Anderson Silva Wants Georges St. Pierre, Will Go To Welterweight If He Has To

↵“I’d like to test myself and I always love to take on new challenges,” Silva said. “It’s not that I want to go fight Georges St. Pierre for his title. There’s no doubt in my mind that he’s the reigning champion, the absolute champion, in that weight category. But I just want to test myself and see how I’d do at that weight.”

↵↵- Anderson Silva sounds willing to go to welterweight to fight Georges St Pierre

↵Think about that for a second. Anderson Silva has owned middleweight for years now, with no one able to do more than win a single round off him. He went up to light heavyweight and put god awful beatings on James Irvin and Forrest Griffin. Now he wants to drop to 170 and fight Georges St. Pierre? And let’s not forget that it wasn’t that long ago that Silva wanted to put on weight and fight Frank Mir at heavyweight.

↵Maybe the rest of MMA should just quit trying, because pretty soon Anderson Silva will own every belt, anywhere, ever.
