Anderson da Silva (born April 14, 1975) is a Brazilian mixed martial arts fighter. He is the current UFC Middleweight Champion. With 10 consecutive wins, Silva holds the longest active winning streak in the UFC and the record for the longest winning streak in UFC history. Anderson holds a Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira who follows Gracie Lineage through Carlson Gracie, ergo Murilo Bustamante and the Brazilian Top Team.
He currently trains with UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Lyoto Machida through Black House. Silva is currently ranked as the number one middleweight in the world by multiple MMA publications; Sherdog and Yahoo! rank Silva as the top pound-for-pound fighter in the world.
Since 2006 he has been the UFC Middleweight Champion, and he is also the last Cage Rage Middleweight Champion and former Shooto Middleweight Champion. Besides the UFC and Cage Rage, Silva has fought for a number of other MMA promotions including the Pride Fighting Championships, Shooto and Rumble on the Rock. Silva holds notable victories over Dan Henderson, Nate Marquardt, Hayato Sakurai, Carlos Newton, Patrick Côté, Forrest Griffin and Rich Franklin.
Although known primarily for his skills in Muay Thai, Silva is a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu which he earned in 2006 from Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira. He first started martial arts at age 14 doing Tae kwon do and earned a black belt by the age of 18. He is also a black belt in Judo and a yellow rope in Capoeira.
Once a member of the Chute Boxe Academy, Silva left to form the Muay Thai Dream Team. In late November 2006, he joined new team Black House with Lyoto Machida, Vitor Belfort, Assuerio Silva, and the Nogueira brothers. On May 16, 2008 Silva and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira opened the Team Nogueira MMA Academy in Miami, Florida.
Silva is married and has four children.
Professional boxing career
Anderson Silva is said to have had two professional boxing bouts. Allegedly on May 22, 1998 Silva took on, the then 10-2, Osmar Luiz Teixeira and lost by second round TKO. He stepped back into the boxing ring in August 2005 to face Julio Cesar De Jesus. De Jesus had never boxed before as a professional and Silva won by KO in round two. It is worth noting that no footage or definitive proof of the Teixara bout is known to exist aside from an entry on the boxing archive website BoxRec.
Mixed martial arts career
Silva initially fought in the Mecca organization in Brazil. Silva lost his first fight to Luiz Azeredo by split decision. After that fight, he went on a nine-fight winning streak, winning six of those fights by either submission or TKO. After winning his first match in Japan he was put up against Shooto champion Hayato Sakurai on August 26, 2001. Silva beat Sakurai by unanimous decision after three rounds and became the new Shooto Middleweight Champion (at 167 lb) and the first man to defeat Sakurai who was undefeated in his first 20 fights
