There is a video and the article in the link. I seriously think it's a bluff from White, no way the UFC would release Silva.

Same here, White likes to run his mouth. If he does 'fire' Silva he'd just hired him back later in the week.

 

[J...]

Dana is not a blueberry, releasing Silva would be a Blue move. Therefore it won't happen, he's just trying to scare Silva. Silva is the best pound for pound fighter in the world, he will not, NOT get released.

Obviously Dana is bullshitting. UFC needs Anderson Silva more than Anderson Silva needs UFC.

lol if Dana isn't bullshitting and Silva would end up in Strikeforce.

Impossible Scenario...move to HW and fight Fedor. I mean come on Lesnar is a way bigger stretch than Fedor. Fedor fights at what? 220? 230? Silva probably walks around normally at 205 already, but repeat, impossible scenario, but damn Dana would feel like an ass.

Exactly the reason Dana wouldn't release Silva. Fedor.

Do you really think he would release Silva and let him be a free agent leaving Strikeforce to put him against Fedor and make the biggest fight in MMA history. No way.

I would love for it to happen just to see Dana's reaction tbh. Well see Dana's reaction and the actual fight, of course.

BTW, Silva walks around 215-220 or that's what I heard anyway. Some crazy shit for him to cut to MW from there if it is true.
