Following his impressive first round TKO Victory over Vitor Belfort at UFC Fight Night 106, Kelvin Gastelum called out “The Spider.” Well, ask and you shall receive. The two fighters are now set to face off in June’s UFC 212 in Brazil.
While Gastelum is now doubt pleased with the recent announcement, Anderson Silva has just come forward with his opinion on the sudden match-up. He may be even more excited about the event.
Via Instagram, Silva said “brasil brasil brasil brasil BRBRBRBRBRBRBRBRBRBRBR @ufc.”
News that “The Spider” will be fighting on his home turf seems to have elated the seasoned warrior.
Anderson Silva is riding a unanimous decision victory over Derek Brunson at UFC 208, breaking the fighter out of a nearly 5 year losing streak.
