Silva suggests loss at UFC London 'totally corrupted'

Anderson Silva struggled to explain how he lost a fight in which he knocked his opponent, Michael Bisping, out in the third round at UFC London on Saturday.

"If you can't win in one way, they find a way to take it from you," Silva said in Portugese in his post-match comments, as translated by journalist Evy Rodrigues. "You saw it. Sometimes things are like in Brazil: Totally corrupted."

Silva appeared to win the fight with a flying knee to the face of Bisping at the end of the third round, but the buzzer sounded and the match continued even though Silva began celebrating like he won.

To make the events even more bizarre, Bisping was without his mouth guard and was distracted as he tried to alert the referee when Silva struck.

Despite the wild events of the third round, Bisping went on to win on the scorecard via unanimous decision, a result UFC president Dana White said he disagreed with. In a post-fight interview, White said he scored the fight 48-47 in Silva's favor.
