OAKLAND, Calif.: UFC 117 nearly went down as the event that featured the biggest upset in MMA history.

Chael Sonnen lived up to the trash talk for almost five full rounds when went to work on Anderson Silva in the evening's main event, but came up short and fell victim to the champion's triangle.

Now, the question remains: who gets the next shot at Anderson Silva and when?

Dana White sat with a small group of media members after the post-fight press conference and talked about what's next for Anderson Silva, Chael Sonnen, the middleweight division and the rest of the evening's fights.

Check out Bleacher Report's video of the sit-down with the UFC president.
