Exactly 128 days after fracturing his left leg in the rematch against Chris Weidman, in December last year, the Brazilian Anderson Silva He is now free to return to training normally in any area of MMA. Despite the strong images of his injury, Anderson is already completely recovered and received the go-ahead to return to regular training from his doctor at the Kerlan-Jobe clinic in Los Angeles (USA).
The information was released by Spider's manager, Ed Soares, to the “MMA Junkie” website. Despite the encouraging news, the agent did not want to project a possible return for the Brazilian to the octagon and left the decision on a hypothetical next fight for Anderson conditional on Ultimate. “We talked to the UFC and we’ll see what they suggest,” he said evasively.
And if the final decision on Spider's return to the octagon that consecrated him depends on the UFC's wishes, president Dana White already has in mind exactly when he wants Anderson back. “He could have the last fight of this year, or the first of next year. He will return in 2014 or in the first event in 2015. End of 2014 or beginning of 2015, that's what I said”, said the director, also on the North American website.
