It is often said that UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva is the best mixed martial artist in the world. He's 14-0 in the UFC, and has defended his belt a record nine times. Basically, he's not someone you want to mess with. But in a Globo article that discusses an interview Anderson did with Istoe Gente, the great champion states that he's - a metrosexual? The article is in Portuguese, but the Google translation is after the jump...

The magazine "People Istoé" this week joined the top Izabel Goulart and fighter Anderson Silva. But much more than perfect bodies, the publication found that the two have more in common.

"I like to look after myself. I'm kinda metrosexual. I like the cream of Victoria's Secret. So I do the eyebrows from time to time. And also do waxing. It has nothing to do with the fight. I just do not really like the, you know? Do not think it's cool, "said the fighter for the magazine.

Elizabeth, one of the Angels brand of creams Anderson, also chimes when it comes to body care.

"I was super consumerist creams. He had several, but died of laziness to pass. I got this obsession in French pharmacies. I only started buying so much and did not. My toilet bag was monstrous, but had no result. Then I stopped and saw that it was wrong. I decided to go to the dermatologist. It was the best thing I did, "he says.

The article includes the picture above, along with two others. Silva's next bout will see him rematching Chael Sonnen, though the date and location haven't been finalized as of yet.
