To bad Forrest only made it to the ground after Anderson knocked the shit out of him

[cjgreenman]

You guys sound like a bunch of people that know nothing about mma fighting, Drysdale was commenting on the ground game not the stand up. He is a BJJ expert, it has to get to the ground, if it did he felt Forrest had an advantage. I thought Silva would win too because his standup is phenomenol, however, you don't talk shit about someones trainer.

[sanguebom987]

some people speak to soon!! Drysdale should be alot more diplomatic when sharing his thoughts if he is such a accomplished professional. If he is offended with Anderson's opinion, perhaps they should have a BJJ fight, then an MMA fight. They will both respect each other after that.

[cjgreenman]

He was diplomatic, Silva was the non-diplomat

[KJGould]

Drysdale is an ADCC tournament winner, and was personally requested by Randy Couture to head the sub-grappling part of his Xtreme Couture gym in Vegas.

He might not last long in an MMA fight with Anderson, but in pure grappling he would school Anderson.

anderson doesnt like when ppl dont kiss his ass..so his jiujitsu gets the job done...it does not have to be world class just good in mma

[heykevinb]

bjj is NOT MMA. there are alot of bjj purists that have had numerous competitions under the belt and can still be put on their backs with a combo. no man is a machine. there are a lot of bjj players that forget their in mma and just lay there like they're in abu dabi and get fucked...with punches that is.

as a beginner you can choke out a higher belt...if the chance is there...there's no secret. but could you punch out a professional striker-FUCK NO.

striking takes YEARS TO develop.

anderson is amazing but maybe he needs an attitude check. if some said they saw holes my game my first thought wouldnt be to argue it would be to see what those holes are and if i can fix them. thats the only way to keep evolving and stay ahead of the game. otherwise its only a matter of time before someone smart figures out how to get anderson to the ground and use those holes to there advantage.

[MILIFANGR]

ROBERT is a very logical person..i remember him from coming to Greece...... So this guy Silva is actually spoiled to have a problem about ROBERT telling his opinion..Drysdale is a real expert and his opinion is extremely precious..

[ImpassableGuardJJ]

anderson silva can be a dumbass, not to say he is a dumbass, but he can certainly be one. In this case he was wrong to adress Drysdale that way,

[therealneoturk]

clueless nuthuggers in here drydales left blackhouse camp and disrespect silva. its one thing to say his guy is gonna win its another to say that he will school him on the ground. doesnt matter tho silva worked over griffin and he would do the same to drysdale..and people saying griffin is better than silva on the ground? lmao guess we will never kno huh?

[azn0111]

Robert Drysdale is a phenomenal BJJ expert. He tapped Marcelo Garcia. Enough said!

[lilrobertt]

i train for drysdale he is the best bjj in the world i respect him anderson silva is the 1 that took what he said offensive. drysdale was confident about forrest because forrest is his student and forrest is better then anderson on the ground drysdale is the best teacher if u go to a naga tournament ull mostly hear drysdale jiu jitsu 1st place if u dont believe me watch my video nate the great jiu jitsu tournament i learned from drysdale so comment my visdeo and say whats onur mind

[gasparfreak]

If Demian don´t do shit to Anderson, so Drysdale could be raped if the referee don´t stop the fight in time!

[markperkins915]

drysdale knows his stuf. Ime prowd to lern frome his skills under team wilson. go team wilson!
