Former PRIDE champion, Wanderlei Silva has revealed that he won’t consider hanging up the gloves until he’s at least 40 years old after giving himself a new set of challenges he wants to accomplish since dropping to 185 pounds.
Speaking via Tatame Magazine, Wanderlei said:
“I want to fight over six years, at least until I hit forty. This change of class was good, I had to re-educate myself on the food and I’m feeling pretty good about it.”
On his upcoming July 3rd showdown with Yosihiro Akiyama, “The Axe Murderer” said:
“Akiyama is a pretty tough guy, a good guy… good on the ground, a big strong guy. Akiyama is a judo player originally but has transitioned well to MMA and all but one of his wins have come inside the distance. It will be a very interesting fight, is a great fight for me because he’s a guy who comes forward to play the game, not a guy who runs. I believe it will be a very busy fight, a great show.”
Wanderlei made his middleweight debut against Michael Bisping in February and looked re-invigorated after making the drop. Can he continue his run towards the top of the 185 pound division, giving his fans a few more video highlights to add to their collection?
