Silva is undefeated inside the octagon with 16 consecutive wins.  He has put together the longest title reign in the promotion’s history and defended his belt a record 10 times.  He holds the record for most finishes in the UFC with 14 and the most finishes in title fights with nine.  But at 38-years-old, his career is winding down. “Being that Anderson is, I think, towards the end of his career, I’m going to have to just pull for Anderson just because it’s like the end of it.  I kind of want him to go out hot,” said Rousey.  “Chris Weidman has an amazing future ahead of him.  He’s going to be around long after Anderson Silva leaves.  And I think that once Anderson vacates the division that Chris Weidman, it’s very likely that he’ll hold onto the belt for a while.  But you never know.” Rousey likes both fighters, but wants Silva’s legendary status to remain intact for at least one more fight. “I think they’re both very, very cool,” she said.
