Rashad Evans Says Anderson Silva Is A Dream Fight | UFC NEWS


Former UFC light-heavyweight champion, Rashad Evans, had hoped to get in one more fight before the year’s end.

However, coming off a UFC 145 loss to Jon Jones and with the rest of his division tied up with other bouts, there is no one for the former champ to fight inside the top 10 of the weight class.

While spending time on the set of FUEL TV’s “UFC Tonight”, “Suga” explained why and what it would take to make the drop down from 205 to middleweight.

The video segment is below:

  1. Bob'O says:

    Rashad should fight Silva at 205. ~Bob’O

  2. Brend0magic says:

    I’d love to see Rashad at middleweight, he’d tear it up.

  3. T.DADDY says:

    Silva would KO Rashad

  4. saiasaka says:

    Silva vs Rashad made more sense than him vs chael sonnen

  5. Xaninho says:

    Silva would give Evans the stanky legs treatment.

  6. The Truth says:

    Rashad’s dreaming would actually be the result of fighting Anderson.

  7. DJ says:

    how about rashad vs weidman

  8. 123 says:

    Id Love To See.. Rashad Evans vs Glover Texiera & Chris Weidman vs either Michael Bisping or Jake Shields.

  9. Xaninho says:

    Hahaha Jake Shields…Juicing up and still delivering a boring fight. **** Shields

  10. CombatRusse says:

    I understand when Silva refuses bouts against fighters who’s obvious game plan is to take him down, hold him there and hope to win a decision.
    He has already fought a Fitch before.
    Silva now wants fun fights and neither Rashad, nor Weidman would bring him such a fun fight

  11. Blake says:

    But he wants to fight gsp???

    • CombatRusse says:

      Yes because GSP’s size won’t allow him to hold the spider on the ground.
      So Silva will get up and punish him and it will be soooooo fun to watch lol
