Roy Jones vs Anderson Silva ?

[Von Milash]

in boxing, yes, but silva is one of the truly talented mixed martial artist in the world. still a bit of a small pond, there are a lot of scrub in mma, but silva is'n't one of them. in mma, he takes roy down. silva has outstanding brazilian jiu jitsu.

They need to do a best of three with maybe chess or spelling as the third event as both will destroy the other in their own chosen sport.

In boxing Silva would get embarrassed by Roy and probably wouldn't land a punch.

In MMA Roy is unconscious on the floor with his arm broken and Silvas legs wrapped round his head sending him to Jesus inside the first 30 seconds.

I take Jones to win the chess match and spelling comps though unless the spelling is in Spanish

I'd watch :-)

But if the boxing match is first, Silva may never recover from the brain damage he recieves!
If the MMA fight is first RJJ may never walk again after he is snapped in half!
Whoever had their chosen fight first would have a huge advantage!

HAHA im not taking u seriously by the way......

In a straight boxing fight, Roy could potentially hurt Silva very badly

Yea I really like Silva too, one of the only MMA fighters I really like to watch, very fluid athlete. But he'd be out of his mind to agree to box Roy Jones Jr.

Just found a recent interview where Ed Soares, Silva's manager, is talking more about the fight with Jones:

ED SOARES: "I THINK ROY JONES WOULD BE THE PERFECT OPPONENT!"

I don't know why Silva is thinking of this change though, he's very dominant in mma right now.
Only money will induce this change.
