Anderson Silva a month out from #UFCLondon

#UFCLondon takes place in just under a months time and headliner Anderson Silva is stepping up his training ahead of his Middleweight clash with Michael Bisping.

Silva, the former UFC Middleweight Champion, has posted a recent training video on his Instagram account which shows him sparring with fellow UFC fighter James “Moonwalker” Moontasri.

You can see from the video below that Anderson is back and as motivated as ever and you can also see “The Spider” land a big takedown which isn’t a usual part of his arsenal, usually relying on his exceptional striking to take his opponents out;

Don't confuse a defeat with failure or a victory with success. In a life of a champion there will always be some losses, just like in the life of a some looses there will be some victories. The difference is that when a champion grows with his defeat, a looser gets comfortable with his victory. In my opinion to be a champ, is not to be better than anyone, but to be able to be better than yourself, take your talent as far as you can take, and elevate your knowledge to the highest level of your existence . www.silvamtc.com Não confunda derrotas com fracasso nem vitórias com sucesso. Na vida de um campeão sempre haverá algumas derrotas, assim como na vida de um perdedor sempre haverá vitórias. A diferença é que, enquanto os campeões crescem nas derrotas, os perdedores se acomodam nas vitórias,minha opinião. Ser um campeão não é ser melhor que ninguém mas conseguir ser melhor que você mesmo superar os seus talentos o máximo que puder levar seu conhecimento no nível mais alto de sua existência.
