Anderson’s move to 205 will not be permanent

Anderson Silva’s move to the UFC’s light-heavyweight division will not be permanent, according to the Brazilian fighter’s manager Ed Soares.

Reports have suggested that Soares had told UFC president Dana White that Anderson wanted to make the move permanent and give up the middleweight belt.

“That is totally false; I never said that to Dana,” Soares told ESPN.com. “I never had my arm around Dana saying something like that, [not] whatsoever.

“The only time I recall Dana saying what was said in the Yahoo! story – (‘I like that. We can make that happen, I like that) – was when Anderson’s assistant came up to Dana and said something to him. But I don’t even know what he said to Dana.”
