Anderson Silva remains UFC Middleweight champ by once again DISMANTLING Rich Franklin. Silva crumpled Franklin with a right hook at the very end of round one. In round 2, Silva patiently stalked, not throwing a strike for the first 30 seconds of the round, dancing and dodging Franklin, finally UNLOADING on Franklin against the fence. The hometown hero crumpled for a second time and McCarthy stepped in. Another surgically vicious win for Silva.
Solid win for Bonnar, who was too much for Schafer in this one. Bonnar gives some good post-fight analysis: “I thought I would have the better stand-up but I didn’t mind going to the ground,” said Bonnar. “But then he got my back and I said, you dumbass…don’t get taken down like that. There were a couple of punches where I thought he was dazed. I just wanted to hit him good in the head, so it was a good stoppage.”
By my grade, UFC 77 Hostile Territory was a B+

this was a very uneventful night on ppv, maybe the unaired prelims were good i dont know. but i was pretty bored watching this one. silva vs franklin was the only one worth watching proving again, that franklin was all hype. i was disapointed by veras performance, i def was expecting more but when the ever unexciting sylvia presses you against the fence for 3 rounds with a ref who doesnt do thier job i guess i shouldnt of expected much. gurgel never belonged in the ufc and his loss was not a surprise, hed make good fodder for wec at best; by far the most annoying member of the tuf alumni. would have made a good free spike tv event, but since i paid for it i def wasnt to pleased. just my 2 cents
