If it’s up to UFC president Dana White, MMA legend Wanderlei Silva is done competing in the octagon.
“People love him so much because of the way he fights and his style and the type of person he is,” White said. “But yeah, (it’s) probably the end of the road for Wanderlei.”
“People knew that [Silva] and Leben were going to come out and they were going to throw until somebody fell down, and it was Wanderlei tonight.”
“I think it’s one of those ones where I’d like to sit down and talk to him and kind of Chuck Liddell him into it. I think the guy has nothing left to prove.
“He’s a warrior. People love him all over the world, and I just don’t want to see that happen to him anymore.”
White said he has yet to directly address Silva, who did not attend the evening’s post-fight press conference. The Brazilian turned 35 years old on Sunday.
