Silva deserved to lose that first fight for acting like an idiot and understimating weidman..
But I was hoping he would that 2nd one...and imo he would've won.
Indeed it was really sad to see him go out this way...unlucky kick!
I don't believe he underestimated weidman at all..That was just bullshit hype to sell the 2nd fight..Silva took him very seriously in the first fight, he knew how tough weidman was..But silva's weakness has always been his boxing, even having trained with freddie roach..his boxing has still been mediocre..and only looked great against fighters who honestly had shit hands. That's coming from someone who has trained under a pro boxer, so I see things a little different than most i suppose..
I respect silva though, seemed like he might have done well in that fight, although..he would've still lost some way In some way shape or form... I believe he was past his prime.
Anyways yeah, just my opinion i suppose ;p definitely sad..and I was shocked when i watched that replay and seen how bad it actually was...damn..
prayers for silva.
