Filed under: Featured , Featured Videos , News , UFC , Videos BROOKLYN, N.Y. – Former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva bobbed and weaved on questions about his future, referring several of them to his boss, UFC President Dana White. Officially winless since 2012, Silva’s nose turned up at an inquiry of his viability at age 41. “It’s a good question,” he told MMAjunkie , then moved to answer another reporter at a media day in support of his fight Saturday against Derek Brunson (16-4 MMA, 7-2 UFC) at UFC 208. Cheered on by a pack of vocal fans who showed up to the boxing gym where the event was held, Silva (33-8 MMA, 16-4 UFC) was in good spirits, if uninterested in getting too deep about what lies ahead. Pressed further, Silva said his pay-per-view fight Saturday against Brunson at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., will be about demonstrating his passion for fighting – not about getting back in the win column, or winning a title shot.
