ive seen all 11 of his last fights, hes 40, time to retire. Remember Pride? Its gone because of rigged fights.
If he didn't dive, good riddance but his last loss was a definite dive in Pride. Don't act like corruption doesn't dictate some of these fights... Do you think we live in an honest world? lol
LoL this is how awful information gets spread, as someone who followed pride since I was in high school in 2002 and could watch thanks to purchasing one of those hacked directv boxes that used to be readily available cheaply and could watch the ppv's. Pride died because of yakuza ties, the national channel that aired it in japan fuji tv then dropped them after the headlines made its way into a japanese news paper.
Pride had some works early on where it was more of a prowrestling mma promotion in early 2000 and prior. If any other fights were considered a work, it was purely speculation, and they would have involved japanese wrestlers not actual elite mma fighters. They were not working fights early on for the benefit of foreign fighters, it was for home town heros.
Silva did this every fight, and every fight he does this against weak strikers like bonnar and comes back and wins he is pegged by fans as the GOAT, so when he does it one to many times and is on the opposite end, it had to be a work. Chael sonnen dropped him, he has like all but very few humans a KO button right on the chin if hit perfectly.
