Anderson Silva beats Forrest Griffin

Anderson Silva proved he’s still one of the best UFC fighters in the world after knocking out former light heavyweight champion Forrest Griffin in just 3 minutes and 23 seconds at UFC 101 “Declaration” on Saturday.

Aftter the fight Silva was asked if he’d continue to fight at middleweight or move up to light heavyweight.

“I want to fight against the best,” Silva said. “Whoever the best is at the time, that’s who I want to fight.”

Up next for Silva will likely be a another match with Dan Henderson or a fight with his close friend Lyoto Machida.

“These two are friends,” UFC President Dana White said. “It has nothing to do with friendship. It’s about who’s the best. It’s about competing against somebody else, no different than a basketball game or a football game. If Anderson gets to that point where he starts taking out 205-pounders, I’ll make that fight. I promise you, I’ll make that fight.”

Both opponents would make for a great fight, but we’d still favor Silva against either one.
