Anderson Silva vs Patrick Cote - UFC 90

It was an unfortunate and bizarre ending to Saturday's "UFC 90: Silva vs. Cote" event, which took place at a sold-out Allstate Arena in Rosemont near Chicago in the UFC's first-ever trip to Illinois.
The fight was a bit strange from the get-go. Silva, largely considered the world's top pound-for-pound fighter, was sometimes slow to engage. He was unusually patient, often retreated after Cote threw punches, and his feet and hand movement sometimes bordered on comical. He did damage when he struck, but the exchanges interrupted extended stretches of inaction.

thats not a win! in my book thats an injury, silva was not fighting he was playing the crowd, cote was traying to make the fight, one knee to the head does not make a fight either, tuff break for cote, it would have been interesting to see this fight to the finish. silva is a great sportsman and he gets props for that. but im sure thats not the way he wanted to win,
