Wanderlei Silva Looking To Fight Belfort or Sonnen Next

[No More Sorrow]

"Two names that I'm thinking I want to fight right now are (Vitor) Belfort and (Chael) Sonnen," Silva today told MMAjunkie.com Radio (MMAjunkie.com Radio | MMAjunkie.com). "They are good fights for me."

Silva said he can drop to 185 pounds if need be, or fight at light heavyweight.


"I think I can be ready in one month if the UFC needs some guy to help the event," he said. "I'm eating really good. I'm healthy right now. I go to sleep at 11 p.m., wake up at 6 a.m., and drink my coffee."


"I'm fighting good," he said. "I beat one guy. I think sometimes I need to adjust some things in this new moment in my career, and I'm going to come back strong."

The most logical fight for him right now is the Belfort fight seeing as it was originally supposed to headline a PPV months ago but Belfort fucked his hand up. Don't think the Chael fight will ever happen to be honest, especially now with him making 205 his home.

Belfort would be a scary risk for him to take IMO.

He doesn't have much of a chin anymore and Belfort can still bang, so it doesn't need a rocket scientist to see the outcome of that one.

At least it'll be a good fight and quite a war if we were to get Belfort vs. Silva.
