Legendary mixed martial arts veteran Wanderlei Silva spoke about how he reacted to the news that he was being included in the UFC Hall of Fame. According to Vanderlei, this event came as a surprise to him.

"I had no idea. It was a huge surprise. It made me feel really happy. You guys came so close to making me cry. I was very happy when I saw all my best moments,” ESPN MMA quotes the legendary Brazilian.

Let's remember that UFC CEO Dana White previously said that Wanderlei Silva deserved it, and that he and Lorenzo Fertitta were fans of the Brazilian when they first came to the UFC.
