Wanderlei Silva apprehensive about taking fight with Brian Stann

By Jason Benfari January 25, 2011"We were actually trying to hook [Silva] up with Brian Stann. He doesn't want to fight Brian Stann. He's like, '(expletive) that; everybody is going to hate me if I fight Brian Stann. Everybody loves Brian Stann.' But that's the fight we're trying to make right now." -Dana White UFC light-heavyweight legend Wanderlei Silva appears somewhat apprehensive about taking on "All-American" Brian Stann according to UFC president Dana White. White, answering a question from a recent Q-and-A session before UFC Fight Night 23, revealed that he's been having trouble getting Silva to sign on for the fight, with Silva, always conscious of how fans perceive him, being less than thrilled about taking on the former Marine war hero.*Content originally appeared on FiveKnuckles.com
