I see a lot of you are disappointed about Anderson pulling from his fight. But I actually feel differently. In my opinion, it's a good thing Anderson won't be fighting. He hasn't looked good in almost three years and he is older than the sugar at the bottom of your breakfast bowl. My sincerest wish is that he do some soul searching during his recovery and come to the conclusion that he needs to retire.
I don't want this guy to tarnish his legacy anymore. And I certainly don't want to see him get another gruesome injury similar to the one he got versus Weidman. Silva just doesn't look right for fighting anymore. His head is shaped weird now and his bones have a lot of imperfections in them. He's risking his health for very little gain. At the end of the day he is not capable of doing better than he has already done. His best stuff is in the books and he's done writing interesting chapters.
He should be at home with his family. Instead of training to get punched in the face, he should be baking cookies with his wife and showing his kids how to do division problems. He should also indulge a new diet now that he doesn't have to watch his weight. I would recommend he take up Papa John's on their offer of two large two topping pizzas for $6.99 each.
It would be cool if Anderson went back to school. I could definitely see him enjoying and doing well in law school. With a law degree he could help fighters in their disputes with the UFC. And he could also do pro bono work for poor favela Brazilians.
Acting is also a possibility. Anderson is charismatic and funny. He could potentially do a partner action film with sensei segal where they go around town doing deadly stuff to bad guys.
If he's into animals he could become a wildlife advocate in Brazil. If Anderson stood up for some of the most poached species of animals, I could see poachers ending their ways out of respect for Anderson.
Another possibility would be making a cooking appliance similar to the Foreman grill. Foreman made a killing off of his stupid grill. Millions of people bought it because they liked George so maybe Anderson could use his popularity to sell a soda-maker.
What about politics? He could do that too, easily. At this point politics is a joke and anyone can run for office. An idiot like Donald Trump is doing well so Anderson definitely get into politics and have success.
I've also noticed that athletes have had a lot of success selling their brand of sneakers. If Anderson were serious about maximizing his popularity, he would get a deal with a major sneaker brand and have them make a signature shoe for him. "What are those?" "These be those new Spider Andy's"
Or, if he lacks ambition and just wants to be a free soul, he can always move to Portland and become a hipster while learning how to fingerpaint and eating off of food trucks.
Just no more fighting, that's all.
