May 08, 2009 - Las Vegas: “I want to fight him again. I want to fight him now, and maybe in the final (fight of my career.).”
Silva’s most recent fight was a knockout loss to Jackson at UFC 92. In total Silva and Jackson have fought 3 times with Silva winning the first two bouts by KO. The pair’s rivalry is legendary within the sport and is so great that some have speculated it to be engineered. Wanderlei replies “This is a mindset for the fight. It is not fake, it is not just promotion for the fight.”
Wanderlei is a mixed martial arts legend and went undefeated in Japan for four and a half years before eventually joining the UFC and fights former UFC middleweight Champ Rich Franklin at UFC 99 in June next.
