Title:UFC & WEC Post-Mortem: The Spider’s Sense, Torres’ Humanity, More - http://www.sherdog.com/news/blog/ufc-ampamp-wec-post-mortem-the-spiders-sense-torres-humanity-more-19026
Description:If you’re only as good as your last fight, Anderson Silva exited the Octagon on Saturday in far better shape than he entered.

After two performances that had fans grumbling, the UFC decided to inflame Silva’s attitude by getting Forrest Griffin to chase him. Hopefully, Griffin got hazard pay for it: after looking aimless and ineffectual in the opening minutes, Griffin walked right into a stiff jab that crumpled his ungainly frame. Power and size leaks confidence at the first sign of accuracy -- and Silva is a sniper.

What does it prove? We knew Silva was a far better muay Thai craftsman than Griffin, so it’s doubtful any eyeballs were singed tonight. But it was evidence that Silva’s recent appearances at middleweight were certainly the result of his opponents’ lax approach.

So what now?
