Thiago Silva targeting December return: "This time I got hurt one week before the fight, and it...

"This time I got hurt one week before the fight, and it was even more serious. I lost the movement of my right leg, but I’m doing my recovery work now. I’m not training it all, but they say I’ll be able to train within four weeks", said Thiago (14-2).

"I’ll fight this year, probably in December. The division is stronger, in my opinion, it’s the most disputed on UFC. Unfortunately, my bad luck is keeping me out of it, but I deserve to conquest my space."

I think they'll give him a bit of a softie

Injury problems and the loss to Rashad I think they’ll give him someone like Gustafson.

yeah I like the idea of giving him someone else who has been on the bench with injury.
and both are great matchups.

can’t wait to see him back. The guy is under-rated when healthy. He was razor close to KO’ing that phony Rashard.

if I hear one more fighter blame injury for a loss……

“Sorry I put on a crappy performance, I was hurt…but hey I needed to cash a pay cheque rather than sit out the fight. Hope you didn’t order that PPV I ruined.”
