Bigfoot Silva could be in the UFC “real soon”, says manager

Daniel Cormier eliminated Antonio Bigfoot Silva from Strikeforce heavyweight tournament with a first round knockout, and the Brazilian’s next fight has a chance to happen out of the Strikeforce cage. “He has a contract with Strikeforce, but Strikeforce is now controlled by the UFC and we’re watching Strikeforce fighters going to the UFC all the time,” Silva’s manager Alex Davis told TATAME. “UFC’s heavyweight division is big, but they could have even more, and I’m sure Bigfoot will be in the UFC real soon”. Davis says nothing is set yet, but he hopes to see the heavyweight inside the octagon. “There’s a lot of great fights for him inside the octagon, and he’ll shine there”. SourceTatame
