Anderson Silva to Possibly Fight on November 15th at UFC 91
October 29, 2008 by admin
After the debacle that was Anderson Silva vs. Patrick Cote at UFC 90, it seems that “The Spider” is willing to redeem himself quickly. UFC President Dana White told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that Anderson is ready to go as soon as possible.
“He’s flipping out. He wants to fight again, like, on Nov. 15. He’s (upset) about his performance and he wants to fight again immediately.”
Silva had this to say about his performance.
“I didn’t come here to play. I didn’t come here to put on a show,” Silva said through a translator afterward. “I came here to do my job and I didn’t become a champion and defend the title as many times as I have by not doing my job.”
I can definitely see Dana White and the UFC brass making this happen. Probably a long shot, but there are some fighters out there that would take this fight on 3 weeks notice. I mean its a win-win for Silva’s opponent win or lose.
The best case scenario is if Silva were willing to fight at 205 again. That would open up alot more options, including a super fight with Chuck Liddell.
At middleweight, I think the best possible scenario would be a rematch with Nate Marquardt. In any case, if Dana were to pull this off, UFC 91: Lesnar vs. Couture would probably shatter UFC Pay-Per-View records.

Cote “I Fucked Him Up Really Bad”
October 27, 2008 by admin
the delusions you suffer when Anderson Silva allows you to reach round three. As you can see in this video from MMACanada, Patrick Cote has a rather inflated sense of his own toughness following Saturday night’s debacle. After explaining that his knee was actually toast by the end of the second round, the Predator launches into the money quote:
“I proved to everybody that this guy’s not unbeatable. I think I fucked him up really bad ['you fucked him up' and 'oh, big time' his friends shout, possibly sarcastically]. My gameplan was good and I think he was scared to exchange with me. I received all his best punch and all his best knee and I was still there.”
Well, that’s a matter of opinion. It’s still unclear what was going through Silva’s head during those first two rounds, but I wouldn’t assume that he was scared of Cote (who never gave Silva reason to be), and the small handful of bored strikes he threw certainly did not represent “his best punch and his best knee.” Far from it. What we saw at UFC 90 was Anderson Silva at his most ineffective.
