Wanderlei Silva told the Brazilian press he would rather fight at UFC 132 that at UFC “Rio” in August.

“I asked Dana White to fight here [in Las Vegas]. It was a combination of factors. This event was already scheduled for a timeslot in which I would be ready to fight and it is very near my house. MGM Grand Garden Arena is three minutes away from my house."

"(Leben) has a very good fighting style and won’t run from me. It presents the prospect of a good fight, more ‘one-on-one’, as they say. I am at a point of my career that I come in to give my best. I like to entertain and put exciting fights. I am kamikaze really, with me its kill or be killed.”

Haha, when I detonate the suicide vest I know that it's either me or my enemy who must die! Oh wait.

surprised UG News didn't title this thread "Wand: Suicidal?"

Actually kamikaze always died, regardless of whether they succeeded or not, Wanderlei, that comparison is not really positive.

Signed! I need those wins.

At this point I really don´t think we can be certain about Wand´s chin being weaker. Yeah he's been ko'ed three times, but you have to look at who ko'ed him. Not too many people survived CC's LHK, and the same goes for Hendo's and Rampage's punches. When those guys connect hard and clean, it's over no matter who's in front of them

In the name of Allah, W Wanderlei,,, please... more "kill", less "be killed". Thank you Jesus.

Wand needs a victory. I'd love to see some GNP from him.

He can always go to Japan where...oh fuck it.

Both guys like to stand and bang, its basically going to come down to who lands a good shot first and whose chin can take a harder punch. At this point in their careers I think Wanderlei has weaker chin...it could go either way
