Anderson Silva unlikely to return at UFC 95, April return on the horizon
Five Ounces of Pain — Anderson Silva unlikely to return at UFC 95, April return on the horizon Ed Soares , Anderson Silva’s manager, told MMA Junkie today that a fight at UFC 95 is unlikely for the current pound for pound king. Dana White said earlier in the week during his time in North Carolina for “Fight For The Troops” that a matchup between Thales Leites and Anderson Silva could very well headline UFC 95. According to Soares, that seems very unlikely.“As of right now, nothing has been 100 percent decided yet. It looks like we’re looking to fight in April. We don’t know what can happen, ...

Anderson Silva Not So Interested in Fighting at UFC 95
CagePotato.com — ... middleweight champ, the guy who got so pissed at the reaction to his fight with Patrick Cote that he wanted to be put on another UFC card as fast as possible just so he could punch a hole in someone’s face and shut everybody up?  Well he’s calmed down now.  Despite Dana White’s indications that Silva would headline UFC 95 in February, possibly against Thales Leites, Silva’s manager, Ed Soares, says they’re thinking they’d rather wait until April to fight again. ...

Anderson says fuck the UK, fuck Thales Leites
Fightlinker.com » Fightlinker - MMA, UFC, and other funny fight crap — ... Those looking forward to seeing Anderson Silva in London this April are gonna be disappointed: he’s just publicly stated he won’t be fighting on the card because February ‘isn’t enough time’ to prepare. This of course is total bullshit, if you ask me. My opinion is that Anderson Silva’s “Fight anyone anywhere” attitude has changed due to the “anyone” part of the equation being abused by the UFC. Michael Rome ...

Anderson Silva is a Disney princess
Fightlinker.com » Fightlinker - MMA, UFC, and other funny fight crap — ... to turning down a potential February match up with Thales Leites. As fans, we’re selfish bastards and want to see Silva back in the octagon sooner rather than later, “putting the stamp on kids” (thank you Chris Leben). It looks like Silva wants to have his cake and eat it too; he wants a high quantity of fights but he doesn’t want to sacrifice quality to do it. I think it’s obvious that match ups with guys like James Irvin, Patrick Cote, and Thales Leites aren’t exactly fights that are going to add much to Silva’s legacy in the sport or ...
