Damian ready for UFC Middleweight?
Top UFC middleweight contender, Damian Maia will be putting on his
MMA gloves again as he feels he is ready to take up current UFC middleweight champion title holder Anderson Silva nicknamed ‘The spider’. Talking to Fighters magazine he said:
“I see myself ready to fight for the belt. I would go at Anderson and it would give him the chance of knocking me out or give me the opportunity to finish the fight. That’s what I expect. I’m not saying I will win, but I will fight to end the fight before the judge’s decision. I want to do an aggressive fight and expose myself more. The UFC were waiting on the result of Anderson-Thales match to see what to do with me. They told me they were planning to give me the chance in August but because of their performance the UFC decided not put Silva in a main event very soon. Then they matched me and Nate Marquardt to find out the next challenger for the belt.”
