Dana White shoots down Anderson Silva vs. Anthony Pettis: ‘Yeah, no’
Photo by Chris Unger/Zuffa LLC Anthony Pettis and Anderson Silva have both mutually agreed to fight each other via social media but, if UFC president Dana White has anything to do with it, that bout will never come to fruition.
White, who said some fighters have nothing better to do than ‘talk sh-t every day on Twitter’, shot down any possibility of Silva-Pettis at the UFC on ESPN 10 pre-fight media scrum on Friday.
“I saw that, that they were going back and forth. Him and Pettis? Yeah no,” White said, per Adam Martin of BJPenn.com. “Guys talk s—t every day on Twitter and social media.”
