it was weird..like he's suddenly mentally not in the game.
I have yet to see Dana berate fighters that do nothing but lay and pray.
GSP would still get his asswhooped by Silva though. When he said he doesn't want to see Silva fight GSP, he was really just protecting St. Peirre.
St Pierre would clap Silvas cheeks
@@momsspaghetti7729 No.
@@DonVerchi700as Gsp with an alien belly
lets be real here. as disappointed as dana is, and believe me he should be, setting up two fighters like gsp vs silva is like setting up pacquiao vs mayweather. it's bound to be one of the biggest events of all time and the fight will be set up sometime in the near future.
didnt know what all this fuzz was about so i decided to watch the fight. Damn Silva... what are u doing. All Dana wants is for his fighters to fucking fight, at least have the audacity to perform, considering this is their living.
I saw UFC 112 last weekend for the first time, and it Silva cracked me up, with his fancy dance moves, i mean this was almost like the Movie "Monkey Kung Fu".. LOL!
Dana could make it up to the fans by agreeing to let Lesnar fight Fedor :)!!!
Dana White must of ben super happy when Chris Weidman came thru! haha
Googlevideo and you'll find it.
It was amazing the first 2 rounds, seemed like a practice with a kid.
But the more it went, the more he just avoided Maia (who was pratically beaten up and had a swollen eye by this moment)
The boring comes out of maia
He is the most boring fighter of all times
It seems that when Dana White starts to have someone under his skin he just puts maia to fight him
He did the same to tyron woodley
"Any Questions?! Or can I go home?!"
thats why i cant wait for july 7th. Sonnen is the only person in the UFC not afraid to fight him and actually go at him. and i hope Sonnen pounds him like he did in the first fight.
@chain8899 remember that this is not only a sport is also a spectacle and the reason why you watch is for the spectacular knock outs and amazing kicks out of this world submissions and prefight taunting s etc and that and more is what we get out of fighters like silva,wanderlei bj penn jason miller ..etc and if you don`t like it there is always bjj,greco judo etc ..competition who they do act like traditional martial artist in a safe predictable environment
Undeniably it was helluva show but only until the mid of 3rd round. I don't know what happened to the respectful guy that faced Franklin twice. I would guess that his behavior is due to some unspoken of frictions with Dana and maybe Silvas wishes of whom to fight.
@ButterTheKing ok...lol... u got me there... but with the exception of him.. Which he was supposed to fight him until Belfort pulled out... I personally would love to see either Silva vs. Gsp or SIlva vs. Machida
@RasOye i thought silva vs. GSP was coming..who the hell is that guy ur talking about
Dana is more about the business than the art form and the skill of the fighters. Many Professional fighters throughout history showboated. If you watch some of the best boxers of all time, they would show boat and taunt their opponents. Watch Sugar ray Leonard fights, Muhammed Ali in the ring, and many others. At one time or another almost every fighter show boated or taunted their opponent, in or out of the ring, it can be a strategy and also good entertainment. It was working for him. HE WON!
Do you still have this opinion?
What fight was this?
watch it, the full fight is uploaded in 6 parts
I wanna see Silva v. Toney. Toney will stand with him. May have some trouble dealing with his Muy Thai though. If Toney gets inside though, it's "lights out" for Silva.
well then Dana...go Duke it out with Silva. Show him who's boss! RIP.
@residualrevenge I dont think you understand. Silva felt disrespected and felt like he should humiliate this guy and he did. Maya did nat land a single puch and left with a busted face. I assure you that Silva would never this to GSP, because he respects GSP because GSP respects fighters..it also seem s that Silva is bored of the opponents they are putting him with
livin on 240 welcome to my life
I'm suprised Dana didn't act like this after the Shields GSP fight.
It was sooo funny though. I've never laughed so hard during a main event. I've never seen someone get so embarrassed in a fight. Child's play!
this silva vs mai fight (which i think silva fought smart and should continue playing with his fighters until dana finds someone to actually fight him instead of
i cryied afer round 4 its sad
That was some serious crazy in 4th/5th round, but i really don't think Dana or anyone else has the right tell fighters how they should or shouldn't fight his/her opponents. Easiest solution is to give silva a competitive opponent...
@crazykorean2268 How did you watch the fight online?
he shot his eyes close on the freethrow
what fight was this? anderson vs. who?
i love to look at this video when ever people hype anderson silva as the GOAT:) This disasterous fight happened no matter what the UFC says about Silva:)
thats pretty much what ya gotta do to beat him. he ground and pounded him the whole fight. and there was a couple times he caught him with some shots on their feet. Silva's only weakness is wrestling, and in order to beat him you gotta exploit his weakness.
@vergil1021: Point being? S'was Matt Serra, too, right?
