Anderson Silva ‘s record-breaking run in the UFC has earned him an immediate rematch should Chris Weidman take his middleweight title on Saturday at UFC 162. “I’d do the rematch the next fight,” UFC President Dana White on Monday told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). “Guy hasn’t lost in the UFC ever, has beat everybody. He loses that fight, he’s the guy for a rematch if he wants it.” Silva (33-4 MMA, 16-0 UFC), who remains undefeated after 16 appearances in the octagon, remains a 2-to-1 favorite to beat the undefeated Weidman (9-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC), who has one less fight on his resume than the champ does title defenses. Should “The Spider” continue to reign and defend his belt for the 11th time, White said a superfight could be next. That would mean Silva would face light heavyweight champ Jon Jones or welterweight champ Georges St-Pierre . White said the Brazilian champ hasn’t cooled on a meeting with St-Pierre, as he indicated during a conference call this past week in support of Saturday’s pay-per-view event at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena.
