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:
