UFC legend Anderson Silva finished up his Octagon career in 2020. After fighting out his contract with the promotion ‘The Spider’ has been pursuing boxing opportunities, including a recent victory over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
He spent fourteen years in the UFC and, during the Spike TV era, was an unstoppable looking middleweight champion who drew countless fans to the sport. Silva’s reign as champion was ended in 2013. Later that year he also suffered a catastrophic leg injury.
Silva fought seven times in the UFC in the seven years since that injury. He had just one win over that time.
