There is one side story in the just concluded UFC 101 showdown between Anderson Silva and Forrest Griffin that was getting a lot of ink prior to the match up and i just want to show everyone who and what it was about.
About a year ago, a well decorated Jiu-jitsu grappler by the name of Robert Drysdale (picture above) came into Anderson Silva’s camp and asked the latter if he could train with the former. For some reason Drysdale wasn’t welcomed by Silva’s camp and fast forward to a few months ago, Drysdale was in Griffin’s training camp talking smack about how Forrest will knock Silva out easily. Well, we all know how that worked for Griffin. Is this the end of the Drysdale and Silva saga? Only time will tell.
