Jake Paul VS Anderson Silva October 29th

[serjent05]

I watched the fight between Jake Paul and Tyrone Woodley[1].  Jake Paul isn't that impressive.  You can see the traces of being a beginner on his move.  He is way too open when he throws punches which can be easily exploited by a good boxer.  He is also already gasping for air at the third round.  So all in all, watching both the performance of Silva against Chavez Jr. and Jake Paul against Tyrone Woodly, I can say Silva as a boxer is way more polished.  Besides if the concern is the defense of Silva since he somehow leaves himself open, I think the same concern should be thrown to Jake Paul.  If the age factor doesn't become a variable factor here(and KO punch), I believe Silva has a better chance of winning the fight.

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.

Silva might be close to his retirement as his age could be a big factor if ever he loses in this fight. While Paul is still very active and confident, but I just hope he will fight like a pro boxer that shows high experience and not like a pretender as he was viewed by many people who have seen his previous fights. This is likely to be the scenario when the two fighters are not really boxers in profession as they’re obviously famous in different fields before they enter the world of boxing.

These days marketing tactics are well followed unlike the players. Jake Paul is young and this gives him higher odds. For Anderson Silva age factor is a big setback, but the experience always have got the best answer. When everything is for money, any kind of result can come at the end of the fight.

I don't get why everyone is bashing on a young fighter who has a couple of fights, going against other beginner boxers. It's like they expect Jake Paul to go against Cancelo or someone, but then they'd be saying Cancelo took a easy fight. I don't think there's any winning in this, people just won't be happy regardless.

I say good on Jake. He's made a career in multiple industries, and quite frankly has the boxing purists actually wanting to watch his fights now, whether that's to route against him or not. Mayweather built a career on people wanting to see him get knocked out.

Jake Paul has been a pro for 2.5 years already. He is not just a beginner anymore. It is time to step up his level of competition beyond no-hoper washed up athletes if he wants to be treated as anything besides a freak show attraction. It's not a great sign for the state of boxing when this kind of garbage is getting so much hype and media attention.

Jake is just hated so much because of his bravado. that's why most wanted him fall. but this guy is smart. he probably is watching Silva work out and find out what Silva can do at his age before making some deals for both of them to fight. if he is picking a fight, it shouldn't be anything to be surprised as well. but Silva could actually have the edge against Jake.

[Mauser]

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.

I am definitely hyped about this match. Anderson Silva is a legend. He was the first real MMA fighter I followed and watched most of his matches live on TV. Never will I forget the evening where Anderson Silva was fighting Vitor Belfort. Staying up the whole night because the match was really early in the morning, we were watching the MMA fights before the main event and got drunk while being so excited for the Silva match. When the knock out happened so fast we got completely crazy, there was no sleep possible that night. The fight now vs Jake Paul is nice because we can see Anderson again in action. I am a little bit concerned about the age difference as Anderson was already too old for his last few professional fights. And then there is the part where they only fight in a box match. I understand that Jake Paul is a boxer and wants to meet his opponents on his turf, but why not make a rematch in their profession? It would be way more interesting if the first match was in the box ring and the second match in the octagon.

Jake Paul should find himself a younger rival, otherwise the fights with retirees are getting a little boring. When you are 25 years old, and the opponent is almost wice as old as you, then it ceases to be interesting. I understand that for him it's just show and views, he makes money on it, but it's time to find more serious rivals for himself in order to earn more respect.

Jake Paul is cherry picker because he needs to protect his boxing record, funny to say but it's true. Enticing old retired basketball players, washed out MMA fighters (probably they were paid), might in the future fight some retired old actors from Hollywood. Fighting a younger guy or a real boxer will never happen, obviously the result is obvious. He's just tanking his stats because it has a value to offer and that will make them more money.

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.

Man, I seriously agree with your statement.

These kinds of "exhibition fights" are just simply tiring to watch. Compared to the level of competition that these players used to do, I am pretty sure that they agreed to this fight mostly because of money. Maybe, the audience demands for these types of fight to happen (though I would not blame these fighters) but it somehow gives me the impression that it slightly degrades the value of boxing/fighting in these types of fights.

Nevertheless, I just hope that they give the crowd an interesting fight- not just simply a fight purely because of money.

