The Silva story is down both on your link and through a Google search. I wonder if it was taken down on purpose?
I found a Google cache version here:

Well, at least his manager is saying he’s definitely going to finish out the 6 fights on his contract. With the long-ass periods in between fights for most UFC guys, though, it seems like he’d really have to cram them in to meet his goal.
Speaking of Silvas, I just read that Wanderlei vs Rampage 3 is gonna happen on the same night (UFC 92) as Forrest Griffin/Rashad Evans and Nogueira/Mir. That’s gonna be an insane card.
