After the show in front of Stephan bonnar, at UFC Rio 3, Anderson Silva made it clear what its next objective is within the organization: to face Georges St Pierre. The Brazilian, in a very good mood, stated in the press conference after the event that facing St. Pierre, welterweight champion, would be better than a super fight against Jon Jones, owner of the light heavyweight belt.

“A lot of people think about (fighting GSP), it would be a big test for me. And it is a little smaller (than Jon Jones), it would be easier for me, I would get beaten less”, said Anderson, with a smile on his face.

In yet another spectacular performance, Anderson Silva sent the audience at the HSBC Arena into a frenzy. Before Stephan bonnar, the Brazilian lowered his guard, leaned against the cage in the Octagon, accepted his rival's punches and still sensationally knocked out the North American with a knee to the plexus.

Damn! stop bothering the guy with this Jon Jones guy, A Silva has already increased his weight twice and knocked out his opponents, he's going to do a great job with San Pierre, maybe it's time for Jon Jones to drop the weight and face Aranha, isn't he Bonzão? So try to lower the weight and challenge S'pider
Big Spider. In addition to being a great fighter, he has humility. Unlike others who are just loudmouths and when they enter the Octagon, they only know how to get beaten up.
This guy is just a fraud!!!
fight with the guy if he's cheating
Cheat???? kkkkkkkkkk what does he have to do to please him????kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
So he's really cheating!!!
fool me that I like
In other words, I’d rather beat a drunk than fight a big dog….
another Brazilian from the new crop… like Rubens Barrichelo talking about Ferrari and Schumacher…
Just like Nelson Piquet talking about briatore…
Just like Felipe Massa, obeying Ferrari and pleasing Alonso…
they cower against the strong and beat the weak to make a false name...
Is GS Pierre weak?? hauhahauauhhauuauhhuaa
So much ignorance...GS Pierre has held the belt longer than Jon Jones! Then challenge him...
clueless. He's the champion, he beat a guy in a category above him. Do you have any idea what it's like to fight against a specialist who is heavier than you? Do you know why fights are classified by categories, weight ranges?
It's not his weight, that's it.
I don't even know why I'm defending the guy. He doesn't need me to defend him. The guy hits like hell.
This A. Silva is a joke.
He never faced a decent opponent.
Yesterday's fight was ridiculous!!!
As ridiculous as GordoTauro’s!
LOOK MAN IF ANDERSON SILVA IS JUST A JOKE BECAUSE HE HAS BEEN UNDEFEATED FOR 6 YEARS AND HAS 11 BELT DEFENSES. AND FOR YOUR INFORMATION, MINOTAURO AND ANDERSON SILVA ARE ONE OF THE BIGGEST LEGENDS OF THE UFC AND SO SHUT UP BECAUSE IT'S BETTER TO KEEP QUIET THAN TO SPEAK BS, BORED, SORRY FOR BEING BAD BUT YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT A GOOD FIGHT IS ANDERSON SILVA END THE FIGHT WITH A SIMPLE KNEE YOU IGNORANT
Never faced it? You don't watch the combat channel, do you? You should only see the fights on Globo!
Dude, the subject here is UFC, not formula 1.
You can say that I don't understand anything about MMA, but the spider and the minotaur's opponents were ridiculous, they pitted a dead chicken against them so they could put on a show here in RJ, Erick Silva did get a real fighter,
People.
We are talking about a clash of professionals, each with their favorite martial arts. I don't see Anderson at a disadvantage to JJ. JJ against Berfort, whether we like it or not, if there were 10 clashes, he would win 9. The spider, yesterday, faced an average opponent, but who isn't that bad either, he simply humiliated, controlled, joked, talked during the fight, and he defined it in such a quick reflex that the foreigner thanked God he fell into a crouch, as he was going to be left faceless.
In short, I don't see any problem with Anderson facing JJ, they both have stature, skill and dirty play, which would be fun for the show.
They talk about Belfort against Aranha, but he didn't beat JJ, he took at least 50 elbows, as well as 60 punches on the knee, and financially he has a lot more money than Aranha and he didn't need to go through that in front of the whole world.
I was.
In other words, you Paulo Cesar, you are the typical Brazilian, bad manners, bad gratitude, drooling like a foreigner… go and fight with the handsome Jones! Anderson Silva has to be respected, he has a lot more fights and he has already taken down a lot of top people! Look at Jones and Anderson's record, don't talk nonsense, old man. Ugh, it's ridiculous how more and more people like you appear, who cower behind the monitor to talk shit and disrespect idols on the internet. Click on Anderson's name, then on Jones's, read their story carefully and then comment, don't publish any offense to the Brazilian nation, please, okay?
MAN, YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT QRANHA IS VERY GOOD. BUT HE WOULD ALSO SUPPOSEDLY HAVE TO FACE VERY GOOD GUYS, BECAUSE HE IS THE GUY TO BE BEAT AS THEY PLAY PORTUGUESE AGAINST BARCELONA HIS RECORD WILL ONLY BE INCREASED, BOTH ARE PROFESSIONALS BUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM IS VERY BIG WE LIKE TO SEE BARÇA AND REAL, THELCI, BAHER BUT ANYWAY ANDERSON IS A GUY WITH MANY FRIENDS SO HE WILL NEVER LOSE BECAUSE HE IS A FRIEND OF SHOGUN, LYOTO, JON JONES AND HE DOESN'T GIVE ME A CHANCE TO WIN A LITTLE MONEY AND BEING FAMOUS IS WORTH IT
I watched 3 of A. Silva's fights and I'm not going to watch any more, it's a joke, the guy touches his opponents and the judge ends the fight, in yesterday's fight against Bonnar he didn't even hit him, the guy threw himself and It ended up, in the fight against Chael Sonnem the guy was intact and had the ability to reverse the fight, the judge also ended up being a joke, these UFC guys never won anything in Bellator, because there's no marmalade there.
hauhauhauhauhuhauhaha…”he didn’t even touch the guy”…you must not have the nerve to say such nonsense, right!?
Gilmar S, how come you didn't reach it?! Silva threw a well-aimed knee at Bonnar's face, causing his head to rise half a meter!
Guys, I think that against JJ, AS would put on a show considering the beating Belfort took, there are people commenting that AS and Minotauro's opponents were chickens, so why aren't you going to fight against these chickens, you're not the good guys, be serious Personally, AS is much more champion than JJ, AS has history, I think Dan Henderson, Forrest Griffin, Vitor Belfort, Demian Maia, Yushin Okami, Rich Franklin, Patrick Côté, I think these guys are not chickens, so guys, it started watching UFC right now and you don't know what an armolock is, you should review what you say or else get up in the octagon and face the champion, when you're drooling blood on the ground, he's a spectacle, and for those who think JJ is so spectacular because He doesn't give up his belt and this category and faces Spider since JJ is good, Spider doesn't need to prove to anyone, not who needs to prove something and Bones who has now arrived in the UFC.
Anderson SIlva is definitely the Best! He doesn't have it for others, he's a UFC fighter, and whatever his boss decides, he accepts it. But of course I won't want to fight with a friend or brother if I put myself in their shoes. I understand Dana White wanting to keep the best piece of his chess... look at the troubles he faced, but at the right time the biggest ones come, too bad that around Anderson what they will learn, what they know becomes little. D White definitely plans a good one for the spider!!!!
