Until Silva flat out REFUSES to defend his title, then I don't understand the problem. He doesn't book his own fights, the UFC brass does. If Weidman has a problem with Dana, not Anderson. Silva's not holding anything hostage, because the UFC owns the belt. If they really want it defended every 4 months, then they would tell Silva to defend it. Silva can say whatever he likes about potential contenders, but push comes to shove he fights who he's told to fight. Hell even volunteers to save events. You may not like his attitude, but to say he ducks people is flat out wrong. Dana White is the promoter and he makes the final decisions.

"I don't call the fighting in my films 'violent', I call it 'action'. An action film borders between fantasy and reality. If I were to be completely realistic in my films, you would call me a violent, bloody man. I would simply destroy my opponent by tearing his guts out. I wouldn't do it so artistically." ~Bruce Lee  |
