At the 7:45 mark, Silva said:
"Once again I think the UFC proved that UFC has the best fighters in the world. If there was any event out there that would have the balls to put together a team to fight a UFC team, there's no doubt in my mind that it would be a slaughter."I don't think it's ever going to happen, but I do think Silva is right: A UFC team would whip a team made up of fighters from any other promotion.
My MMA Top 25 includes 11 fighters from UFC and another four from the sister promotion WEC, so parent company Zuffa has 60 percent of the world's top fighters under contract. On my list, Dream has four of the Top 25, Affliction and EliteXC have two apiece, World Victory Road has one and one Top 25 fighter, Randy Couture, is unaffiliated. Affliction put on a great show, but UFC is still the undisputed champion.

I bet if Dana White made the comment that Anderson Silva did the execs in some of the other organizations would be saying some negative things, but when a guy like Anderson Silva says it what can they say, that he doesn't know what he's talking about? I am sure Dana was liking this.
