Wanderlei Silva sent MMA fans into a frenzy late last night when he took to Instagram, in a now-deleted post, that teased several intriguing matchups at an event called Fight Club After Dark. The poster says the event will take place on November 21 at the Tyson Ranch, with the tagline, “Experience live MMA like never before under the stars on the Tyson Ranch.”
In the poster Silva is teasing Tito Ortiz vs. Rashad Evans in a trilogy fight and Fedor Emelianenko and Fabricio Werdum’s rematch. He also says he will be fighting Vitor Belfort on the card with two high-profile unnamed undercard fights on the event.
Belfort has now taken to social media himself to advise his compatriot to stop posting fake news and begin negotiations, he wrote.
“I’ll give you an advice, stop posting and start negotiating. Your request has been accepted. Stop posting fake news posters and let’s get it done.”
In a minute-long video Belfort tells Silva and his team to contact the ONE Championship CEO Chatri Sityodtong to negotiate the fight.
“My team, my manager have already called (Silva), and Chatri from ONE Championship said that this fight will happen,” Belfort said in Portuguese. “It’s only up to (Silva) now. He has to start negotiating with (ONE). He has to start moving for this fight to happen. There’s no other way.
“He wants this fight, so let me give you some advice Wanderlei, get in touch with (ONE) and dedicate, brother. I’m waiting for you. Stop posting fake news and little posters and let’s fight. I’ve already accepted, you have to start moving now.”

We may just end up seeing Vitor Belfort and Wanderlei Silva collide again.
Belfort and Silva first faced each other back at UFC Brazil back in October 1998 with the former earning the first-round TKO victory.
Back in December, Belfort revealed he was willing to give Silva a rematch and in a recent interview with Combate (via BJ Penn), “The Phenom” called for his old foe to keep selling the fight.
“Wanderlei, keep selling the fight. You will get a deserved beating,” Belfort said. “It will be a pleasure to be able to fight you again.
“And I’m warning you: try to work the straight strokes, it doesn’t come very open, otherwise you already know what you’re going to receive. Train hard and thank you for being part of the sport.”
Belfort went a step further by revealing that a rematch is currently being negotiated.
However, he didn’t reveal anything more as he remained wary about calling it a done deal just yet.
“It’s being negotiated,” he added. “I learned that we can’t talk much when things are happening. This fight, for sure, has to be carried out. I have every interest. When two are hungry and have a plate of food. But it has to be a very good meal for both.”
It should be noted that Belfort is currently contracted to ONE Championship while Silva recently signed with Bare Knuckle FC. If their contracts allow them to compete fight fighters in other organizations, then it looks like we might just end up seeing Belfort vs. Silva II.
