The Best Pound-For-Pound Fighter, Also The Best Ever Fighter In The World?

Without further ado, we’re talking about Brazilian Anderson “The Spider” Silva.

Silva is UFC’s Middleweight Champion of the world with 10 consecutive wins and many say he has made his weight division so boring through his seemingly invincible fighting style that the calls are getting louder for him to either lose weight to fight against GSP or gain weight to fight against Lyoto “Dragon” Machida.

Silva’s MMA record is pretty amazing: 25 wins vs. 4 losses!

His last loss was over 4 years ago via disqualification by illegal side-up kick against Japanese Yushin Okami.

Silva’s fighting arsenal is more than just impressive in my book. It’s overwhelming and at times overbearing for any opponent.

Besides being a long-time Black Belt in Taekwondo, Judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, “The Spider” is a highly trained Muay Thai fighter and Western boxer.

He turns 35 in April and has expressed plans to retire fairly soon, whatever soon means. His UFC contract still calls for at least 3 more fights. We will have to wait and see.

In the meantime, check out some of Anderson “The Spider” Silva’s career highlights and be impressed:
