all these headlines that say it was an "embarrassing" fight go way too far.
silva did attack. leites just kept falling on his back.
and it looks like silva wanted the fight to go the distance so he could test his own endurance. he's playing golf right now...competing with himself, testing his own limits.
and sure silva showboats, but that's just what the great ones do when they're in the groove. i love these reporters who've never been in a fight their whole lives...and who expect all pro fighters to be alter-boys in the ring/octagon.
post-fight, silva is a totally different dude than pre or during.
after the fight he can be respectful and humble, but in the middle of it...his mind is naturally in a different state.
