Fan-favorite UFC fighter Georges St-Pierre could possibly face Anderson Silva in his comeback match. In a report by forbes.com, it is somewhat likely that the most dominant welterweight and middleweight in MMA history will clash.
Silva has been serving a one-year suspension for use of PEDs. The concern for Silva would be his willingness to fight at a catchweight. As per mmafighting.com, the weight class is very important for St-Pierre.
"There were conversations before but they were talking about me going up at 185," said St-Pierre. "I weigh 190 pounds, the guy weighs 230 pounds when he is off season. I'm 190 pounds off season. Right now I'm 195 at maximum."
"My friends saw him and he is now 230, 235. I know people who know him. He is very big. It's not a fair fight for me. Before, Anderson Silva was in my size when he used to fight in Japan but he is very big now."
"They were talking also that he was going to come in my division when I was the champion and I would have no choice," he added. "But me going up and after I fight to go back down...I can't play with my weight."
"I can't come back and fight for the title or in a super fight. It has to respect my conditions, all I ask is a fair fight. Right now I need to take some time off. But if they have an offer with something good, maybe."
Another obstacle is St-Pierre's willingness to fight again. In an interview reported by bloodyelbow.com, the fighter said he is still unsure. "I don't even know, myself," the fighter said.
"It depends on a lot of things. I haven't made my decision. I haven't made my decision yet because I don't know. I'm not the kind of guy to say I'm going to retire and then come back, I don't like to do that. I just don't know."
