There are a lot of amazing match-ups in the middleweight division right now. It’s a very deep division. A couple of years ago, I was in the WEC and watching the rest of these guys fight. It’s an honour to now be in the mix and fighting them.
“Hopefully, my next fight will be Wanderlei Silva, who is obviously a legend in the sport, and it would be an honour to fight your guy from the UK, Michael Bisping, an amazing fighter who has truly distinguished himself in the weight class.
I think Bisping will get a title shot. He has proved himself to be an exciting, all-round fighter and has the ranking. Guys like Michael Bisping and Wanderlei have what I want in the sport – the respect and the rankings, and that’s where I want to be. They always put on exciting fights, and that’s very important to the UFC.
” I think I have the skills to compete with Anderson Silva.”
He is a few levels above the rest of the division and I’m a fight or two away from that. People wonder if I have a ground game, too. I do. It’s just that a lot of fans haven’t seen it.
And how would Stann fare against St Pierre? Me against him ? I’d knock him out, before he puts me on my butt three times. I’ve trained with GSP, and he’s a great guy and great for the sport.
