SILVA READY FOR REMATCH
Antonio Silva has said that he is ready for a rematch with Fedor Emelianenko after his win. In fact, the Brazilian juggernaut is open to a rematch with the former PRIDE heavyweight champion, should the two meet again in the foreseeable future.
Silva met with Emelianenko on February 12 at the IZOD Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey where he was able to dominate Fedor in the second-round of their heavyweight tilt, mounting the Russian and dropping heavy bombs. Eventually, the fight was halted in between rounds on the Doctor’s advice when Fedor’s right-eye had swollen shut due to the mounting blows.
Several outlets had the fight even at one round apiece, and have speculated the outcome of the match should Emelianenko had been granted to return for a third-round.
