After returning in style from Georges St Pierre to the octagon (remember here), Dana White, president of Ultimate, turned all his strength to the hyped duel of champions between GSP and Anderson Silva. At the press conference after UFC 154, the director stated that he will not ask for efforts to ensure that the fight between the middleweight champion and the owner of the welterweight belt takes place in the first half of 2013.

"Anderson Silva Want, I want… (My job) is to make it happen. I’m going to make this GSP fight happen… Probably around May”, said White.
Dana also said that Anderson Silva told him during UFC 154 that he “is ready” to face St. Pierre, despite having announced last week that he is on vacation until the end of 2013. However, White said he would give St-Pierre time off to rest for a few weeks before discussing the possibility of the duel.

In the call for material you wrote Silva wrong
Funny, the AS weighs an average of 98 kg, the GSP weighs an average of 85, that's 13 kg more because you're not challenging JJones who weighs the same as him. then the bag pullers on duty think AS is too much,
JJ also cuts weight. And you don't say anything.
Because he is a marketer on duty
When will the fight of the century between Anderson and Jho Jhones be?
