Erick Silva: Phony glove touch at UFC 196 unethical, but not against the rules

Erick Silva was starched by Nordine Taleb at UFC 196 last weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Unfortunately, nobody is talking about the Canadian's knockout win in "Sin City," because the big story borne from their welterweight brawl was the phony glove touch Silva used to sneak in an extra shot. But that doesn't mean his loss was karma, because he didn't break any rules.

People don't know anything about me, but still judge me, people do mistakes, they all do, I, you, he, or they, we all make mistakes and we must first recognize the errors rationally and not do it again.