I don't know if this is an unpopular opinion or not but Chael Sonnen saved Anderson Silva's career and legacy
I hope Silva still fights GSP and GSP whips that butt!
because he runs the company, and the ufc 112 middleweight title fight silva vs. maia was hugely disappoiting, hence hurting the company and the sport he has done his share to build. im guessing thats why
id still like to see him fight gsp. Silva vs gsp would probably be one of the biggest pay per views ever. You have gsp one of the pound for pound best in the sport (the good guy) and Silva another pound for pound best guy (the bad guy). It has the makings of another Foreman Ali rumble in the jungle.
@sinhaserpente: And what does having a black belt in BJJ have to do with being taken down? If he takes him down, so what? That doesn't mean he automatically wins. It didn't help Dan Henderson, did it? And, to be honest, I don't know who is going to win.
@PierceScott i know... im very disappointed in anderson silva. i look up to this guy so much. i lost all the respect for him now... now GSP is my #1 fighter, humble, great, and i know GSP doesnt do that boring shit! im so mad!
It's good because Silva is sitting right next to Mr.White out of the camera frame
I think he sounds like Dana White
Anderson Silva defending his title sixth consecutive times and being undefeated in the UFC is just an amazing feat whether you like it or not. If Anderson Silva is able to fuck around the whole 5 rounds against one of the best Damian Maia, it shows you how scary Silva is and that he is on completely different level. Personally, I see no one even being close to beating Silva at middleweight.
@HevokSin He doesn't care what you think, Silva doesn't lay on his opponents for 25 mins and get win by decision
@BAMSK33Z Watch the UFC 112 main event between Anderson Silva vs Demian Maia.
silva was tired from clowning so much. he couldve finished him early but he didnt realise he hadnt been in the octagon for a while and couldnt perform as well in the end, thats why he stopped clowning because he was tired but i do agree that he shoulve finished it when he couldve. I wanted to see him and GSP but now he gives Dana another excuse not to make that fight.
So this means Mayweather wouldn't have a chance with Dana!
Gonne leave this comment to remind everyone of how much a bad ass Anderson Silva was! 👌
@fordgt550: Have you ever been in a submission hold like that? Didn't think so.
Jon Jones is the p4p best fighter in the world. Enough said.
@10oner hyping up chumps who havent beaten anyone) is overshadowing the fact that penn out struck edgar 2 to 1 and stuffed 12 out of 13 of edgars takedowns then lost a 50-45 unanimous descision not to mention none of edgar punches did any damage...look at the uppercuts and hooks edgar got in the clinch in round 1 and 2 and the continuous jab that never missed throughout the entire fight
@PierceScott Yeah but really the only way for Dana to make this up to the fans would be to have GSP and Anderson Silva fight, wouldnt you say?
If it is such an embarrassment perhaps Dana should find an opponent worthy of Andersen's skill.
It's not a black and white thing. It's a respect for the sport thing. It's not boxing, that's why people actually watch it.
@LAreed9449 dana has already said hes re-thinking of making silva vs gsp. first silva has to beat sonnen and wait to see vitor belfort fight than if vitor wins silva has to fight him, gsp fights in december.
lol obviously dana doesnt want silva vs gsp to happen the schedule is to stacked.
first time i like what dana white says
i think we all learned a lesson from this one don't talk shit to somone you can't beat
If the Maia fight was the reason that GSP and Silva didn’t fight then SMDH. Silva was only proving that Maia wasn’t on his level
You KNOW it's TRUE!!!
Crazy how everyone show boats now… and throw call kicks uncle Dana
@SilentCrayonZ I didn't see it. What did he actually do that was so bad? Show boating?
@ronburgondy12 dude really... Anderson Silva is one of the classiest fighters in all of MMA.
12 years had pass and we still don't know why Silva fought that way
that was a year ago today, i remember that fight, it was shit.
i didn't get to see 112 what happen the he got mad/embarrassed?
Give him GSP - simple.
Stop giving him sparring partners - give him a fighter that can perform at his level
Silva is the best. Bring on fedor.
what Anderson did was completely unproffesional. I think he got his punishment in terms of fans booing and not recieving the belt in the way he should. We all make mmistakes. He learnt his lesson and aplogized after the game. Just let it go Dana.
It's the money. Period.
i didnt see the fight, what did silva do
Sonnen didnt do anything but lay on him the first fight
Dana white never escapes an opportunity to make an issue about him. Personally, who gives a shit if Dana was embarrassed??? Once again the UFC put an apponent in front of Anderson Silva that they knew would not stand with him and expected the fight of the year. Did they honestly not learn anything from Silva vs Thales Leites?
till Weidman came into the picture
@pokerslut530 what did Anderson Silva DO
I can't think of a better President /representative of a company than Dana White.
