After a brutal knockout loss to Chris Leben at UFC 132, one might think that Wanderlei Silva might consider taking a bit more time off. Well, think again. Not long after that, Silva was approached via text message to determine if he would be ready to step in for an injured Vitor Belfort in his match against former Strikeforce Middleweight champion Cung Le.

UFC 139: Shogun vs. Henderson will take place November 19th, 2011 at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, California.
