The Irishman says he"accepts" a fight challenge from Spider -- but that doesn't mean you'll see them in the Octagon anytime soon.

Here's the deal ... Anderson posted a statement on social media late Wednesday night calling for a superfight with Conor at a 176-pound catchweight. "I have immense admiration for the great athlete that Conor is and I believe that a super fight would go down in the history of the sport," Silva said ..."neither of us need to prove anything to anyone."

"I believe that fans of the UFC and of this sport would like to watch this great martial arts spectacle, it would be fantastic to test my martial arts skills against him!!"It's a good start -- but obviously, the UFC would also need to get on board ... and

Ok

last time he fought a guy who'd lost 20 times now he fights a 50 year old. we see you, Conor.

Easy 💰

Silva is old now so this isn’t so exciting, but prime Anderson Silva would’ve destroyed Conor

Well yea Silva is like 45 lmfao

Who v who?

If you pay for this you’re a sucker

That would be uh-mazing!!! 💪🏼

Silva in his prime yes hands down

WHY IS ANDERSON SILVA STILL FIGHTING 🗣️🗣️

Anderson Silva can't fight on that level anymore

RIGHT UP TMZ'S ALLY...WHITE VS. BLACK!!!

RIP Coner Godspeed bro

Not this I want to see.

Let's go Spider 🇧🇷

I actually think McGregor might lose this.

Ahh this will be deleted as soon as the coke party finishes.

Speaking of “Silva”... Mike Silva wrecked it on the latest “Don’t Me”! Check out the latest: Apple: Spotify: YouTube:

desperation, a fight nobody wants to see

Got my attention...Conner has everything to lose be careful

He accepted so many fights but actually fought nobody.

Conor fights another irrelevant man.

A lightweight accepted a fight against a middleweight. This is not a super fight any measure.

Dude is 45 come on now 😂😂😂😭

Not happening Conor McGregor pitched the Silva fight years ago and im pretty sure Dana shot it down. Conor needs to fight Gaethje f*ck all that other bullsh!t.

LOL 🗑 ufc Reminds me of Hopkins vs Kovalev

I’ll buy a ticket to see that fight

Silvas a legend the GOAT in my opinion but damn man.. time to hang it up and Conor shouldnt take this fight.

Conor should never fight again, he's a punk!

he only fights bums now!! The easy wins. He is scared of losing like Ronda became scared.

Jump the shark

Silva is weak

Running away from Usman

Of course he would accept a fight with a guy who lost 6 of his last 7. Typical Conor

Now's not the time to promote this shit.

chew1988

Silva old. Not interesting at all.

Such an unfair fight

Noooooo Silva is old & slow now

diogosbitten clsbittencourt

This is a waste of time.

God no

Oh...I want to see this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💵 on Silva!!!! 💯💯💯

Pointless fight
