Not sure I'd call his style retarded though. The guy is undefeated and 11 of his 13 fights end in either a sub or KO in the 1st or 2nd round. It's smart fighting. I'd put an Anderson Silva fight up against any other current UFC champion in terms of entertainment value (minus Jones maybe, but he hasn't fought top tier talent actually prepared for him yet).

Let me clarify a little. His style is legit, but it's his retarded antics/taunting that irks me. If he wants to wait for his opponent to attack, that's fine, but he acts like a total prick about it, dancing around and taunting them, etc, and it pisses off the crowd. He can have his style, but he needs to chill with some of his "antics." That's what I find retarded, is his taunting, etc. His style isn't retarded, but it can be very boring if he's fighting someone who won't engage. So yeah, I'm not a fan of his style, but I hate his antics.
