UFC 134: Anderson Silva's New Burger King Commercial

PrintUFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva signed a slew of endorsement deals in Brazil recently, and the stuff he's promoting has already started to pop up. He was wearing a Corinthians jersey yesterday during his open workout, which is a Brazilian soccer team that sponsors him. Another one of his big deals was with Burger King in Brazil, and the first BK commercial featuring Silva is out. Even though it's a Brazilian commercial, you're not exactly going to need to know Portuguese to get the gist of things here. Watch and enjoy, courtesy of BK Brazil's Youtube page.
Obviously the timing of this is not coincidental, as it dropped just in time for Silva's title defense at UFC 134 this Saturday. He will be taking on Yushin Okami in the main event at the HSBC arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Anderson will be entering the cage with a Corinthians jersey on as well, and I wouldn't be surprised if we see a little singing in the cage in his post-fight speech if he manages to be victorious.
There is actually a second commercial featuring Anderson on that page as well, which you can view here. Unless you speak Portuguese though, you probably won't get it.

UFC 134:: Sad but true, Forrest Griffin will defeat Shogun again. I really hope I am wrong. If Anderson Silva loses, it will be good for his career, the MW division and the UFC.

Hilarious.
That’s a very Anderson commercial, embracing his screwball nature and love of pop stars. What the hell is the deal with that dog statue?

Yeah the workout was crazy.
That’s on another level of attention for Anderson. I think though, that he’s a guy who’s always craved this a bit, and will rise to the occasion.

Yeah, he’s been doing for quite a while but losing can be devastating.
If he loses he’s going to lose the possible rematch with Dan Henderson on FOX. That possible fight will be HUGE for his career.

That's true.
This huge leap in popularity since the Vitor fight has presumably been great for him, but at his age, he’s gotta keep winning to really cash in on it. Too bad Brazil didn’t go nuts for him a few years ago, at least for him. I’m curious to see how he responds to this attention, but I really do think he’s always craved it and will really put on a show Saturday.

Want Anderson's thoughts on this fight?
Check my sig.
"I'm ready for fight. If I'm win, no win. I don't know. But, I'm ready for fight. This is my working[shrugs shoulders]" - Anderson Silva
Check out the video
He seems completely at peace and veryreadyhappy to fight in Rio. He even looks at the camera and shakes his head after saying it.
As if to say “what a stupid question! You think I give a fuck?”
If Anderson loses, a riot might break out, but I don’t think he’s too worried about that.
"I'm ready for fight. If I'm win, no win. I don't know. But, I'm ready for fight. This is my working[shrugs shoulders]" - Anderson Silva
Yeah that sums up his thoughts for all of his UFC fights. If I’m win, I win. No win, no win. I’m rheady.

I was thinking about that
I can’t say I really like him. His toying with opponents and prima donna attitude annoy me and I often root against him.
But I really hope he wins this fight. He’s really breaking out into the mainstream, and I think as far as the good of the sport as a whole goes, a win for him is better than a win for Okami

Not that any of you really care, but the song he’s singing is Loving You by Minnie Riperton, from 1975. Awesome choice.

it's funny, but also worse for your brain than boxing
for guys who like to mock everything, they sure do spend a lot of time giving a totally crap moral to the story at the end of every episode.
south park is the preachiest fart joke in the history of television
I think you are just too old and imbettered
granted it’s taken a slide (ie no longer about the town of South Park but current events), but on the whole it’s amazing television (yes I know oxymoron)

It's kind of fallen off lately,
but especially early SP was awesome. Recently they’ve tried to be too political and too grotesque, they need to cool it with all the social commentary. “Getting gay with kids” is a perfect example of when they strike a solid balance in their sattire.

I tried to watch
Jeremiah Johnson a while back on some random channel and they did that pop-up shit the whole movie. It’s kinda interesting because you get a lot of background info but annoying as shit at the same time. It’s like having someone that doesn’t shut up about all they know about the movie inside your head.

great quote btw
This great evil. Where does it come from? How’d it steal into the world? What seed, what root did it grow from? Who’s doin’ this? Who’s killin’ us? Robbing us of life and light. Mockin’ us with the sight of what we might’ve known. Does our ruin benefit the earth? Does it help the grass to grow, the sun to shine? Is this darkness in you, too? Have you passed through this night?
How’d we lose that good that was given us? Let it slip away. Scattered it, careless. What’s keepin’ us from reaching out, touching the glory?

Yeah, it’s set in the South Pacific, Battle of Guadalcanal, has a superb cast, and is as much a meditation on life and war, as it is a “war movie”. Beautifully shot, great acting. Jim Caviesel, Sean Penn, John Cusack, Nick Nolte, really a superb ensemble cast. The best war movie ever made in my opinion.

2) Is he singing, “Making love with you is all I wanna do” to the aforementioned cheeseburger? Because that that would be… well, beefy and cheesy.

I suppose he was bound to run his course eventually, but I figured they could squeeze a couple more years out of him.

on the Portuguese commercial if people want input
they appear to be making fun of his voice, everywhere he goes people seem to be mimicking him in everything they say, "sup Anderson. hit it faster Anderson", until the end of the commercial there’s a guy speaking with a normal ton of voice until he sees the burger, and then with excitement he says; "wow, look at this burger!" with a thin voice, and Anderson finally understands that people around him are not really making fun of him, they’re just excited to see him/talk to him.

lol, that is awesome. Pretty funny commercial. Very cool for him to be ok with that theme.
To me it also pretty much confirms that the other clip with the high-pitched singing is also meant as a joke about his voice.
