If this is it for Anderson Silva, the UFC legend walks away from the sport exalted by his peers and with an unmatched legacy in his home country.
The 45-year-old “Spider” enters the octagon Saturday night for the 21st main event of his UFC career opposite Uriah Hall in Las Vegas, and he announced that the Fight Night bout will mark the end of a historic run that started back in 2006 and featured one-of-a-kind moves that inspired generations to come.
Silva dropped not only the jaws of his opponents with lightning-fast strikes, but left fans wondering if the middleweight was out of this world.
