last week's news but...

I wonder how much truth is behind this, not questioning the source, I mean if he actually feels he can go through with this.

I'd give him a 100 fight contract if he'd agree to fight Jon Jones.

Silva should just stand in the ring and say "who wants a shot at the champ?"

Each of these 'contenders' can come out one by one and get decimated.

They can call it UFC: 'The Spider'

Makes no sense on account he wants to the majority of 2013 off.

I guess it makes sense, but IIRC, the UFC has been able to negotiate salaries in the middle of the contract based on performance (pretty sure this happened to CC and Jardine). If AS loses 5 fights in a row and the UFC can pay him $10K to fight, I don't see a downside. I also don't see a downside if they can sideline him indefinitely.

He won't fulfil it, but the long contract means that any comeback he makes from retirement would have to be witb the ufc

Sounds plausible. He doesn't have to do all 10 fights.

If he successfully defends his title 10 more times, he'll have surpassed even Fedor as the greatest of all time.