We just never know, he keeps on winning, and he may target professional boxers to fight him if he keeps his string of winnings because will want more and the boxing community will continue to be irritated and challenge the way he knocks out his opponent if he beats Silva who is the closest he can fight as a pure boxer because Silva beats CHavez Jr and that was not an exhibition match then he'll go for a real boxer because he tasted victory, but that is if he beats Silva, and I doubt if Silva will easily give in.

Well, he really has to pick his opponent because, in every fight, he's always the main character. It's his show so he's the one to choose his challenger.

Unlikely to happen but he might give it a try if the hype is for real and too big to decline for him. That's where he's getting his radar if there are fans that would like to him fight depending on the hype it gets upon being challenged or advertised.

[virasisog]

I think there will come a time where he would really face someone that will test his real capability. He might always be picking his opponent but I'm sure that there will still be someone who will show off his real stamina in the ring. The spotlight shouldn't be focused on him all the time.

Well he will obviously cherry pick his opponent because his record is what makes his shit show matches interesting to the public. He is choosing not on prime fighter to match against him that already invested too much time on training. He is strong even though he is not a professional fighter compared to those pro player that he is picking that obviously not in the proper shape to the boxing fight.

I will be amazed by him if he will just go to professional and experience the real fight because there’s still money in it if he is really not afraid on real clash.

I'd love to see him fight SALT PAPI(in case you're not familiar with him). I saw the dude fight as an undercard on the recent KSI fight. among all the people who fought in that event he was one of the people who has the best stance and technique despite the fight only lasting for 20 sec(more or less)

It's not a great sign for the state of boxing when this kind of garbage is getting so much hype and media attention.

Two boxers backed out of the fight at the last moment against Jake Paul and he lost millions when Tommy Fury pulled out of the fight the second time and then Hasim Rahman Jr failed to fight citing weight issues and hence he wants to make up for that lost money and hence looking to fight another MMA veteran because he can bank on those fighters as they will show up to fight.

I appreciate the way Jake Paul is able to attract people to watch his fights and it is a great sign and he showed he can be the promoter rather than relying on others.

Man! I really thought that this is just an another exhibition fight of one of the Paul Bros. and thought that Jake just wanted to get himself on track and get heated because his fight against Rahman Jr. was cancelled. Surely, I am surprised that this is a professional boxing fight, so I guess this means that this is a debut for Anderson Silva as well.

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.

And that won't be changed as he will still be viewed as a kind of boxer who just wanted to fight washed out fighters because in his 6 bouts, including this one, he still haven't faced a true professional boxer and adding Silva on his list will still be viewed as an exhibition fight in the eyes of the boxing fans.

It was a cool moment in the press conference for this fight when Anderson Silva, Jake Paul, & Logan Paul recreated a picture they took 13 years ago when the Paul brothers were just kids happy to meet Silva. Google it if you haven’t seen the side by side images. It’s pretty cool that they did that. Anderson Silva seems like a really great guy. I hope the fight goes well for him.

Found it. I am glad Anderson Silva can still remember it as he said in the press conference. If I am that, it's not easy to have a memory of those things especially when you banged in the head many times.
"Now I am fighting you." said Jake Paul.
There's no heat happening, everything is full of respect and Silva is also known for that so I guess it will just be up to who will win the fight.
But isn't it a bit difficult to fight someone you have nothing against but just respect?

In the name of entertainment they will still fight. I cant remember one Silva's fight that is boring enough so they didnt need to hype with trashings. Jake vs Anderson wouldn't be boring too unless they will prove the fight to just an exhibition once the result is a draw. He might as well be fighting youtubers like him.

As far as I know, Anderson Silva is a great fighter and if this fight is serious Jake Paul doesn't deserve to tarnish Anderson Silva's gloves, he doesn't deserve to risk Anderson Silva's boxing, he's amateur and mediocre with no business and the only reason people know who is he because of money and youtube. And as a professional fighter, he is a joke.
Anderson Silva is the greatest fighter of all time, this is not a match in any combat sport and it would be a shame for Anderson Silva to put up a fight.

[Balmain]

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.

Of course, everything is a pre-arranged match, even the winner is already known. For us, the more the show is effective on both sides, the more the pleasure of watching will increase. It's nice to see only Anderson Silva around here, he's a 47-year-old mixed-fighting pro at the UFC, I don't need to tell his story. If it's going to be a real fight, Jake Paul's job is a little hard for me to say. Also, Anderson Silva is an active person, Jake Paul is making strong shots, I know that, but his opponent is the old wolf, Anyway, it's sure to be fun to watch.
