Silva on Griffin win
No chance for Lyoto fight
Portal das Lutas – But to do so you need to be really confident standing… Beyond that, the knockout came from a jab, which hit Forrest with surgical precision. Did you do any special training to be able to do so?
Anderson Silva – So, I’d like to give a special thanks to the guys who came over from Cuba to help me with my boxing, as well as teachers Doria Distak, Cesario and Claudio Coelho. Those are the guys who made it happen.
There’s already speculation regarding a title challenge for the category above yours (light heavyweight), against Brazilian Lyoto Machida. You said after the fight your problem is to deal with middleweights and, beyond that, Lyoto is your friend. Could this fight really end up happening?
There’s no point in even asking. Of course I would never face Lyoto. We have a code of honor and, besides being friends, we’re like brothers. It will never happen.
You are the current record-holder for back-to-back wins in the UFC (10), middleweight champion and considered by many to be the best around. Do you have a hard time finding new goals to achieve?
