What I got from Segal's comment was in regards to physical damage. Silva walked out unscaved except in Sonnen 1 where he was documented as being injured prior.

Well it takes two to tango. Overeem didn't leave a positive impression when he beat Werdum who kept dropping to his back. In regards to Cote he couldn't even finish the fight due to injury but still managed to get highlight reeled (and by that no I don't mean TKO/KO)

With the way that Silva trains I would have to assume he takes all of his fights seriously as well. The fact that SIlva has a high finishing rate should be something of note. The difference is Silva has the capability to beat people up mentally like Ali, Rjj.

He also studies Capoeria which is a Brazillian martial art that comprises both dancing and music.

Ofcourse he was dominated. With an injury like that I am surprised he even finished the fight. Other fighters would probably threw in the towel. The bottom line is and as documented Silva went in with the intentions of submitting Sonnen.

Hence the videos of him talking with Nog prior and him wearing the gi to the ring (which is something he never does). I can't dismiss those correlations.
