- In spite of the fact that Antonio ‘Bigfoot’ Silva’s stock in the heavyweight division dropped a few points following his knockout loss to Daniel Cormier in the semi-finals of Strikeforce’s heavyweight grand prix, his manager, Alex Davis is confident that his client’s next fight will be in the UFC’s Octagon.
“He has a contract with Strikeforce, but Strikeforce is now controlled by the UFC and we’re watching Strikeforce fighters going to the UFC all the time,” Davis told TATAME in a recent interview. “UFC’s heavyweight division is big, but they could have even more [top talent] and I’m sure Bigfoot will be in the UFC real soon. There’s a lot of great fights for him inside the Octagon, and he’ll shine there.”
Although the report went on to state that “nothing is official” yet in regards to Silva’s migration to the UFC, there must be a reason why Davis feels so strongly that it’s going to happen, whether it be a conversation he had with the UFC brass or rumors that are swirling amongst industry insiders. If Silva does jump over from Strikeforce, the move will be further proof that Zuffa has no plans to keep it’s “B” league afloat. The Source Can't wait to watch him get shit pwnd again! | |

| The only reason why I watch Big Foot fight is for him to get KO'd... I was jumping up and down with Cormier beat the living piss out of that guy. | |

Yeh especially now since Cormier softened that jaw up. | |

| Any man that large is a true spectacle in the sport, I am amazed at the fact he can make 265lb with the size of his head.
I would also like to throw my support towards the idea of him being a gatekeeper in the HW division if he does crack the UFC roster.
The fight with Dan Cormier was f'n awesome, I was jacked all up watching him blast BigFoot in the lips. It was a great fight, and I am super excited to see Cormier win the Grand Prix; as I think he will do it.
Anyone have any interesting possibillities for match-ups in the UFC if Big Foot shows up there?
I'm thinking Carwin, Struve, Big Country for starters. | |
