Considered the best pound-for-pound athlete of the world, Anderson Silva dominated the UFC middleweight division and, at UFC Fight Night 14 show, did a great fight at light-weight category. Facing the tough James Irvin, that was coming from a huge eight seconds knockout, Silva showed why he’s pointed as the best fighter of the MMA world. “Funny, huh? I wasn’t expecting such victory that fast and easy, but we train to do the work perfectly and I go to the octagon to do what I train. Thanks God everything was alright. The only bad thing is that he (Irvin) got hurt, cut the face, but it’s part of the job”, commented the middleweight champion, that is now thinking on his next title defense.
Anderson
confirmed with exclusivity to TATAME that he may fight at September, and the opponent is defined. Yushin Okami, which would likely face him for the title, broke a hand while training, so
Anderson
may now face Patrick Cote. “We came to Las Angeles now and will help Rafael (Feijão) to prepare for his fight at Elite XC. After that, we’ll go back to to train for my fight at September. I believe I’ll face Patrick Cote”, told
Anderson
, that faces the opponent that beat Ricardo “Cachorrão” Almeida at his last fight. “I haven’t seen his that fight, I’ll take a look at that”, said
Anderson

I\'m a big Cosmo Alexandre fan. Cosmo is a monster in Muay Thai. Someone should convince him to train in MMA, and be the next Anderson Silva!
