I can't believe how poor Silva's striking is.

if Silva keeps this sloppy **** going, a basic counterpunch will knock him out.

Oh I remember Silva's striking from his last fight, which is why I had the balls to pick against him ... it's Edwards who's surprising me for the worse ... this fight is so bad, I can't believe it's so high up on the card ...

It's fights like these that makes me wish I still paid as much attention. If I saw either of these guys before picking, I never would have picked Silva. Hopefully I can get lucky.

I was feeling so confident, it felt like it was just a matter of time before Edwards caught him.  But now...damn.

@messiah, looks like you got your wish ... Silva on top with the whole 3rd to work ... either sub or he rides it out ... Edwards is too tired to do anything ...

Can we just say Conor McGregor won this fight and Rivas vs Rubio fight? Throw him a few OTN bonuses and be done with it.
