The 39-year-old publicly fielded offers from companies all around the world, but the former Pride FC Middleweight Champion made the decision to take his explosive style to Bellator MMA.

His wars with Куинтон "Rampage" Джексон, Тіто Ортіз, Mirko Cro Cop, Вітор Белфорт, Ден Хендерсон |, Сакураба, Chuck Liddell, and Michael Bisping are the stuff of legend – but Silva is far from ready to close the book on his illustrious career.

He now looks to continue to provide his award-winning, entertaining fights inside the Bellator cage.

Silva has several options for his first fight with Bellator. Although he has spent the majority of his career at 185-pounds, one of the things that his fans love most about him has been Wanderlei’s willingness to fight the best of the best – even if it was up two weight classes at heavyweight – as proven by his heavyweight wars against guys like Mark Hunt, Gilbert Yvel, Kazuyuki Fujita and Cro Cop; Or, his battles against light heavyweights like Ortiz, and his most recent opponent, Brian Stann, who he knocked out in the second frame.

Click below for “What to Watch: Уоррен проти. Caldwell”

SANTA MONICA, КАЛИФОРНИЯ. (Лютого 29, 2016) – This Friday, Bellator MMA returns to Spike for the third consecutive Friday with "Bellator 151: Уоррен проти. Caldwell.” The event takes place from the WinStar World Casino & Курорт в Thackerville, ДОБРЕ, and features a main event between highly touted undefeated bantamweight Darrion Колдуелл (8-0) challenging former two-division world champion and the self-proclaimed “Baddest Man on the Planet” Джо Уоррен (13-4).

Квитки на "Bellator 151: Уоррен проти. Caldwell” are on sale now and start at just $45. You can purchase tickets at the WinStar World Casino and Resort Box Office, as well as Ticketmaster.com and Bellator.com.

Джо Уоррен (13-4) проти. Darrion Колдуелл (8-0)

Warren has just about done it all under the Bellator MMA banner, winning titles at featherweight and bantamweight during his nearly six-year promotional tenure. Зараз, Warren has his sights set on another run with the 135-pound title, a belt he lost during an intense encounter with Маркос Гальван early in 2015. A 2006 Pan American and World Champion in Greco-Roman competition, the 39-year-old will test himself against a young competitor who excels in the same skillset that Warren has used to his advantage for most of his career, боротьба.

With five impressive outings in a little over a year and a half under the Bellator MMA umbrella, it was only a matter of time before “The Wolf” found himself in a position to compete for a world title. The next stop on the road to championship gold goes through Warren, a man who has held Galvao’s belt already. A standout on the wrestling team at NC State University, the 27-year-old Caldwell most recently submitted Шон Букет via rear-naked choke in the first frame, adding to his tally of finishes (4). Initially a featherweight, Caldwell looks much more comfortable now at 135-pounds and as he proclaimed during a recent interview, “I foresee myself competing against Joe [Кроляча садок] with a No. 1 contender shot on the line, sooner rather than later.”

Фернандо Гонсалес (24-13) проти. Гілберт Сміт (12-4)

Gonzalez took a brief hiatus from MMA to compete in the kickboxing portion of the groundbreaking "Bellator MMA: Динаміт 1 " event in September, losing a tightly contest decision to world-renowned striker Павло "Семтекс" Дейлі. Gonzalez now returns to his comfort zone of MMA, where he has strung together an impressive four-fight winning streak. A veteran of the Scott Coker-founded Strikeforce promotion, as well as World Extreme Cagefighting, Gonzalez has been competing professionally since 2003.

Smith will be making his Bellator MMA debut against a fighter who is currently in the midst of a four-fight winning streak. "Плануючи Magic” is on a bit of a roll of his own, coming into the promotion riding a two-bout winning streak. A veteran of UFC and most recently RFA, Smith won the regional promotion’s welterweight belt in June, defending the title one time before signing with Bellator.

Ямаучи до (19-2) проти. Bubba Дженкінс (10-2)

Yamauchi comes into the fight riding a wave of momentum he’s caught after wins against Майк Richman, Мартін Степлтон, і Исао Кобаясі. The 23-year-old Japanese fighter has only lost once in six appearances under the Bellator MMA banner and has notched 15 з його 19 wins as a professional by way of submission.

It’s hard to ignore Jenkins inside or outside the Bellator MMA cage, being that “The Highlight Kid” also doubles as a podcast host during his free time. The Arizona State alum notched two straight wins to cap off 2015, недавно, an impressive offensive display against a promising prospect in Йорданія Парсонс.

Сірван какао (12-3) проти. Джо Таймангло (21-6-1)

Taimanglo will be making his seventh appearance under the Bellator MMA umbrella, and is riding a two-fight winning streak. A Guam-native, “The Juggernaut” has stopped his opponent in 21 of his victories and has only lost twice in his last 14 бої. Look for the 31-year-old to make an impression against the bantamweight division’s newest commodity.

Kakai is one of Bellator MMA’s latest signings, joining the fray after a two-fight stint in the UFC. “Zohan," 26, hails from Sweden and owns 10 finishes in his 12 victories as a professional fighter. With a bantamweight title fight one-week prior and another marquee 135-pound pairing in the main event, it will be interesting to see what a win does for Kakai in the grand scheme of things.

Spartan did have his moments during the heavyweight encounter, securing takedowns in rounds two and three, followed by a knockdown late. Але врешті-решт, Kongo received the benefit of the doubt from the Kansas-appointed judges. The Frenchman has now won two straight, and improved to 6-2 overall under the Bellator MMA banner.

It only took Девід Rickels (17-4) three minutes and 49 seconds to finish Боббі Купер (12-6) in front of a sellout crowd at Kansas Star Arena on Friday. Both men had their moments during the action, but after a knee to the body dropped Cooper to his knees, “The Caveman” pummelled his foe with hammerfists until referee John McCarthy called a stop to the action.

Кендалл Гроув (23-15) зупинився Франциско Франція (13-4-1) with a vicious punch 35 секунд після початку другого раунду, winning by knockout. The victory was an emotional one for “Da Spyder,” who recently lost his brother and made it clear his performance was dedicated to his late sibling. Grove has now won three of his last four tilts, all via finish.

Чука Вілліс (7-2) руками Гастон Рейно (5-1) the first defeat of his mixed martial arts career on Friday, winning via unanimous decision (29-28, 30-27, 30-27). The scrap went back-and-forth over the course of 15 хвилин, with multiple submission attempts and knockdowns by both men. But in the end – much to the delight of the partisan crowd – Willis earned the nod.

Former Shamrock FC Flyweight Champion Rebecca Ruth (6-1) переможений Lena Ovchynnikova (10-4) одноголосним рішенням суддів (30-27, 29-28, 29-28) in the opening main card fight at "Bellator 150: Конго проти.
