"Wanderlei Silva Has facial Surgery Ruling Him Out For A Year
World of Combat can reveal that the exciting mma superstar and the former Pride FC champion Wanderlei Silva will not be competing for a year. This is due to the extensive facial surgery he has had to remove scar tissue form his face. This quashes the possbilty of Silva competing in te UFC this year against the rumoured opponent Michael "The Count" Bisping.
There have been numerous pictures posted through out the internet where it is fairly evident that the surgery has had a huge difference in the way "The axe-murdrer" looks. In a recent telephone call by World of Combat, a close associate of Silva confirmed that "Wanderlei Silva will be out for all this year and half of next year".
If the initial fight proposed to Silva was Bisping then the UK fans will have missed out on what could have been a great fight. Both fighters are exciting to watch and would have been looking to prove themeselves as both were comming of losses. This leaves the question as to who Michael Bisping will be fighting later this year at the UFC 105 event.
Lets hope Wanderlei makes a quick recovery so we can watch this "icon" of mixed martil arts sooner rather than later.
Stay tuned for further updates."
