Anderson Silva used a metaphor with lions and hyenas in his first public statement following a UFC 237 loss to Jared Cannonier.
The former UFC middleweight champion lost in the co-main event of Saturday night’s pay-per-view card in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, suffering a right knee injury with seconds left in the clock in the opening round, courtesy of a hard kick thrown by Cannonier.
It’s still unclear the exact injuries Silva suffered in the middleweight fight, and how long the he would be forced out of action, but the 44-year-old Brazilian legend doesn’t sound like someone who’s considering retirement.
