Anderson Silva could fight GSP

UFC President Dana White has admitted that Anderson Silva could face Georges St. Pierre in a superfight, following the Brazilian’s win on Saturday at UFC 97.

Silva failed to impress the fans in his fight against Thales Leites and White has admitted something needs to be done.

There have also been talks of Silva stepping up in weight in order to face more competition.

“Everybody’s chanting GSP,” White told MMAWeekly.com.

“GSP has probably the toughest fight of his career coming up. Believe me, GSP fans and crazy Canadians – do not overlook Thiago Alves. This guy is mean and nasty. Georges St. Pierre can’t start looking at Anderson Silva until he gets past Thiago Alves.

“I honestly think Anderson Silva needs to challenge himself a little more. Maybe we need to do another fight at 205. Maybe we go to 205 to somebody who poses a serious threat to him.”
