Silva: Boxing Georges St-Pierre is possible, but ‘almighty’ Dana White needs to ‘stop being annoying’

[La Paix]

When Anderson Silva enters the boxing ring this Saturday to face fellow UFC legend Tito Ortiz in the co-main event of Triller Fight Club’s pay-per-view in Hollywood, Fla., he’ll already have another MMA superstar in mind for a future boxing showdown.


Speaking on the debut episode of MMA Fighting’s first-ever Portuguese-language podcast Trocação Franca, “The Spider” revealed that he’s going to push for the idea of facing former UFC two-division champion Georges St-Pierre in a future bout — a superfight that never came to fruition in MMA but could finally happen inside the squared circle.

“It’s a possibility,” Silva said. “Georges St-Pierre is a guy that deserves all respect. Not only him, but all fighters. Vitor [Belfort], Tito [Ortiz], [Oscar] De La Hoya — they are legends. And I think it would be an interesting fight, but we need the almighty to stop being annoying and let the guy move on.”

Show some god dammed respect, or you won’t like the consequences.

How does it work for GSP’s UFC contract, is he allowed to box but he has to give Dana a cut or does his contract stipulate that he can’t compete in other combat sports?

 

[DarthBader]

Yeah Dana stop being so annoying just throw your guys in there so they can be cannon fodder to youtubers and actual boxers while the UFC becomes more and more of a joke in the new generations eyes.

Ok, so sorry. Are we ok now that I’ve apologized?

Yes, because boxing is exactly the same as mma. Luckily randy beat Tony in boxing. If he hadn't, we may have had to call him darthbader.

They don't want to fight Youtubers. If you can read you will shortly find out that they'd like to fight each other. Silva also beat Chavez Jr. who is something of an actual boxer himself.

You and I have the same opinion.

And if that does happen, expect Tito to say he hurt his back in training camp.

He's already said that he was 240lbs 5 weeks ago. So he's planting a seed already.
