He's a marketable MMA figure, an action movie star, and an ambassador of the sport in Asia. He's got enough of a name to headline an event, and he's got some exciting kicks, plus a highlight reel knockout of Rich Franklin. There's a question as to how many fights Le has left in his career at 42, but he hasn't taken too much damage, and got started in MMA late. This idea is given added weight as Ed Soares, Silva's manager, listed Le on a list of potential comeback opponents earlier this month. In fact, Le's name has come up before, prior to Silva fighting Weidman. Silva's camp basically knows that a match-up with Le would be a fun fight that would sell tickets.
