It's just been confirmed what was already widely known that Jake will be fighting former UFC fighter Anderson Silva. I'm not really sure this is any tougher than Tyron Woodley given Silva's age but it won't be a push over either. Personally I was hoping Jake would get the Tommy Fury fight sorted but I guess we'll have to wait for that now. Hopefully Jake fights a true boxer after this because people won't stop complaining that he's only fighting washed up fighters way past their prime and that isn't going to change with this bout given Silva is pushing 50.

Just saw this news. I am so sick and tired of this kid and his brother fighting these old dudes who aren’t even boxers. I mean Anderson Silva is 47 years old. I guess if I could fight someone who played a different sport, is much older and past their prime yet still make millions of dollars I’d do it to. I just want to see these dudes actually fight a legitimate boxer their own age.

Regardless I’ll be tuning in hoping for a Silva KO.

Well I would prefer a proper boxer and someone of similar age like Tommy Fury but Silva has taken up boxing now and fought twice in 2021 with two wins as well. The age is still an issue though, but I think this is still a risky fight for Jake. If he wins then people will just say the same thing they did about his other fights - too old, washed up, not a proper boxer etc and if he loses, well, then he's lost to an old, washed up, non-boxer. Jake really needs to keep a hold of that unbeaten record as it pushes his stock and hype up with every fight and once it's gone it's gone. If he doesn't fight a 'true' boxer next then he should just go back to YouTube boxing and try fight KSI if KSI has the balls for it.

This could be fun fight to watch and I am expecting for Jake Paul to release new provocations towards Dana White and UFC payment system.
Age difference is big and last fights I watched Silva you could really see him getting slower and weaker, and boxing is going to be even harder for him.
It's surprising that some bookies made Silva a slight favorite in this fight, but lets see exact rules and odds from more bookies.

I completely agree! Jake Paul is not even a real boxxer in my eyes. He is just an influencer with too much time on his hands. He cannot face real opponents so he chooses aged boxxers because then he might even stand the tiniest of chances. That being said I really really hope that Jake Paul gets his lights knocked out hard. I want to see Anderson Silva embarrass Paul like he deserves. And that actually very well might happen. Even though Anderson Silva is 47 years old, he is by no means a pushover. In fact, I think Jake Paul severly miscalculated his chances at winning. Anderson da Silva is a a former UFC Middleweight Champion and holds the record for the longest title reign in UFC history.

And for good reason too!

People need to stop watching these fights then they will magically go away as there won't be any money in it.  I watched the first couple I will admit but they were boring at best.  How much money these dudes making off the fight is that public?

[YOSHIE]

The fact that Paul believes Silva is an all-round boxer is acknowledged directly by Paul, but Paul still wants to fight Silva next October 29, it was strengthened again by Ariel on twitter who stated Paul vs. Silva is officially against Paul, the schedule that has been set is only eight rounds.

I'm sure Paul is excited to want to do a fight with Silva, because he believes Paul can beat Silva like he did to Askren MMA professional boxer yesterday 2021, why I say that, because I saw one of Paul's words that he tweeted.

In his fight announcement, Paul also tweeted, “My toughest test yet. I respect the legend, but he must be exterminated.

In Paul's tweet I took one conclusion, Paul ambition to beat Silva in boxing fight next october, I'm sure everything will turn around if Paul's goal is to annihilate the UFC legend boxer.

I’m not sure how I feel about this fight. I’m glad Silva is getting paid, but he’s old. I imagine his friends and family probably wish he was done fighting before he does damage to himself that will hurt his final years. I’m sure this will probably be the biggest payday of his life though, so I’m glad he’s getting his bag and I hope this is his last fight. As for Jake… At some point he’ll fight a real fighter in his prime, but for now I’m glad he’s getting some old guys paid.

Silva is not a pushover, I have read in one article that boxing is his first love and he beat one of the top middleweight in Julio Cezar Chavez Jr. now if you have that name in one of the boxers that you have beaten, then you are not just an ordinary boxer, I have seen Silva fought in his MMA days and his fight against Chavez Jr, I hope Silva will not too confident and he will take the fight seriously so he can handle Jake Paul's first loss.

I was about to say Silva isn't a push over but you beat me.  Though the concern here is the age factor since Silva is already 47.  But as I watch the previous fight of Silva, he still has the move reason why he got a split decision win against Chavez Jr.  I don't know much about the caliber of Jake Paul, many say Jake Paul has the KO punch since he easily KO'ed majority of his opponent but I do not think he will effectively release his powerful punches because Silva is good at footwork and punching in an angle that his opponent will have a hard time countering. 

[Yogee]

I would love to see this go past five rounds but Silva's chin is already gone when it was exposed by Weidman years ago. He's good and versatile but he's definitely getting hit and I wouldn't be surprised if he goes out once Paul's gloves touches them "glass".

