Anderson Silva, Jon Jones get together for sparring session
A superfight between Anderson Silva and Jon Jones never happened, but for a brief time on Monday night, the two masters got together for a sparring session.
UFC boss Dana White tweeted the photo evidence on Tuesday, along with this caption:
“The Superfight between @jonnybones and @spiderandersonsilva went down last nite @ufc headquarters #noppv #noticketssold #rockyvsapollo”
Thanks, way to tease us all, Dana.
Fans have been dying for a GSP-Silva superfight, or a Silva-Jon Jones bout. Silva’s consecutive losses to Chris Weidman have taken some of the luster off a potential superfight, but I still would love to see it. That is, after Silva beats Nick Diaz first.
