Jake Paul has announced his next opponent is Anderson Silva. I think Jake might have but off a little more than he can chew this time. Sure, Silva is damn near 50 years old, but he’s got power that Jake hasn’t seen before. I like this fight. I’d rather have seen him fight Andrew Tate, but this was unexpected and a nice surprise.

Is this an exhibition fight? Or Anderson Silva is making his pro-debut in boxing at an age of 47? Grin
I already knew this fight would come after Jake's fight has been cancelled against Rahman Jr., it was already rumored that Jake would fight Silva but ignored it as it will be an another money fight for Jake Paul. Sure, Silva is a professional and deadly athlete but that's on octagon and not in the ring.

Probably a pro-debut  Grin.  I am looking for a reply from people who don't want an exhibition fight like this but it looks like I can't find one  Cheesy.  It looks like they already accepted the fact that boxing is not only a sport but more a business thing.  I like watching Silva in his MMA moments, but I wonder if he can fare enough with boxing.  So I am thinking of exhausted Silva after round 4.

Also, Silva is already old enough and I'd say this he is just after the guaranteed money he can get after the fight.

Definitely! But still, it is interesting to watch a fight like this, especially when a person involved had made a dominating fighter impression on our minds.

Maybe but I can help but think that he is old enough to make a debut in this industry especially in cruiserweight where the boxers are mostly tall and heavy hitters, he may be sleeping well in the canvass if he faces a true warrior in that division. Lol Cheesy

Anyway, you're right that it's still interesting to see this fight because Anderson Silva is also a warrior himself and he has some relative experience in boxing too but we cannot really expect something big from him because he is not that young anymore.
