#2 Silva's showboating

Not even Anderson is invincible

Anderson Silva is known for his tendency to mess around inside the Octagon. Anyone who saw his fight all those years ago against Maia knows how frustrating the Spider can be at times, however, many actually enjoy his showboating because he always backs it up. Well, he used to, at least.

After years of triumphs inside of the Octagon, Silva's luck finally came to an end at the hands of an American hero.

The man in question was Chris Weidman, with the Championship fight between the two exposing Silva for his overconfidence. The Brazilian was taunting Weidman left, right and centre, continually trying to show the youngster up until the challenger finally caught Silva with a great shot that led to him capturing the Middleweight Title. Unlucky, Anderson.

Moving on to something very, very different indeed.
