Will Anderson Silva Win Back His Middleweight Title?

Longest Reigning Champ In UFC History Anderson Silva picture belongs to http://www.fadedindustry.com

I have bashed the guy so many times but anyone who respects the sport of MMA has to respect what Anderson Silva has accomplished.

When he walked into UFC 162 it was a nightmare matchup for him on paper, the 1st round was all Weidman but Anderson came out to start round 2 firing away leg kicks throwing Weidman's timing off.

Chris Weidman looked absolutely clueless in round 2 until Anderson Silva started clowning around trying to get him to leave an opening.

Anderson always finds a way to make better fighters look ridiculous in there which is what made him a legend, UFC 162 was your classic example of what can happen when your not ready.

Anderson showed he was much better on the feet and could have taken Weidman apart, its frustrating that he fought the way he did instead of showcasing his dominance in the Middleweight division.

Imagine being that great that people cannot accept 1 loss in 17 UFC fights? Think about that fact that most of those fights were title fights and he finishes his opponents more times than not.

People are claiming Anderson threw the fight which is another example of how great he really is, even his own manager Ed Soares said if he was going to throw the fight he would have tapped in round 1 instead of getting knocked out to the point where his eyes rolled to the back of his head.

You cannot take anything away from Chris Weidman because Anderson Silva has used the same style so many times and he was the one guy who made him pay.

Its one thing to let Chael Sonnen try to knock you out but when you do it with a guy like Chris Weidman you will fall, this will create one of the biggest rematches in the business.

Anderson Silva is the Babe Ruth of MMA, he has proved it so many times and I feel he will dominate the rematch to once again be the UFC Middleweight champion.

I love Chris Weidman I'm all for him having a long run but you have to be realistic and its hard to believe Anderson Silva won't take him apart when they meet for the 2nd time.

The rematch will be even bigger than UFC 148 if that is even possible, expect the UFC to once again shatter gate records in 2013 as we are headed for one of the biggest years in MMA.

Again I've bashed the guy so many times but I really felt bad for Anderson Silva after UFC 162, it really sucks to see a legend fall but knowing him I'm sure he will get back up.
