Anyone surprised?

Could there be any one person surprised by Anderson Silva’s dismantling of James Irvin?  I almost came on here and posted a prediction of Irvin by knockout in the first ten seconds, cuz if he was going to win he had one chance to do it, the first punch.  If the fight went on past that he wouldn’t last more than a minute.

James Irvin is a stud for preparing for this fight with all of his heart and soul, just a rough landing and bad timing.

Brandon Vera remains my favorite fighter in the UFC despite three poor showings in a row since tugging at my heart strings by taking a year off.  Vera looked good at 205lb and has never been in the best shape for his fights.  He is just simply a bad ass who likes to fight.  He looked hesitant in his 205lb debut, but will be fine in the future at any weight.  I’d honestly like to see him fight Anderson Silva next at 205lb.  That would be one heck of a muay thai fight.

Affliction Banned vs. UFC Silva vs Irvin July 19th. What will you do?
