Wanderlei Silva vs. Chael Sonnen in Brazil; Silva accepts fight

Remember when Wanderlei Silva said he would never fight again? He may change his plans for one fight in particular. The former PRIDE middleweight champion was a guest color commentator at Saturday night’s XFC International 7 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and said in an interview to RedeTV, TV channel that aired the event live in Brazil, that he would come back to face his longtime rival Chael Sonnen. "Are you ready to do this? Let's do this," XFC president Myron Molotky asked Silva after the XFCi 7 main event, where Allan Nascimento defeated Ruslan Abiltarov via decision. "If (Sonnen) accepts the fight, why not?" Silva replied. "I’d do it. Why not? I’m here. Come get it." wrote:

this is the type of shit that i fear... a bullshit feud that was scripted so poorly that my 11 year old son wasnt even entertained and now some bs league is going to try to get these two elite fighters to do this fight just to capitalize on their name and the fake feud ufc built up. ridiculous imo

shortly after

Sonnen, a highly rational man, told Metamoris-match-mma" target="_blank">MMAMania that he would honor his suspension and would not fight Wanderlei Silva, but that he was open to a grappling match at Metamoris, if "The Axe Murderer" was willing. wrote:

Of for fuck's sake Wanderlei, just stop it already. You have gona past ridicluous and are now just making everyone uncomfortable.

he uses every social outlet in the worst way possible. from his twitter rants, youtube videos, tuf staged arguments, and everything else in the modern world it just takes away from what he created in the ring. sad.

It really does suck when you have fighters that were so great and so much fun to watch just taint there own legacy by doing dumb crap. Wandy could have ended his legacy as one the greatest with little argument. Now with the ducking drug test, the stupid rants, the meat headed i will get in any ones face and the jumping of sonnen on tuf with his coach i just dont think i will ever be able to look at wandy the same. I wont ever forget the awesome fights he put on but i also wont forget all the stupid crap that has done in tainting his legacy either.

Sonnen will wreck him.

i agree in mma or in grappling. i have sonnen all day long.

I see an easy takedown and then just GnP forever.

Hmmmm I was not aware that they had opened a TRT cheater league. Before I place my bet I would like to know the dose's they have taken during training and blood levels on fight night. Are they going to be able to jazz up a tad on fight night with a little coke?
