'Jacare' Souza admits he'd be 'super upset' if teammate Anderson Silva cuts the line and gets UFC title shot

RIO DE JANEIRO — Anderson Silva believes Ronaldo Souza deserves the next shot at the UFC middleweight title, but would understand if the UFC offered him the shot from a business standpoint.

“Jacare" is not a fan of his possibility, though.

Souza and Silva, who train together at X-Gym in Rio de Janeiro, are slated to meet Tim Boetsch and Derek Brunson, respectively, at the UFC 208 pay-per-view card in Brooklyn on Feb. 11, and “Jacare" told the media how he would react if the promotion gives “The Spider” a fight against 185-pound champion Michael Bisping next.
