Want to feel old? Anderson Silva will be 50 years old next year.

[blaseblase]

Yep, that is definetly true too. My point is that even if we consider those 15-18 years it's still long ago. He lost to Weidman over 10 yrs ago lol! Insane!

Now with your perspective it makes me feel even older lol

Not that insane when you consider all the title reigns we've seen since then. The Weidman era. Rockhold. Bisping. GSP. Whittaker. Izzy. Pereira. Izzy again. Strickland. And now DDP. We've gone through twice as many champions as the pre-Silva era.

SILVA = REAL GOAT​

Oh my god. I had to look it up. Oh my god.

I watched it live on Spike. I didn't know either well but heard Leben was tough, then I watched this Anderson guy commit sanctioned, televised, murder and then smile and dance.

I knew Anderson was gonna whup him. I just didnt think it would be that fast.

Sage Northcutt was interviewed by Ariel Helwani recently, and called him "Ariel" and not "Mr. Helwani". Made me feel old.

[OLD RED]

The sport misses him badly.

 

[Rationality]

Don't do this to me. Man I was so excited for those cards 8-14 years ago!

Want to feel really old?..

Erick Silva will be 21 in 3 years..

Good one, caught me off guard and didnt expect an eric Silva joke lol it used to be overdone but this joke hit since it hasnt been mentioned in a while

I remember that fight vividly, I was a huge leben fan and I didn't know shit about Silva and thought Chris was going to ko him and get a title shot.......yeah.

I remember when Chris ran straight into the punches then went down I was like noooo Chris cane be knocked out! Then he kinda recovered and I was like fuck yeah he's back and going to win! Then knees and night night time.

Yeah that was an incredible debut, probably the best UFC debut ever, it was amazing. Leben also had an amazing chin, he could take it! so to get dropped a few times like that within a minute is madness.

I think the speed difference was huge, Leben is just so slow compared to Anderson, he was lightning fast.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

haha that was my reaction too, its unbelievable. The time seems to go at light speed when you get older lol, its not a myth, its really true I think. Thats how I feel

 

[TheTickG]

I don't know if it will hit everyone the same, but I feel like it was just yesterday he was around 36, 37 lol

No. I do not want to feel old.

 

[tank666]

It's true. Waiting and hour to go to the video store to rent a movie or video game was torture and took forever but now 5 years ago was yesterday when my son was born.

You are only old of you don't know the answer to this riddle, if you're 555 I'm ???

When you're 10, another year feels like 1/10th of your life has passed. When your 30, it only feels like 1/30th.

 

[VAfan]

i already felt old, but thank you for reminding me.
