Report: Jake Paul to Box Against UFC Legend in October

A boxing match against Silva would provide an intriguing matchup for the 25-year-old Paul, who was scheduled to fight Hasim Rahman Jr. on Aug. 6. That bout fell through whenPaul most recently fought former UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley in December 2021, winning with a sixth-round knockout.

Silva, 47, held the UFC middleweight title from 2006 to ’13. He’s 2–0 since returning to the boxing ring in 2021, with wins over former MMA star Tito Ortiz and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

jakepaul If people keep buying this why would he fight a real boxer?

pittman_nairobi jakepaul I’ll quit watching ufc/mma/boxing FOREVER ♾ if Anderson Silva loses.. it’s in the photo

jakepaul So Jake Paul is now taking on a non-boxer who is old enough to be his dad, who actually watches these?

jakepaul If he doesn't pay Silva off to take a dive, Silva will destroy him.

jakepaul I hope Silva doesn't choose to throw this fight like Woodley did 😩

jakepaul SpiderAnderson is 155 yrs old …….. wtf !!!!! Is anyone seriously watching this I refuse to watch a true ufc legend get knocked the f—- out by jakepaul …….AnyOneButHim

jakepaul I wish this dude would fight real boxers also I want Silva to knock ‘em out which won’t happen because…money

jakepaul Yeah, I can’t wait to pay $100 for another one of these fights

jakepaul I like Silva ~ Mighty half pay attention to this one... Though I think Jake is a joke and fights are fake overall... Hope I am wrong... PLEASE prove me and others wrong.

jakepaul If this happens; the average age of Jake Paul's last 3 opponents is 43 years old...

jakepaul I highly doubt Jakey boy has Silva on the payroll like the others. He'll get peppered, as he should.

Why doesn't he actually fight boxers
