First off, NERDSociety would like to wish Wanderlei Silva a Happy Birthday, Silva turns 34 July 3rd!
NERDSociety visited Wanderlei Silva’s gym, as he trained for his scheduled fight with Yoshihiro “Sexyama” Akiyama. Unfortunately, Silva suffered a rib injury and could not fight. It’s a shame because he worked so hard to prepare for the fight.
Wanderlei Silva is one of the sport’s most devastating fighters. His MMA career started in Vale Tudo matches in Brazil; no gloves, no problem. But, fame didn’t come to Silva until he started fighting in PRIDE FC, especially after he TKOd the legendary, Kazushi Sakuraba in the first round. Ferocious in the ring, Silva is one of the nicest person you will ever meet outside the cage. His saying is “I don’t have fans, I have friends.”
NERDSociety would like to thank Wanderei Silva and his crew for allowing us to visit his gym. Silva’s gym is open to the public and is located on 4631 Dean Martin Dr. Suite 300, Las Vegas, NV – (702)-538-8300.
