I didn't even realize this thread existed.
The only thing I have to say about the Silva vs Leites fiasco is this: The UFC is a BUSINESS, not a SPORT. Having a champion like Silva isn't good forBUSINESS. You can raise as many arguments as you want about his ground game, etc, but the bottom line is his marketability has plummeted due to his last twofights and that is why Dana White apologized. It's called damage control. Dana doesn't give a sh*t about you or me.
