Anderson Silva, losing like a champion



We don't see Anderson Silva lose much, but when he does, he does it with the class of a champion. His antics in the cage are one thing, but he definitely shows a tremendous amount of class, grace, and respect towards his opponent Chris Weidman, after Weidman knocked him out at UFC 162 and took the UFC middleweight belt from Silva. Look eight minutes into this clip of Anderson Silva on Brazilian TV and he shows a large amount of respect to Weidman:

I respect him so much, he has a nice background. He started training MMA and fighting professional because he had seen me fighting. His goals was to train in order to be able to fight me someday. So he did. He was very focused, his goal was to defeat me, and he finally made it.
