Anderson Silva vs Chael Sonnen 1 | FULL FIGHT

[@0074-u7l]

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

[@larrygadon.321]

Very well said brother.

[@sushantkeni8646]

100% Agree to this, even before round 5 after loosing 4 rounds he was responding the crowd and then he planned to choke him. Wow! And Chael is a savage!

[@jacek8889]

Cheal Sonnen tap out is a prime example of why you are fucked in life - you can be winning the whole time but it takes only one mistake to lose it all

[@dallasbagley]

Amen

@@jacek8889 What makes it even worse, is that he promised his dying father he would be Champ, but he never got there. Truth is, his Dad probably didn't care much either way. He loved his son no matter what.

[@SugarMilkbro]

I could not imagine spending 4 rounds in the cage with Anderson Silva, whooping his ass the whole time, and then tapping out. Heart break

[@mysteretsym]

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.

[@destroya3303]

But Chael is a loud mouth who deserves that kind of humbling defeat. Just like Conner deserved Khabib.

[@andrewhigdon8346]

@@mysteretsym 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.

@@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 blame his corner. They pumped him up and pushed him for a finish. If they had half a brain between the 4 cornermen, they'd have told him to chill out, stand back, and not try to be too aggressive or to finish. He had already undisputably won 4 rounds, that was a kamikaze strategy.

[@ogome2927]

olisk it prolly was his corners fault, but hey comes with the ego and confidence when ur whooping a guys ass for four rounds, again you should never do that but when it happens it happens

XD

[@cobecourtney900]

It’s both amazing that chael beat up Anderson for that long and it’s equally amazing Anderson pulled that shit out the bag. Fights like these is what makes this sport great.

[@DrewHumphrey18]

One of my favorite fights of all time

[@nathanking8180]

One of the best fights in ufc history, i remember watching this fight with my friends and family, the atmosphere inside the stadium and the atmosphere we created in our living room was electric, a night i will never forget, hella respect for both fighters.

[@areyalive18]

The best middleweight fight in history

[@andrewg4553]

At the end Silva bowed to Sonnen admitting "You still beat my ass but not enough to take my belt!!!" LOL!!!!😂😂😂😂😂

[@nilobaranda]

And most fighters would've tried to stop that flattering gesture "Aw c'mon man, stand up, you dont have to do that, dis is embarrassing dude..." But Chael let him.

[@joshuastam7704]

NO..

[@Stazmanian]

@@nilobaranda ofc. He couldve won that if there was no tap. How upset could he have been. I cant even imagine.

Brent Legaspi if he didn’t tap, he could’ve been inside a box right now

I watched this live and truly was devastated. This fight really was a turning point for me from casual to a hardcore mma fan....

[@Yeldineyintun]

@Wes Braz is that really so hard to believe?

[@equalist6282]

You are still a casual ..A hardcore fan is one who does the sport also..Like us we train everyday and we look up to fighters in the UFC ..You are just a dreamer and still a casual ..

So lucky to have seen this live!! Man, it’s exactly as I remembered.

[@kevriley3255]

I thought Anderson's gesture of humility and respect to Chael post fight was one of, if not THE most heartfelt, genuine sporting moments out there. True gladiators.

[@briansmith6954]

He's always so humble.

[@majorawol]

Rampage vs Ninja Rua at the end.

[@jarredlewis8951]

I wish Silva would have put his foot on his neck. All the prefight talk. Tap or die. talk now

@@jarredlewis8951 exactly. Or his knee on his neck. Karma always comes back around to people who play with fire

I hope that moment is immortalized in sports history, like I think that should live on beyond our days.
