When Silva had originally stepped into the Octagon with James Irvin, it was a personal test for him to see if he could compete with the heavier guys. It now seems as though he wants to make it a little more interesting.

The reports that are surfacing are mentioning that Anderson Silva's next opponent will be one of the two losers from UFC 92's two Light Heavyweight showdowns.

This would put Wanderlei Silva, Quinton Jackson, Forrest Griffin and Rashad Evans as potential opponents for Silva for the UFC's February card at the O2 Arena.
