It appears as if Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva nevertheless has some strong resentment towards his UFC 156 opponent, Alistair Overeem. The heavyweight name opposition continued the verbal barrage of Overeem alongside discussing his teaching for heavyweight champ Cain Velasquez. Silva talked to MMA Junkie radio on Wednesday about his former opponent and the heavyweight champ. "He spoke a tad too much, and he got what he deserved... Overeem, he's nothing more than a joke," Silva said. Certainly Overeem was extremely comfortable heading in to UFC 156. The comments created by Overeem and the pre-fight press conference lit up the Internet and his confidence was beaming during his walkout. Overeem walked to the Octagon like he was getting ready to put a massive rave rather than battle a heavyweight like Silva. However, Overeem dominated the first two times but the Brazilian rebounded effectively in the third by releasing a fury of hits to complete Overeem in the third round. The win, together with his KO of Travis Browne a year ago, have powered "Bigfoot" in to title competition and the Brazilian may challenge Velasquez at UFC 160 for the heavyweight title. Silva admitted that his training camp for Velasquez will soon be very different than that for his round with Overeem. "I believe Cain Velasquez is a real professional...It is going to be good, because my enthusiasm is going to come from my wish to win the belt and be the success, maybe not from wanting to show myself to a specific opponent," Silva said. The Brazilian reported that he will undoubtedly be dealing with Olympian Steve MoccoAas well as fellow UFC heavyweight Shawn Jordan. The Olympian Mocco is a teaching partner from Silva's first fight with Velasquez nevertheless the Brazilian thinks the rematch will have an alternative result. "It is going to be a really different struggle, and I'm going to just take this strip back once again to Brazil," he said. "I am 1,000 per cent comfortable because of this battle, and I'm feeling really organized. I think he really deserved the win that night. That has been his evening, and he did an excellent job. He's a great coach, a great team and implemented the proper approach. The amount we combat at, whoever makes the least problems wins the fight." Silva will need an almost perfect performance to oust Velasquez at UFC 160. The heavyweight champion is apparently without a as great wrestling is possessed by him coupled with a solid stunning foundation. Velasquez can also be possibly the most readily useful trained heavyweight in the world and won't run out of fuel in a five round fight. Even though Velasquez totally wrecked Silva in their first meeting, rematches typically do not play out in similar fashion, and I expect UFC 160's meeting to look different even if I think the outcome is going to be the same.
