Ever more accustomed to the cameras, having appeared on pretty much every Brazilian media outlet in the wake of the August UFC Rio show, Anderson Silva looks likely to take up an important venture for the small screen in his country. According to the column “Olá” in this Tuesday’s issue of “Agora São Paulo” newspaper, the UFC middleweight champion will be the official commentator for the UFC broadcast on the Globo network.
The “Spider” should debut in this new role of his on November 12 during the UFC on Fox 1 event featuring Cain Velasquez’s title defense against Junior Cigano. The event will be broadcast live by Globo in Brazil from Anaheim, California.
