Anderson Silva Continues To Push For “Super, Super Fight” With Conor McGregor

Former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva was a guest on TMZ Sports recently, and when the subject of a potential fight with Conor McGregor came up, “The Spider” put it all on the table.

Silva is scheduled to meet Jared Cannonier this Saturday night in the co-main event of UFC 237. And from the interview, which you can watch in the video below, one would guess he will be calling out McGregor post-fight.

“I think it is a super, super fight for the fans,” Silva said. “It will make a lot of money, come on boss (Dana White).”

Below is the current fight card for UFC 237: Namajunas vs. Andrade:

The UFC returns this Saturday night with UFC 237 live from the Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

In the main event, Rose Namajunas defends her strawweight belt against top contender Jessica Andrade.

Andrade continued her march towards the title fight with a bout vs. Karolina Kowalkiewicz last year at UFC 228 in Dallas.
