Wanderlei Silva returns in February

Brazilian legend Wanderlei Silva expects to return to the Octagon in February 2010, he told Fighters Only earlier today.

Silva last fought at UFC 99 in Germany, losing a split decision to Rich Franklin in a fight that is in the running for Fight of the Year 2009 in the World Mixed Martial Arts Awards.
