After former middleweight champion Anderson Silva’s (33-5) first UFC loss to Chris Weidman (10-0) put a momentary halt to superfights featuring Silva, some speculated that these talks would only resume if Silva were to defeat Weidman in a rematch, which has been scheduled for UFC 168, the last show of the year.<\/p>\n

Pending the rematch<\/a>, Silva’s manager Ed Soares recently stated in an interview with Sherdog.com<\/a>, that the talks of a superfight are still very relevant, especially with a victorious Silva come UFC 168:<\/p>\n

“I think the superfights are still on the table. I think right now the superfights are in the future, but right now what should be on everyone’s mind should be the rematch with Chris Weidman.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

“If he comes back and beats Chris Weidman,” Soares stated, “I don’t see the reason why the superfights can’t happen.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Even with a second loss to Weidman, Silva’s legacy in the UFC is firmly cemented and although a loss may hurt hype and PPV buys for a superfight, lets not be hasty to put it out of the realm of possibility.<\/p>\n
