Two of the biggest idols in Brazilian sports currently met on a TV show in the United States. Unfortunately, only one of them was real – the other was just an imitation. Participating in the “Nación ESPN” attraction in Los Angeles, Anderson Silva had fun with the doll of Brazilian football star Neymar.
The Ultimate middleweight champion recorded the “encounter” in his Twitter and used one of the expressions popularized by the football player in the comment. “Participating in the 'Nación ESPN' program in LA (Los Angeles) with the participation of my partner Neymar… It's toiss!”, published Anderson, who laughed when using the greeting from the Barcelona athlete's group of friends.
The “Nación ESPN” profile on the microblogging network also paid special attention to Spider's participation, playing with the relationship between the fighter and the Neymar doll. “In his visit to 'Nación ESPN', the champion Anderson Silva made it clear that he prefers Neymar to Messi. #UFC 162”, he said, commenting on the image in which Anderson appears side by side with his compatriot, leaving the Argentine player in the background.
Even with the relaxed atmosphere, Anderson Silva is just a few days away from another great challenge. Next Saturday (6), in Las Vegas (USA), the Brazilian will defend the Ultimate middleweight title for the eleventh time. Spider faces the undefeated North American Chris Weidman in the main fight of UFC 162.
