So it doesnt change the fact that he'll make more than he ever made in a rematch, and him saying his keys to victory was Weidman leaving with his hands raised.....
Silva did what was best for the business and Dana, Weidman is a great fighter and future star, Silva wont be around long if Silva destroyed him like he could have flipped the switch and did so at any moment, he could have buried a potential future UFC sat before his career got off the ground, now when Silva demolishes him in a rematch, Weidman will still be known as the man who not only beat but ko the great Silva, win win for all parties Dana included, use your brain people, there was a reason for the Silva is gonna lose rhetoric before the fight, who the fukk is Weidman to the GOAT Silva to have that message constantly conveyed beforehand......shyt was more scripted than a Top Rank match, like The coli has stated in various threads MMA was dead a Silva loss has people talking again about the UFC, that hasnt happened since Brock, mission accomplished
Since when does Dana forces people to fight, we have been waiting like 3 years for a Silva GSP match,promise after promise and all, what makes you think its a foregone conclusion that Silva would take his shot Jones and vice versa
If ur gonna talk money, what would have been best for the business and for Silva would have been to win that fight and do the fight with Jones. What good is it for the UFC to have a dude who has never lost in the UFC and does big PPV #''s get knocked the fukk out tryin to clown somebody? Trust me, the last thing the UFC wanted was to see somebody who casual fans have never hard of until 2 weeks ago knock out Anderson.
And since when is the UFC or MMA dead? They are doin bigger numbers consistently and have way more exposure now than they ever have before. Fox Sports 1 is gonna be centered around the UFC. Way more people would have been interested in and talkin about Jones-Silva than they will for the Weidman rematch. Stop coppin pleas for dude. He tried to clown and got caught. It happens
