Eduardo Cruz – Brasil Combate

Antonio “Big Foot” Silva is three weeks away from his return to the USA, where he doesn’t fight since sixteen months ago. The American Top Team fighter is going to face off Fabricio Werdum at Strikeforce and will try the seventh victory in a streak.

“Everything is going on greatly! Werdum is a good fighter, very experienced, cautious with a good jiu-jitsu. He is famed among Strikeforce heavyweights and I want to be between the best ones to get the chance to fight Fedor, so I have to look for a knockout or a submission victory over him” he told to Brasil Combate today.

Regarding to the striking aspect, do you consider yourself more prepared to perform standing than him? Do you believe this is the path to the win?

“Look, I have improved my stand up game in the past two years, I’m more confident, moving better, kicking and punching harder. I’m ready to any circunstance that may come up because my ground game is also very sharpened”.

Fedor Emelianenko and Brett Rogers are going to headline the event next November 7th, and the Brazilian athlete made some remarks about this match and a possible confrontantion versus The Last Emperor in the future.

“Fight is fight and everything may happen but I don’t see Rogers knocking out or submiting Fedor, despite his heavy hands. If you observe, he goes towards the opponent with his guard opened and Fedor hits very well in the short distance. I will be rooting to Fedor keep winning”.

“Every competidor from all sports wants to face off the best and I would like to fight him so much. It’s hard to know how it would go on, after all, Fedor is good at any game”.
