Anderson Silva: ‘I'd like to test myself against Conor McGregor because he’s an interesting martial artist’

Anderson Silva is a fighter who never shied away from any challenge. Even during his heyday, “The Spider” was willing to fight anyone, even outside his home weight class.

Silva is currently hoping to pick up his first win since 2012, as he faces Derek Brunson at UFC 208 on February 11th. But at the same time, he is already looking for that new challenge, possibly against current lightweight champion Conor McGregor.

“I'd like to test myself against Conor because he’s an interesting martial artist,” Silva told the media during a pre-UFC 208 scrum (via MMA Fighting).
