On March 20, 2011 I wrote here that Jon Jones should fight Anderson Silva, or at least that's the one fight that makes sense (as opposed to GSP vs Silva). And after taking the belt from Rua in a dominant and destructive fashion, defending it against Rampage and then recently putting to sleep Machida, Jones vs Silva is the best match-up!
Unfortunately this might not yet happen cause business wise, Dana probably won't risk putting out the flame of Jones yet. Plus there is still not enough market demand to see these two fights, and demands sell tickets.
Maybe 2 years from now or even earlier, if we see these two destroy every opponent then it would be inevitable that they face each other to settle the best pound for pound MMA fighter.
