Anderson Silva v. Vitor Belfort Off UFC 108 Card

MMA Junkie gets the story from Anderson Silva’s manager Ed Soares:

The story of Silva’s negotiating tactics and is it/isn’t it elbow injury has been well covered over at BloodyElbow.com. The real important thing here is that the UFC has already had trouble finding enough main events for the number of shows they want to put on and now both Silva and Lyoto Machida are on the sidelines with injuries and uncertain return dates. Add in Georges St. Pierre and his injured groin and that is three UFC champions who are on the shelf.
