Anderson Silva said today that he took a second fight with Chael Sonnen not only because the UFC employs him, but out of a duty to make Sonnen answer for his words.
He didn’t reach this conclusion, however, until he’d fought a verbal three-hour fight with UFC president Dana White in a hotel room as the media waited for them to announce the rematch.
“I guess sometimes, my opinion doesn’t make too much of a difference, but I’m here to fight whoever they put in front of me,” Silva today told MMAjunkie.com.
