Former UFC middleweight kingpin Anderson Silva has put on some of the most entertaining performances we have seen in the UFC.

On August 8, 2009, Silva went up to the light heavyweight division to take on former UFC champion Forrest Griffin and put on another highlight performance.

Silva dodged Griffin’s shots with ease and caught the former UFC light heavyweight champion with clean strikes, taking him out in the very first round.
