Anderson Silva to retire

He will be fighting Chuck next, then after that Dana better put together the fight with Bisping, because if he gets past Chuck, Bisping's gonna get him.
In the interveiw he say's he beleive's his time has come to an end and that it's time for him to pass his knowledge on . There's nothing i don't like about Anderson he seem's like a humble hard working guy .It will be a sad day when he retire's but i can sort of understand that he wouldn't want to fade away but leave as the legend he is.

Bisping does not deserve a title shot yet. Even Bisping himself said that he would like to have at least 2-3 more fights at 185 before fighting Anderson. Bisping will be the next TUF coach but the other coach is not determinded yet. The latest rumor is that neither Henderson or Franklin are interested and that it might be Damian Maia which is really bad news for Bisping IMO.
Anderson is an amazing fighter. He is my favorite because of his class and how humble he is. He knows he is good but doesn't brag like BJ Penn or those guys. He still has 5 fights and probably won't retire even then. We'll have to see. He seems serious about it though.
Ya from what I remember from a show or an article I read he wanted to become a coach and run his gym in florida with big nog.jojo_nature;2438868; said:

I don't really care what Bisping says, there is nobaody in that class who is worthy of a title fight with Silva besides him. You can march Silva out there against Chuck, but at some point he needs to fight guys in his class, and that should be Bisping. It's kind of like whats going in in the heavyweight class. Since there are so few guys who are actually any good, they are going to get into bigger fights quicker, because somebody has to fight.
I heard thatabout Maia too, we'll see if that really happens, I'm not sure that he is popular enough yet to warrant giving him a top spot as a coach on TUF, but we'll see...
So your saying that Bisping deserves a shot in front of Okami? Or even Cote? Technically Silva didn't beat Cote. He won but he didn't beat him. I think Cote deserves another shot after winning one more fight.hamato_yoshii;2439410; said:

If your asking me personally, my answer is yes. I think Bisping is more deserving than the others, he only has one loss, and that was a split decision to Rashad Evans who is the #1 contender for the light heavyweight belt. I will concede that both Okami and Cote from their records probably are as deserving (maybe), but as far as talent, and who I think will be the best test for Silva, that is Bisping.
