American UFC middleweight Derek Brunson I am absolutely confident that he will win tomorrow over the famous Brazilian Anderson Silva. Moreover, he is going to finish the legendary “Spider” ahead of schedule.

“Uriah Hall has the same level of striking as Silva. I don’t know if he is stronger or not, but I managed to knock him out. Many fans consider Silva to be the best fighter of all time. In his last battles he suffered defeats, but under what circumstances was this? The fighting was very close. I have no doubt that Silva will be in great shape,” Brunson said.

The Silva-Branson fight will take place on February 12 at the UFC 208 tournament in Brooklyn, USA.
