In what can be considered an unlikely scenario, UFC legends Anderson Silva and Tito Ortiz are set to meet in the boxing ring on Triller Fight Club pay-per-view. But before they do, the former UFC champions faced off for the first time Thursday after the pre-fight news conference at the Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort and Spa.

You can watch their staredown in the video above.

“Triller Fight Club: Legends 2” takes place Saturday at the Seminole Hard Rock Resort & Casino in Hollywood, Fla. The event is headlined by a fight between former boxing champion Evander Holyfield and former UFC champ Vitor Belfort.
