silva/belfort off!

Anderson Silva has backed out of his January fight with Vitor Belfort stating that it would be too soon for him to return to the octagon. I can believe this because his last fight against Forrest Griffin in August was soooo taxing on him. What the hell? This guy hasn't had a tough fight since he beat up on Thales Leites. Actually, he seemed kinda bored at the end of this fight, but at least it went the distance.

He had elbow surgery.

Lesnar had the same surgery and never skipped a beat in his training.

Macida is also having surgery on his hand, so who knows when this rematch will happen. Some big fights are getting pushed back or cancelled lately, Carwin?Lesnar Silva/Belfort Machida/Rua Fitch/Alves (Fitch vs Mike Pierce 107)
