(Wanderlei after hearing Chael Sonnen dismiss churrascarias as "jungle bar-b-que") Few fighters embody the philosophy of "don't talk about it, be about it," more than former Pride middleweight champion
Wanderlei Silva. "The Axe Murderer" has always preferred action over rhetoric and so trash talk from him has been rare over the years. That's what makes it so fun when he actually does talk smack. About a month ago I interviewed Wanderlei for the
UFC and
Yahoo! Sports about his
upcoming UFC 147 main event, which takes place tonight. At the time he was scheduled to rematch his nemesis
Vitor Belfort, but now he's fighting
Rich Franklin. The animosity Wanderlei has for Vitor is such that he had no problem talking trash about him. Unfortunately, when the opponents changed, those quotes were lost to the world...until now. Below is not a traditional interview, but rather Wanderlei Silva trash talk highlights from that conversation in May. When prompted, Wanderlei had a lot to say about
Chael Sonnen and Vitor Belfort both, ranging from topics of respect, to cowardice to the difference between "big balls," and non-functioning testicles. I enjoyed hearing it all from the man himself so much that I had to share it with you, taters. Bon appetite.
