Anderson Silva may be done with the UFC, but his name remains relevant in combat sports as a whole. On Monday, ESPN confirmed that “The Spider” is currently in negotiations to fight Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in a boxing match on June 19.

The planned bout was first announced during a press conference on Thursday. During the said media event, organizer Saúl Ríos revealed that it was Chavez Jr. who brought Silva’s name up as a possible opponent.

“It was what Julio mentioned,” he said. For now, there is nothing concrete, but he is you are looking for, we are negotiating. It would be a 10-round fight.”

Silva, who turns 46 this April, last saw action on Halloween night when he lost via fourth-round TKO to Uriah Hall. The loss marked his third consecutive defeat which led to his UFC release three weeks later.

The 35-year-old Chavez Jr., meanwhile, is coming off a fourth-round TKO win over Ecuador’s Jeyson Minda in November.

Silva has been repeatedly linked to a possible boxing match with Roy Jones Jr. in the past, but his UFC contract at the time had prevented it from ever materializing.

Very smart match making as far as commercial appeal. Fight smells like money. Could actually be a winnable fight for Bum Jr too.

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. has missed weight once again.

The son of the legendary Mexican boxer weighed in at 184 pounds Friday, two pounds over the contracted weight for his scheduled fight with UFC all-time great Anderson Silva, promotion officials confirmed with ESPN. The bout will go on Saturday in Guadalajara, Mexico, as part of an event called Tribute to the Kings. But Chavez Jr. will have to forfeit $100,000 of his purse to Silva, per officials. Silva weighed in right on the contracted mark of 182 pounds.

Chavez Jr. has had several struggles on the scales in his career. Most famously, he had to forfeit $1 million -- a third of his purse -- to Daniel Jacobs before a December 2019 bout.

Chavez Jr. has missed weight at least twice more in his career, with other additional bouts having to be changed late to catchweights. This 182-pound bout is heavier than Chavez Jr. typically fights at. Most recently, Chavez Jr. has been competing at 175 pounds. And he fought Jacobs and Saul "Canelo" Alvarez at the contracted weight of 168 pounds.

Tribute to the Kings also will feature Julio Cesar Chavez Sr., 58, returning to the ring in an exhibition to face Hector Camacho Jr., the 42-year-old son of his fiercest rival.

Chavez Jr. (52-5-1, 1 NC) has dropped three of his past five bouts, but is coming off a fourth-round TKO over Jeyson Minda last November. The 35-year-old Mexico native is the former WBC middleweight champion.

Silva is 1-1 as a pro boxer and has not fought in the boxing ring since 2005. But "The Spider" is one of the most decorated champions in UFC history, holding the middleweight title for seven years -- the longest reign ever in the UFC.

Silva, 46, also has the longest winning streak in UFC history (16). The Brazil native asked for his release from the UFC last year and it was granted. Silva has just one win in MMA since 2012 and has said he is likely done with mixed martial arts, though he might continue to pursue interesting fights in other combat sports like boxing.

Probably no way Silva wins this but it would be great if he did. At least he's got an extra $100,000. So there's that anyway.

That was great. Silva was great. The judge scoring the fight 77-75 Chavez, not so great.

[KSTAT124]

Not a great night for either of JCC's sons. Omar lost his rubber match with Canelo's brother Ramon by unanimous decision.
