NFL lockout 2011: Chad Ochocinco vs Anderson Silva in the works?

183070_197695680254396_100000418967615_676629_2412801_n_medium

With the NFL lockout looming large, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver, Chad Ochocinco, is once again flirting with a prospective trip to the Octagon. And UFC President Dana White is egging him on:

"If that CBA doesn't get resolved @ochocinco ur gonna have to fight Anderson! I'm ready whenever u are. Let's do it!"

The artist formerly known as Chad Johnson took that and ran with it, calling out Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva:

"@SpiderAnderson just a warning, after the CBA expires tomorrow please be very afraid, I'm free to participate in whatever! #fightme ... Quan where you at? I'm getting ready to whoop Anderson Silva a$$"

Step aside, Georges St. Pierre. National Football League fans the world over may be facing the dreaded notion of no football next year, but Ochocinco plans to keep busy no matter what happens. The NFL's association with MMA has grown quite a bit over the past few years with top reporter Jay Glazer, a good friend and training partner of legendary former UFC champion Randy Couture, training players in the sport to help get them ready for their respective seasons. So why not make the jump all together? Matt Mitirone, a former defensive end for the New York Giants, has enjoyed a successful Octagon career to date, amassing a 4-0 record after appearing on The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) season 10. Sure, this talk of Ochocinco making his way to the cage is likely just that -- talk. But why not have some fun and speculate on how "8-5" would do if he ventured into the UFC? Anyone think he, or any current player for that matter, could make some noise in MMA?

i think charley sheen coked out stands a better chance

Ocho cinco would have an 8.5 inch hole in his ass after anderson rapes him, but I’m sure anderson would call him back he strikes me as a gentleman

It’ll never happen. Just as it shouldn’t. Wtf does he know about fighting?

Funny thing is that if this actually did happen all you dana ball lickers wouldnt even think for a second of calling it exactly what it is a freakshow

With that said no it wont happen ocho cinco aint trying to get his ass whooped while millions of people are watching.

Michael Westbrook

is a former NFL WR who fights MMA, so I’m sure w/ the right training quite a few guys could do well. Maybe not championship level, but decent.

the two douches’ (t.o. and cinco) show at the beginning of the season made me cringe, then the universe rewarded them with their season.

Damn bandit why you gotta say things like that its hurtful. Ocho cinco always says stupid shit then doesn’t follow through like when he said he’d change his name back if revis shut him down then revis spanks that ass and he bitches up. Anyways to my point he’s just talking for the sake of talking.

Ocho is a pro and he's used to going up against much larger men! He would kick Silva's a@@ all over the ring!!!

Just kidding! This would be better suited to go down in one of the old “Celebrity Death Matches” than in the Octogon! Seagal would teach Silva some kinda “spinning cartwheel sommersault ear kick” that would cause total kidney failure in Ocho, thus resulting in rapid DEATH!

whoa, take it easy 85

i know he thinks really highly of himself, and maybe he could be competitive in the sport, but he cant just go straight for the champ. Start low with some realistic opponents before even begin to think of dreaming of taking out the best of the best.

No chance at mma but maybe boxing

If this was just a boxing match Chad might stand a chance. He is actually a pretty decent boxer. He trains in the off season and does a lot of work was Freddie Roach.

Freakshow Fight

Even more than the Toney fight considering Ocho isn’t a pro fighter in any form. But maaaaaaan do I want this to happen.

How about

Andre Johnson the wide reciever from the texans. He ripped off finnegan’s helmet off and punched the shit outta him this past season! Or how about tampa bays running back lougerat (or however its spelled) blunt that dude threw a mean right hand at a boise state player after the game when he played at oregon. Knocked the guy out cold then went after some fans ill try and find a picture or video.
