The Brazilian Anderson Silva next Saturday (06), in the main fight of UFC 162, will be the biggest challenge of his career as middleweight champion. The young Chris Weidman, 29 years old, undefeated in MMA and who for many has the perfect game to neutralize the Tupiniquim champion. However, despite the enormous challenge, Spider does not see the clash against the North American as something special.
In the press conference that precedes the clash, Anderson, appearing very calm, guarantees that he does not see the duel in the face of the North American revelation as different from other commitments in the octagon. "Nothing special. It's a normal day at work,” said Anderson, who was also asked about the fact that many Brazilians went to Las Vegas to cheer him on.
“I am very happy with this support and this healthy competition between Brazil and the United States is normal. Of course there will be more Americans that day and his fans will be bigger, but a fight is a fight. Let’s hope that everything goes well for us (Brazilians) on Saturday”, he concluded.
