All eyes will be on UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva as he looks to defend his title for a ninth time inside the Octagon when he takes on Yushin Okami at UFC 134. This will be the second meeting between the two middleweights, as their previous bout ended in controversy. 

Okami will look to defeat Silva in front of a crowd which will be heavily cheering for “The Spider.” As he has mentioned in past interviews, Silva has said to be prepared and motivated for his upcoming title bout against Okami and doesn’t intend to let their rematch end in controversy. 

In an exclusive video on TATAME.com, Silva is shown training on his boxing skills with boxing coach Cesario Bezerra at X-Gym in Brazil.
