The Iron Sheik Gets at Anderson Silva on Twitter

As if losing the belt wasn't bad enough.

In case you missed it, Anderson Silvadidn't take Chris Weidman seriously enough, which ended up costing him him his consciousness and his belt. The way he went down and the fact one of the greatest mixed martial artists got KO'd like that drew Twitter ether and criticism. One of the harshest of those tweeters was the wrestling legend, The Iron Sheik.

Apparently, The Iron Sheik wasn't too big of a fan of Silva's style for a while, and last night's loss gave him a good opportunity to throw some elbows:

Was it really necessarily to clarify exactly what type of "spider dick" he allegedly has though? Regardless, Silva can always come back at Sheik for making this travesty of a music video.

Kudos for bringing back the term "jabroni" though.
