No, not really, but that's the latest back-and-forth conversation between epic "Twitterer" and NFL Pro Bowl wide receiver, Chad Ochocinco, and UFC President Dana White:

"Dana this Ocho Cinco, I want to fight your #1 and #2 best fighters asap,exhibition to raise money for a charity of choice!!!!!! ... matter of fact I want Anderson Spider Silva---please don't ignore me or you'll have to fight me yourself!!! Sincerely Esteban :) ... Mr. White this a serious matter, we can help alot organazations with this fight, I have a good chance at winning against Silva ... Awesome! I'm fighting Anderson Silva-I can't wait to throw my child please combo with a kiss da baby leg kick,Silva can shut the front door! ... oh I'm dead serious, this will be one that goes down in history, Ocho defeats Silva in surprising upset, it's on!!!"

White responded:

"If you are really serious @OGOchoCinco, contact me. We'll put a fight together for charity.... I need a Jan 2nd fight. Ocho Cinco vs Anderson Spider Silva. PS - I'm too old to fight anyone."

Guess it's a better idea than sending mustard to the Pittsburgh Steelers (who play at Heinze Field) this weekend ... or maybe not -- "The Spider" has had brilliant success with Cincinnati-based opponents in the past.
