Video of the Day - Carneiro v. Silva

Here is UFC champ Anderson Silva fighting Roan "Jucao" Carneiro at Meca Vale Tudo 6 which took place in Curitiba, Brazil on 1/31/02.

Anderson (33-5, 16-1 UFC) will next attempt to reclaim his middleweight title in a rematch with Chris Weidman at UFC 168.

Carneiro (15-9) is certainly no slouch in his own right, picking up wins in the UFC against Rich Clementi and Tony DeSouza. He has also defeated Matt Horwich, Jorge Patino and Luis Ramos in his career.

*You might recognize that the ref for the bout is none other than Pedro Rizzo.
