|  Jones says Silva superfight 'can happen,' but doesn't want to be 'guy who beat' Silva
Jones says Anderson Silva superfight 'can happen,' but doesn't want to be 'guy who beat' Silva Quote:
Jones, who's been upfront about his own lack of interest in the fight, has recently been making the media rounds in Brazil and it seems as if the elephant-sized, dangling carrot of a monster payday has already started softening his initial hardline stance.
"I respect [Silva] a lot," Jones said to Brazilian outlet Correio Braziliense. "As I said several times, I do not want to be the guy who beat Anderson, and do not want to be the guy who lost to him. Anderson is a great champion, I'm a great champion. We both..." At that point Jones trailed off, before picking back up. "I don't know. I don't know.
"I'm not saying that the fight will not happen. It can happen. But it's not something I'm chasing.
"I don't believe that I need to fight with Anderson to be the best in the world," Jones concluded.

| Sooner or later jones will get asked a line of questions by a clever reporter and will undoubtedly stick his own foot in his mouth. This will make the oh so sensitive Andy silva start asking for the fight. The second that happens. It on.

He needn't worry, he won't be.
Because that guy is already Ryo Chonan.

Anderson Silva isn't Rashad Evans nor is he going to disrespect his teammates by going after the title. Jones' could start talking shit like Chael Sonnen and that fight still wouldn't happen nor will the money move Silva.

Here comes another infraction for fighter bashing...
What. The. Fuck. Ever. Jon Jones and Anderson Silva.
Stop being pussies and sign the fight already. The excuses are getting highly fucking annoying. You both look like bitches right now. Simple as that.
