|  What would you have done if...
there wasn't a sufficient replay of Chael tapping against Silva?
Nobody really mentioned it, but when that happened, I was screaming my head off. Could you imagine what would have happened if they didn't have that replay?!
...I was ready to go crazy. Though the ref was a deadman for a moment, hahaha.

You sure talk about going crazy a lot; watch that blood pressure.
I dunno. I saw the tap, but since it was only one, I could see how without replay there could have been some potential for controversy.

I was screaming pretty loud before the replay, I'm surprised my neighbors didn't call the cops on me. I was screaming some major profanities  | |

I saw the tap before the replays. I immediately thought of CB Dollaway vs. Amir Sadollah, during the chaos after the tap.

I clearly saw the tap.
Then when the confussion began I thought that the fight would end as a no contest.
But the tap was very clear

I watched it again last night. I think he did tap, but he may not have realized he even did at first. Anyone whos been choked to near unconsiousness knows you're not exactly thinking clearly in that state. After when he was talking to the ref it looked like he said "I believe you". Like the ref was reiderating "I saw you tap". But thank god for that replay or the crowd might have rioted. Pretty intense moment.

I saw the tap before the replay as well, it was pretty clear, but I still thought there was going to be some controversy over it. I'm actually surprised there hasn't been. I tried to point out when I heard him talking to the ref to my friends, but then it was clear when he stated he came up short that he did tap, and then order was restored to the world.

I am guessing if he didn't tap he would have gone unconscious from that triangle anyway. I was eccstatic to see the tap in the replays!

HOSS-Bork, you should spend more time brushing up on your MMA history, and less time complementing guys on how young their penises taste.
