08:32 PM ET 01.21 | Rashad Evans is focused on Antonio Rogerio Nogueira at UFC 156, but the former UFC champion isn't weighing out a move to 185 and a possible encounter with Anderson Silva. "It'd be a tremendous honor to have held the belt in two different divisions," he said on Monday. "But also the chance to compete against Anderson Silva, he's one of my favorites fighters to watch. I get excited every single time I have a chance to watch him fight. When my career is all said and done, I want to be able to say I competed against some of the best guys ever in history. For me to get the chance to compete against Anderson Silva would just be an amazing experience and something I'll take with me forever."
