Great doc, and I'm happy to see that he's doing well. Thiago Silva will always be remembered as an absolute killer in the cage!
Another great video from the channel that got me interested in MMA beyond just playing UFC games. ππΌ
Yeah we know the ufc (Dana) is very against domestic violence right?
Thiago silva was a beast
When this guy fought brandon vera it was funny as shet. He was slapping him around, playing the bongo on his head when had him shoved in the corner of the cage lol. 30 seconds left in the third round, adjusted brandon veras nose to a 45degree angle. This fight is part of thiagos legacy. Still talking about it 20 years later lol
You need to call this channel MMA depression. Do you ever put out any happy stories?
Yeah, if I offered you $50,000 and all you had to do was go for a month without smoking weed and then fight a monster at the end of it you forgot to add π that guy is an idiot
Of course, Dana White reinstated Silva. Heβs down with battering women.πππππ
"He BaRrIcAdEd HiMsElF iNsIdE hIs HoMe." I barricade myself inside my home every single day.
Thiago had that aura that he would kill his opponent if there weren't any referee in there. You can see in the dude's eyese he was a killer that's trying to be a fighter.
Edit: And when he got out of prison. He looked like a changed guy that's trying to be that killer again.
As someone that watched the sport for a long time, he's one of those intriguing characters.
Lets get this man in the GFL π
Opiates and benzos fine… But we're going to suspend you for marijuana metabolite… Unfortunate
I miss The Golden Era of Mmaβ¦.Chiago was a scary dude I loved his fight with Jardine.
Thiago looks like the guy that would do the stuff he did
I remember when him and machida fought the battle of the undefeated.
CTE
Thiago was for sure a favorite fighter of mine growing up, it was sad to see his downfall
