UFC Middleweight contender Yushin Okami, currently sidelined due to injuries, says he is hoping to return to action in September. And not surprisingly, he wants Anderson Silva, who Okami is the last fighter to beat although Okami feels he los their fight (Okami's win was by DQ).

Akiyama trains with Okami and has even said he has much to learn from Okami.

If Henderson beats Bisping and Marquardt defeats Maia, maybe it will be time for Okami to get his much deserved crack at Anderson Silva.

I would like to see Okami v Sonnen or Cote...a win against either guy makes it pretty much a direct slap in the face not to give the guy a shot.

He won't step straight back into the Octagon with a title shot.

Cote is returning from injury too, so maybe he they should face each other. That is a fight i would like to see.
