Anderson Silva to face Roy Jones Jr. after 4-fight UFC contract is up
"It is undoubted that I will face Roy Jones. We have talked too much, have signed some contracts and we want to make it the sooner the better. It's not for money or spotlight, it's for my desire. I watch Roy Jones since he competed as an amateur and in the Olympic Games. I'm looking forward to this fight to put in the ring everything I know, to show my students in the future that I understand what I may say over this or that and don't seem a pirate parrot. Before that, UFC is my focus.
Dana treats me very well, as do all the staff of the organization. However I have to search what is better for myself. [I'm] very satisfied with my results [in the UFC] and I want to continue this way until the end of my contract. I have other projects and wish to get closer to my children. Maybe I will open a school in Curitiba to give the opportunity to students and friends and pass them my experiences of fighting as a coach. My contribution to MMA is getting to the top. I proved what I had to prove to myself but I still want to compete with kimono and in No Gi."
goblin says looks like talks are on again..im still not convinced he will stand much chance with boxing gloves against even this version of Jones..
