DETROIT — After suffering through bruised ribs that affected his last week of training camp, a subsequent fight against Chael Sonnen, and lingered on for months afterward, UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva has resumed training in the last 10 days in preparation of his UFC 126 title defense against Vitor Belfort, his manager Ed Soares told MMA Fighting.

Soares said that after a few attempts at resuming training were ultimately aborted, Silva is finally at 100 percent and back in the gym in earnest.
