Anderson Silva to defend title against Sonnen, according to Dana White Empty

Quote :
UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva will defend his title against top-rated contender Chael Sonnen, UFC president Dana White said Wednesday on the Jim Rome Show.

"It's the fight that everybody wants to see. People want to see Chael vs. Anderson," White said. "Anderson is in this position where he feels like the guy is so disrespectful he doesn't want to give him a shot.

"But Anderson will end up fighting Chael. The answer is yes."

White did not say when or where the fight would take place. Silva is currently recovering from a shoulder injury.

Sonnen nearly defeated Silva during their middleweight title bout on Aug. 7, 2010, at UFC 117 in Oakland, Calif. He dominated Silva for four-plus rounds before submitting at 3:10 of the fifth.

Since the loss, Sonnen has continuously taunted Silva. But after stopping Brian Stann in the second round Oct. 8, Sonnen upped the ante.

"Anderson Silva, you absolutely suck," Sonnen said. "I'm calling you out, Silva, but I'm upping the stakes.

"I beat you and you leave the division. You beat me and I leave the UFC forever."

While the statement increased interest in a Silva-Sonnen rematch, the fight was never assured.

Two ways this ends.... Anderson really doesnt want to fight Sonnen... retires ala Randy C.... and ends up fighting him later.

or Anderson takes the fight and rips Sonnen a new one.

I'm very bothered by the fact that Anderson is trying to dodge the Sonnen fight. I don't mean that in a disrespectful way because I'm a fan of Anderson, but if you look at it black and white, Sonnen...as well as the MMA universe wants this fight...but Anderson apparently doesn't...I don't like that.

We all knew this was coming, as has been seen many times before; the fighters don't make the fights or pick them, even if they are passionate about them one way or another.

I predict it to take place after Superbowl weekend . . . . . . . .
once Silva has recovered 100% from his injury as not to be able to use it as an excuse if Silva loses.
