UFC 153’s Erick Silva wants to slow pace of fast-moving career

RIO DE JANEIRO – The UFC’s Erick Silva said his goal is to move his career along slowly and attack bigger challenges as he progresses as a fighter.

“If you ask me right now, I’m not going to say I want the belt because that’s how I work in my career: in slow steps,” Silva told MMAjunkie.com.
