It was 11 fights in less than four years until Anderson Silva asked for some time. Not that he was tired of fighting, but the elbow was asking for a surgery. After the surgery, the UFC middleweight champion talked to TATAME.com in the end of October and said that he was crazy to “kick some asses”, but was waiting for doctors authorization. “I’m almost totally recovered, thanks God the recovering is pretty fast”, Anderson said, back to the gym. “I’m starting to train a little bit”, celebrates. Excited to the next year, the champion doesn’t know yet when he’ll be back to the octagon, but he’s excited: “2010 will be great”.
