Former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva may be done with MMA, but it doesn’t sound like he’s necessarily done with facing MMA fighters. With a move over to boxing seemingly official for the ‘Spider,’ it appears one of his former rivals may be following suit. Vitor Belfort recently announced his intention to step into the ring, perhaps that means a long-awaited rematch between the pair could be on the table.
In an interview with Globo Esporte, Anderson didn’t rule out the possibility of facing the ‘Phenom’ in fistic combat once again. It doesn’t exactly sound like Anderson will be breaking down anyone’s door for the opportunity, but the 46-year-old made it clear that he’s open to all sorts of endeavors as he moves over to boxing.
