It just goes to show the deceptive power of Anderson Silva. He had incredible precision with his strikes, which translated to power. Knocking out Chris Leben in less than a minute is no small feat.

People joking about Silva, remember that the sport's level is where it is because Silva showed the level it could be at. He made fighters dream of higher performances and the audience expect better fights. He was a division King before division kings was even a thing. No one would say "he has a flaw in his game which people can explore". He was so good that he began to play with his food in the ring so he could have some fun.

6:22 I expected any movement, except for that flying backhand kick with the other foot hooked... wow 6:27 he left him doing the mass+velocity+force calculations, jeez

Never realized how good Yoels KO 3:40 was calculated. Chris feints the take down Yoel bites then he actually shoots in just to eat a knee

I think we forget how scary Anderson was in his prime!!! The game change and the fighters are better today !! I know that.
