Conor McGregor appears to be on the cusp of yet another super-fight, but this time, he is staying in his chosen profession.
UFC fans are on edge after the Notorious agreed to fight Anderson Silva while responding to him on Twitter.
Silva wrote in his challenge:
“I have immense admiration for the great athlete that Conor is, and I believe that a superfight would go down in the history of the sport. Neither of us need to prove anything to anyone. I believe that fans of the UFC and of this sport would like to watch this great martial arts spectacle. It would be fantastic to test my martial arts skills against him!!”
Silva is often considered the greatest due to his long reign as UFC middleweight champ, while McGregor is one of the few fighters to hold belts in two different weight classes and is regarded as the highest PPV draw the sport has ever seen.
Even though McGregor agreed to the fight on Twitter, nothing is official until Dana White gets involved.
