Former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva He has already declared, several times, that one of his biggest dreams is to face boxer Roy Jones Jr. But, even with Spider's suggestion, Jones Jr. may have another big name in MMA ahead of him in 2013: Quinton “Rampage”Jackson. According to the website MMA Junkie, the duel could take place in 2013.
Roy Jones Jr., 44 years old, is one of the main names in recent boxing history. Between 1989 and 2003, the boxer suffered just one defeat and won 49 victories, having been champion of several divisions and organizations. The North American also represented the United States at the Seoul Olympics in 1988. On that occasion, Jones Jr. won the silver medal in the light-middleweight category, being defeated by South Korean Park Si Hun in the decision.
Already Quinton “Rampage” Jackson is one of the most renowned fighters in MMA. The fighter, former UFC light heavyweight champion, became known to the Brazilian public mainly due to his time in the now-defunct PRIDE, where he led an intense rivalry with Wanderlei Silva. Recently, Rampage signed a contract with Bellator, Ultimate's main rival organization.
