New reports are claiming that Anderson Silva, the former MMA fight champion is back after recovering from his injured leg thirteen months ago. Silva suffered the injury to his tibia and fibula in a fight against Chris Weidman, also known as "The Spider."

Since then Anderson Silva has been on road to recovery. He trains regularly and is in a pretty good shape now. In a recent interview with Fantastico, he was quoted saying that he no longer feels the pain of the injury and his strength is back.

Being in rigorous training, has made him better than before. But he was also quoted saying that he does lack a bit in the confidence department, since he's continuously haunted by the fear of getting hurt again.

Nevertheless he is constantly surrounded by his doctors who watch over his training and ensure that he does not over exert himself. He's also reportedly consulting a psychologist to get over his fear of getting back in the game.

Moreover, Silva has returned to Rio de Janeiro to complete his training camp for UFC 183 and he will make his comeback in the Octagon on January 31, 2015. He will be facing Nick Diaz, former Strikeforce welterweight champion.

In another interview, he was quoted saying that he will win his title back, which means that the match is definitely something to look forward to. He's back with a bang, and hopefully his of injury won't haunt him any further.

There were also talks about him retiring in coming near future. But it is uncertain to say whether he's serious about it or not. All in all, fans of Anderson Silva are happy to see the champion fighter back in the Octagon.
