Video: Jon Jones and Anderson Silva spar

anderson silva vs jon jones

Two of the greatest fighters in mixed martial arts history went toe to toe earlier this week, but there was no pay-per-view to be had, no large venue for thousands to watch, and certainly no large sum of money being paid to either man.

Former longtime UFC Middleweight champion Anderson “The Spider” Silva caught up with current UFC Light Heavyweight champion Jon “Bones” Jones for a training session earlier this week, and Jones gave fans around the world a sneak peek at what went down.

Hopefully Jones will continue to reveal more and more footage of the sparring session for us to revel at. Too bad these legends will never step into the Octagon to face one another, but at least we can all enjoy just a few seconds of sparring between them.
