It's not luck, it's being outclassed.

It's hard to take a fighter serious when he's laughing and fooling around about the fact that he just got his face re-aranged,considering he was on his last leg in the UFC going into the fight...I lost alot of respect for Vera during that moment, it shows a lack of respect for the credability he has for himself in this sport..I'm almost certain sometime this week he will be cut from the UFC roster,proving that he can't cut it against the top fighters in MMA,he'll then look back and see how he acted "playing it up for the camera about getting demolished"...I hope he enjoys his Strikeforce life, and even if he is successful in Strikeforce,he'll always know in the back of his mind that he's a minor league star that got bashed out of the UFC

I'm from San Diego like him. I've met him. Nice guy but a big talker and a let down. His time has come to leave.

I feel the exact opposite. It takes some courage to get your *** kicked, but still look at it in a positive light.
Just because he got beat doesn't mean he has to mope around the cage like a emo kid. I think you are taking this
way
too seriously.

I like Vera, I was rooting for him too.
I was also surprised at how easily Silva handled him, I thought it was going to be more competitive.
That was an embarrassing loss, and one nasty broken nose to go with it.

Agreed, evereyone reacts differently to situations like that. So what if he choose humor to help deal with the loss. Its just because most people put Vera in the Bisping class. They love to hate him, if this was a different fighter that lost and they were smiling while looking at there broken nose, people would be like "hell ya, that dudes awesome, he laughing at his broken nose" but sadly its Vera, so people look for even more reasons to hate him

I think Vera's was much worse than Franklins.
Although Cung Le's nose was pretty f**ked up against Smith

People used to love Vera, he is not in a Bisping class. Bisping is a top fighter, Vera isn't even close. People don't like Vera because he isn't any good yet thinks he is the best for some reason. The guy has won 3 out of his last 9 fights beating Reese Andy, Michael Patt, and Krzysztof. The guy is mid tier at best. He almost has to be cut now with 3 losses in a row.

Agree with Phoenix. Franklin's was just sort of moved over and I remember thinking "well, at least they can just snap that back over." Vera's is just a huge freaking smashed up area. He's in for some real fun surgery, I'd say.

I thought he was acting like that out of extreme embarrassment - not "a lack of respect" for anything. He was clearly embarrassed since he was covering his nose so much.
