Wanderlei Silva has his next challenge at middleweight when he fights Yoshihiro Akiyama at UFC 116 and the former Pride Champion and MMA Legend talks about the upcoming bout and also lets everyone know that he isn't going anywhere anytime soon:

“Professor Rafael Cordeiro will coordinate and give directions to the sparrings to do the way it has to be done (trainings). Akiyama is tough, a good guy who has been an athlete throughout his life. He does well on the ground and is very strong. It’s going to be a very interesting fight, a great one for me because he’s a guy who fights and open the game, not a man who runs. I believe it’ll be a big show. I want to fight for more six years, at least until forty’s. This change of category was good. I had to re-educate myself on food matter and I’m feeling very well”.
