It has just been announced on the UFC website that Brazilian Mixed Martial Arts Fighter, Wanderlei Silva will return to the UFC as a 205 pounder this December! Pride and the UFC are really starting to come together these days. It’s been seven years since Wanderlei Silva has fought with the UFC (UFC 25). Wanderlei has name a big name for himself with Pride, fighting such large names as Dan Henderson and Quinton Jackson (he beat Rampage twice!). Wanderlei has also fought UFC’s Tito Ortiz and Vitor Belfort in 2000 and in 1998 respectively.  There has been talk for years of a fight between Chuck Liddell and Wanderlei Silva all starting at UFC 61 when Wanderlei entered the ring and talked some smack.

“Many fighters have a dream of fighting for the UFC, and as a champion for six years in Japan, my dream has always been to have the UFC belt,” said Silva.  “Today, I’m one step closer to this goal.”

“As crazy as this sounds, this is the pinnacle of my seven year career in this company,” said UFC President Dana White.  “I’m so excited to have this guy under contract.  He grabbed my arm and looked me in the eyes like one of his pre-fight staredowns and he said ‘I’m gonna fight so good for you, you’re gonna see the best fights ever from Wanderlei Silva.’” - Source UFC Website
