The questions started immediately after Anderson Silva was knocked out by Chris Weidman in July. The longtime champ and pound-for-pound king had barely hit the canvas when critics were dogging him for clowning around against Weidman in the cage – clowning, they said, that allowed Weidman to drill Silva for an upset knockout. After the fact, Silva has maintained he was merely fighting as he always does – and that a simple footwork mistake was the difference for Weidman in the UFC 162 main event.
