    Default Anderson Silva Sparring at the Wild Card

    Sorry if this has been posted before but it was new to me, and maybe will be new to others as well.

    Anderson looks good!

    Agreed, he looked like at every opportunity he was trying to give him a right good dig. Especially in the last minute or so that huge right hand he threw at Anderson when he wasnt taking any of that sort of punishment himself LOL!

    It did make me laugh, you could tell Silva wasnt going in there to destroy him which obviously pissed matey off being humiliated like that!

    Anderson uses his lead hand very effectively as a range finder. Notice the way he changes his angles during combinations, very hard thing to defend against. His ring craft works wonders for him in the cage.

    As for the other guy. Hes probably been paid to be a sparring partner and if you want to earn your wage and you want to be hired again you've got to make it worth while.

    Let's not forget that a middleweight in boxing is much lighter than a middleweight in MMA.
