UFC legend Daniel Cormier has praised former opponent Anderson Silva while suggesting he shouldn’t fight again.<\/p>\n

Silva was beaten in his final fight with the Ultimate Fighting Championship last Saturday night after a hard-fought affair against Uriah Hall. In the wake of the fight, many fans and pundits have been calling for Silva to outright retire from mixed martial arts – although the Brazilian continues to keep everyone guessing.<\/p>\n

During a recent Instagram post, Daniel Cormier made it clear that he feels like Silva doesn’t have anything left to prove.<\/p>\n

Legends in any sport have a hard time walking away, @spiderandersonsilva has done so many special things in this game. He doesn\u2019t need to fight anymore, ultimately this choice is his but I\u2019d like my memories of the spider to be in the organization that made him a superstar. I wouldn\u2019t have wanted to see Micheal Jordan playing in China to keep playing.<\/a><\/p>\n
