If you're wondering why Wanderlei Silva is so beloved by MMA enthusiasts, just watch the video below of his recent question-and-answer session with UFC fans in Las Vegas. Silva, who has produced some of the most brutal knockouts in MMA history, showed an extreme kindness and humility in talking to the people, which is not what you would expect from someone nicknamed "The Axe Murderer."Some of the topics Silva talked about were his upcoming fight against Michael Bisping at UFC 110, his favorite fights and why he is no longer striving for a fight against Anderson Silva.

Wanderlei is a true legend in the sport of MMA.
If anyone deserves to be given a couple easier matchups it's Wanderlei. I think Bisping is a tailor made opponent for Wanderlei. I see Bisping doing ALOT of running in this fight.
Give him some subtitles! haha. I loved when he said "Nice to meet you, you so nice." To that little girl. Wanderlei's awesome.
Wanderlei just became my favorite MMA fighter with that video!
He seems like a totally cool person that can kick the crap out of anyone.
Haha, gotta love Wand. I'm always rooting for him, and I'd love to see him make another run for a title.
The guy has a soft side. Damn!
In a sport now with a lot of posers, there are few fighters that are absolutely true warriors. Silva is a warrior. Silva started out fighting in bare knuckle matches in Brazil. A lot of fighters owe their careers to this guy for putting MMA on the map.
I totally agree with dave91732. This guy brought in a lot of the real fans to MMA. Most of my buddies who casually watch haven't seen his Pride days. He's past his prime at this point, but it opens their eyes when I show them an old fight.
I have been a fan of Silva for years and I can't stand that Bisping, I hope Bisping gets knocked out..
I hate seeing him take punishment, because I think he's too hard nosed to go down until he takes a full knockout blow, and has suffered damage over the years for it.
This guy was an absolute killer back in pride before a few injuries. I would love to see him get back to his old self.
hell yeah. There isn't another weight class to run away from. He can't cut down to welterweight.
I love his fights and his personality...I think he is capable of beating Bisping but not a good enough for a championship run...
Good for W. Silva; he would not stand a chance against A. Silva at this point of his career.
What a class act. Win or lose...I love to watch Wand fight!
I never comment in any MMA news, but this is just too heartwarming to ignore. WHO KNEW this guy was SO nice to talk to?! I wanna hang out with the guy! Have HIM teach my kids some tricks! The effing AXE MURDERER!
War Wand!
Bisping is no match for wand !
wand is awesme how good wud it be 2 c rampage vs wand 4 and thn mayb 5!!!
ahhhhh hopefully 1day
You wont meet a bigger fan of the axe murderer, what a likeable individual, and an amazing fighter. Highlight reels are loaded with this guys explosive knock outs, however, that being said, I predict Bisping winning this fight. Let me make this clear, I hate Bisping, he's a loud mouthed, trash talking a$$hole, and I don't know of anyone who celebrated his face being smashed more than I did. But I see Bisping being a clear cut winner in this match, time will tell, and I am sure you will let me know if I am in error.
Punchdrunk
Bisping? u think bisping will win?
well i guess we can agree to disagree, but i sure hope your wrong.
i never knew silva was this nice though, and what a a$$ for him to knock out. i sure hope.
Wand is great for the sport of MMA. A professional and a warrior.
