“This is [the] part of my life when I [don’t] talk [anymore] because my leg’s good now. I train hard now,” Silva said during a conference call to promote his UFC 183 headlining bout against Nick Diaz. “Everything is new. I don’t talk [anymore about] this, because this is the past.”

“ I’m very happy to be back because I [didn’t] fight for one year. Now I’m very excited because it’s my legacy, it’s my dream,” he said. “The new Anderson’s back. …The UFC gave me one more chance for showing my [skills].

“ My focus now is the fight with Nick,” he continued. “When I finish the fight with Nick [and] I win, I [will prepare] for the next level. But now I’m starting my career in the UFC. This is my first fight in the UFC in my mind.”
