Silva: “Conor Is Scared Of Me”

Earlier this year both Anderson Silva and Conor McGregor expressed interest in fighting one another, now Silva believes McGregor is scared to face off with the “Spider.”

Speaking at the launch of his Spider Kick brand, Silva told TMZ:  “I say let’s go do it. 180 is the perfect weight for me, I think it’s good for McGregor, and let’s go do it because that’s amazing. That’s for the fans.”

McGregor, who has never fought above the welterweight limit of 170, may take a fight at middleweight, but Silva feels that the former two-division champion is “scared.”

“It’s close to happening you know, but McGregor, come on, man. Let’s go do this. Don’t run, man, don’t run. You scared? I don’t believe that you’re scared, let’s go.”
