Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva LIVE!
Jake Paul remains undefeated as a professional boxer after claiming the best win of his fledgling career to date in Glendale, Arizona on Saturday night. ‘The Problem Child’ was returning to the ring for the first time since his emphatic knockout in a rematch with Tyron Woodley last December, having seen proposed bouts with Tommy Fury and Hasim Rahman Jr fall through.
As expected, UFC icon Silva provided the toughest test so far for Paul, who contested several close rounds before gaining more control and finally knocking down the Brazilian, who made it to the final bell but was defeated on all three judges’ scorecards. After moving to 6-0, Paul immediately called out Nate Diaz and Canelo Alvarez for future showdowns.
There was plenty of intriguing action on Saturday’s undercard, with another fearsome knockout for teenage Paul prodigy Ashton Sylve and a fine win for Alexandro Santiago, while ex-UFC middleweight Uriah Hall beat former NFL running back Le’Veon Bell and former MMA fighter Chris Avila was victorious over YouTuber Mikhail ‘Doctor Mike’ Varshavski.
