Anderson out till end of 2013

Anderson Silva is now Semi retired and will probabally only have a handfull of fights that he deems important enough.

Bisping has called for his fight with Vitor to be for the Interim title and I agree. Not that either man has earned it but if Anderson is allowed to hold on to that belt and not defend to 2014 there needs to be an interim champ. (Weidman should be the man getting a shot at it)

So GSP will probabally have to fight again win loose or draw unless he is prepared for a lengthy lay off. If he wins he can defend the title.

Im thinking if he looses he should have a go at moving up for a catchweight fight to get an Idea of wether Anderson would be too big or not. Im sure there are some small Mw's who would meet him half way.

TBH I think this is another attempt by Silva to engineer more money and probably forcing the fight with 'ickle Georges. It's quite clear he is not interested in fighting Wiedman and If Bispsing beats Vitor I guarantee he will be back defending his Title late spring/early summer
