Despite in last two fights being loses to the champion Chris Weidman, Anderson Silva will receive another title fight with a win over Nick Diaz at UFC 183.
White stated in a recent interview on FOX Sports 1’s UFC Tonight that Silva (33-6 MMA, 16-2 UFC) is likely to face the winner of UFC 184’s title bout between Weidman and Vitor Belfort should he get past Nick Diaz (26-9 MMA, 7-6 UFC) at UFC 183 later this month.
Diaz and Anderson Silva are fighting, and obviously if Anderson Silva wins that fight, and whether Vitor or Weidman win, then you have Anderson Silva versus either one of those guys, White said.
