One of the best middleweight fighters in the world, Jorge Santiago has been doing a great job in MMA, winning three titles in the last 13 months. After conquering Strikeforce and Dream’s belts, Jorge Santiago is getting ready to get back to the ring at May, but eyes a great fight in his category, at UFC 97. For the middleweight title, Thales Leites will step on the octagon to battle against the reign champion, Anderson Silva.

“I think both of them will be very careful in this fight, any mistake can be the end of the fight. Anderson doesn’t lose any opportunity on striking and Thales, once on the ground, has great chances to finish the fight”, analyzed Santiago, believing in another victory for Silva. “It’s hard to say who’s gonna win, but I think it’s 70-30 (%) to Anderson”.
