    I also agree it's not a must have fight, also each one of them are in their respective division and have nothing to prove in other divisions.

    BTW, does GSP still fight?

    We all know they are, so let's get this super fight on before Silva uses the excuse of retirement to avoid determining who is the best fighter between the #1 & #2 MMA fighters not only in the UFC, but the best MMA fighter in the world... that's how this super fight needs to be spun and marketed in order to build the hype to an apex and set the PPV record for the most viewers and buys ever.
    I agree. Jones' response was just plainn stupid. He and Silva should both want to prove that they are the best ever. There's no way to prove that without beating the other. I say put the belts on hold and lets see who the baddest dude on the planet is. PS- Maggie Hendricks sucks!!!

    As much as I'd really like to see the fight, as I would have with Anderson/GSP, I'm not sure why, when there is dominant champions in different weight classes it is assumed that they should fight each other! If so why do they have different weight divisions for these guys to compete in? It should be completely up to the guy to decide whether he wants to change weight class, after all he competes in the one he is in because that is the one he is comfortable fighting in!

    Anyway....let's make it happen Dana, Anderson/Jones....(did I just completely contradict myself?!?!?!)

    Even when I'm 100% certain of a fight outcome, I'm only 75% sure... and of that, there's only a 50/50 shot that I'm right.

    Too many people prefer the blue pill... me, I prefer the red pill.

    Hold your horses there, wait for Jones to defend his belt 10x then we'll argue if he is greater than Silva or not.

    Jones has already beat better calber fighters than Silva has....

    To me , if these 2 really want to achive greatness then they will fight each other. Ive been impressed with jones defending the belt the way he has , didnt mind choking his team mate machida out. Thats greg jackson in his ear , no jones dont lose us our money


    I really didnt expect this from jones , he has demolished shogun , evans , machida , rampage but he wont fight silva!?!?
