in less than two minutes during his comeback fight.
event.
The Real Deal, who raised concerns about his well-being at his open gyms, looked like a shell of himself and was stopped in under two minutes.
White was disappointed by the outcome of the latest Triller Fight Club event. Anderson Silva, future UFC Hall of Famer, recorded a brutal first round KO over Tito Ortiz.
He stated: "Guys," Anderson Silva boxed Tito Ortiz.
"[He] boxed Tito Ortiz. Tito Ortiz is not qualified to box n' anyone.
"Tito is 40-f ****n’ something years old. Evander Holyfield, who's almost 60 years old, is f *****g fighter.
It's absurd. It's all silly. There will always be people dumb enough to pay for these fights.
White was however impressed by Silva's defeat of Ortiz as a former middleweight champion, and he declared that The Spider may be the greatest fighter ever to have fought in combat sports.
He stated: "Anderson Silva. We need to talk again about him as the GOAT.
"Not Tito because he knocked Tito unconscious in 40 f n seconds. But he did Tito exactly what Tito should have done.
"Knocking Tito out within 40 seconds is what should have happened in that fight. Anderson Silva defeated Julio Chavez Jr. at 46
"At 46 years of age ****n, he quit this sport, where he was considered one the greatest of all time, and beat Chavez Jr in a bout of boxing. Then he goes on to knock out Tito in 40 seconds.
"And, as you all know, Tito is not a boxer.
"He's a terrible boxer, and that's the reason I said I would fight him. But, Tito's other side is that when he fought here in his prime, Tito had a great chin.
"Tito took big hits from a lot o' guys who hit hard. Anderson Silva knocked him out within 40 seconds.
"Anderson Silva may be the GOAT in combat sports."
