Anderson Silva ‘disappointed' with the way the UFC has treated him

Jose Aldo and Khabib Nurmagomedov are not happy with the UFC’s recent decisions, and you can add Anderson Silva to that list.

The former UFC middleweight champion, and one of the best MMA fighters ever, last competed inside the Octagon at UFC 200 in July, replacing Jon Jones on two days notice against light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier. Silva lost via unanimous decision.

Even though Silva took the fight on short notice to help the promotion, the Brazilian said he didn’t get the recognition he deserved from UFC president Dana White nor Lorenzo Fertitta.
