<p>UFC middleweight champion has repeatedly and fervently discussed boxing Roy Jones Jr, but in a text to Yahoo Sports' Kevin Iole, Jones says he is considering MMA.</p>
Kevin Iole @KevinI
I'm stunned, but I just got a text from @RealRoyJonesJr and he said he is planning to talk to @danawhite about fighting MMA. Whoa.
What do you think UG? How would Jones do in MMA? And how would Silva do boxing Jones?

roy looks thick solid tight 
No time on the mat means he gets choked out in the first round. I'd like to hear he spent 6-12 months with Roger Gracie every single day and gets Roger's seal of approval first.
If he can avoid takedowns, he'll be a savage. If not, this is a freak show fight.
i don't think silva would take him down or even use elbows, knees, kicks. it'd be a boxing match in a cage basically 
I think it would be cool if he came over to MMA to fight Anderson. I bet Silva wouldn't even try to take him down, he would keep it standing and just box.
RJJ would get slaughtered
SN moved to conspiracy ground - i don't think silva would take him down or even use elbows, knees, kicks. it'd be a boxing match in a cage basically
This. Silva wants to test his boxing vs. RJJ. He isn't going to spoil his dream by taking him down. He already knows that he can do that.
Silva has maybe 3 fights left, if he wastes one of them on a freak-show fight with a hasbean I'll be pretty pissed off.

I agree. Silva wants to prove himself as a boxer too much to try to take him down and end it early.
Jones loses via KO by kick/knee in MMA
Jones loses via KO in boxing.
Now if it was a prime RJJ it'd be a close boxing fight. I'd still give the edge to Silva tho.
It would be terrible if RJJ catches him with something then it ruin the real super fights that ppl wanna see.

Silva has more tham 3 fights left bro
Silva wants to box him, not fight him in MMA. I think everyone knows that's not fair.

You Don't Know Shit About Boxing.
PRIME ROY JONES JR. WOULD SPARK THE FUCK OUTTA ANDERSON SILVA.
Easy Work.
We'd see anderson shoot a double once he got touched a few times.
if Dana does Roy vs Anderson it would be the dumbest fight ever. When Anderson eventually loses the title then you can get away with making this circus fight.

This.
Sorry fans, isntead of doing GSP/Silva, Silva/Jones or even Silva/Vitor 2 we are gonna do SIlva the GOAT vs washed up boxer in an mma fight.
Its one thing to do a boxing match which is still stupid, its another thing to do this as an mma fight.
