    In that we will hear a lot of bluster about it - but the fight itself will never happen?

    No because they are not fighting in the same weight division. Silva / Bones on the other hand

    Blag with an all time favorite gif, and GSP will continue to duck Anderson Silva.

    Spider vs Jones is clearly the Mayweather/Pacquiao of MMA. But let's hope it doesn't get 1/10th as frustrating.

    That fight was never going to happen. Gsp CLEARLY never wanted it. It was just Dana talking.

    Word is GSP wants Diaz and Dana will oblige. As predicted, GSP simply doesn't want to fight Silva. I don't believe out of fear, just simply he has nothing in his favour and the cons hugely outweigh the pros.

    Now we need to see if Silva will man up and face Jones, who he seems to not be too interested in. He'll do it, if the UFC put the money in like he expects.

    who gives a **** about mayweather/paqauio.. both fighters are on a slow slide now.
    it might have been good two years ago but neither fighter really wants it.
