“I believe Georges St-Pierre does not take the real challenge,” Silva said at a press conference for his new gym, Spider Kick, in Los Angeles. “He just tries to do something easy for yourself, but this is Georges St-Pierre. He’s so smart. That’s the game, that’s the business. He’s a business man.
“For me, I prefer to take real challenge. Don’t put nothing in the mind of my fans, (saying) ‘maybe yes, maybe not.’ That’s why I accepted the fight with (Daniel) Cormier in two days (at UFC 200). That’s the difference … it’s not about fighters – it’s about martial arts. I like challenge and I try to do my best every time.”
“I believe 180 (pounds) is good for me and McGregor,” Silva said. “I’m just waiting, because I don’t control this. This is a question for Dana, but I believe this an amazing fight for the fans.”
The first amazing fight on tap, however, is a breakthrough against Adesanya, with the decorated legend beating back the surging up-and-comer. After that, Silva is moving on.
“This is the moment to take this fight and finish all my fights,” he said. “I have three more and then it’s done. It’s over.”