Yeah you’ve got some great points here. I wasn’t aware that Anderson Silva had started boxing. That’s of course a good thing if you’re rooting for him like I will be. The age is the biggest issue, I mean a 20 something versus an almost 50 year old is just crazy.

It will be interesting to see when he actually schedules a fight with a legitimate boxer and someone his own age. I guess we’ll see how this one goes first.

Yeah true that. I certainly didn’t say I was gunna shell out the 76 bucks or whatever it’s going to cost. I would I imagine that both guys are like to get at minimum a million +.

[bittraffic]

It will be fun to see Jake fall down to the ground and stop looking down at the UFC fighters but he actually has the chance to also KO Silva. Silva is not very mobile because of his leg injury, seems very delicate for him to do some side steps that might crack again. When you get old, your bones get brittle and brittle. Not much difference in their reach so Jake could also throw jabs from a distance. It's all just timing.

The majority of those he KO'ed are already aged and out of their prime. There's even a former basketball player on his record lol.

In fairness, Jake Paul knows the basics of boxing but if only his professional career started against those real boxers in their prime, his current reputation won't be that bad. As for Silva, his experience is the only foundation here in this fight. Regardless of his dominance during his prime, we can't hide the fact that at 47 years of age, his body might not cooperate anymore with his will. I don't want to support or even watch this fight too but as for other people, they want to witness the first loss of Jake Paul in his career so they might want to spend money here.

Is this fight sanctioned as a professional fight? I don't know how they were able to convince Silva to accept this fight aside from money.

[sunsilk]

This fight is just another match for the sake of clout but yeah, let's take it that Anderson is getting paid decently for agreeing to this match against Jake Paul. I do agree that soon, it's better for him to challenge the real boxers so there's nothing to reason anymore.

Well, this is their niche and expect that there will be more of these fights because they earn a lot from this.

You can easily google this info. The fights wouldn't be made if there wasn't money in it and when they do well there's an insane amount to be made.

https://talksport.com/sport/boxing/1188184/ksi-jake-paul-clash-pay-per-view-sales-reported-230000-buys-most-recent-event/

The report says KSI’s fight night did 230,000 buys on DAZN in the UK, the Republic of Ireland and the USA.

This is fewer than Paul’s fights against Ben Askren and his first contest with Tyron Woodley, which did over 500,000 buys each. Although, KSI’s fight night has surpassed Paul’s most recent outing against the former UFC welterweight champion, which did 200,000 buys.

Quote tweeting the article, Paul said: “Bull**** aside, the PPV business ain’t easy.

“Congrats to KSI and his boxing company. Those are great numbers. The day we finally settle this, it will break the internet and do some big PPV numbers on Showtime. "

People like Jake are hoping they can build up to that mega-money fight against someone like McGregor or Mayweather which will come with a life-changing amount. Once Connor is done with the UFC I'm sure he'll start taking these boxing exhibition matches but for now he's stuck with the UFC and daddy Dana isn't going to let him fight a youtuber, especially not one he has beef with.

[robelneo]

Jake Paul considers this one, his biggest fight he has huge respect for Anderson Silva, and beating Silva will make the boxing community fully respect his caliber this is his answer to one of his interviews from last year, after Silva, the boxing community will take him seriously and maybe one day challenge a title holder in the future but of course, he needs a challenge and he should be under the boxing organization, that will be his biggest leap.

[yazher]

We all know that this fight is only for mere entertainment and there is nothing to be expected here because it's already been planned whatever gonna happen here. What is really curious is how they gonna exactly execute their plan. will it gonna be an unexpected knockout or another draw cause there's no way Anderson Silva with his great boxing skill and powerful punches will gonna be lost to this guy? unless some miracles happened and we want to see what kind of miracle would that be.

Its why his fights are also not listed in crypto bookies. I wouldn't however going to completely believe Jake can fix all his previous fights seeing that he had knockout UFC fighters before Silva.

If this isn't truly fixed, this fight will be risky for Jake. Silva can absorb or throw counter before Jake is even done with his combo.

[coin-investor]

Both fighters have a lot to lose in this fight, Silva has carved his legacy in the MMS kingdom and now he is making a name in boxing and so far he is doing great, if Paul beats him as he did against Woodley he can bid his boxing career goodbye, Jake Paul has a good winning streak so far, and he wants to continue that streak and he wants to get better opponents for every fight and Silva is the right but a risky choice, there's the possibility that Silva can end Paul's winning streak and his popularity.

But Paul needs to sustain his reputation and he needs to fight fighters that can arise the boxing community's interest,Silva is a perfect choice, looking forward to their first conference and their first face-off.
