I probably won't bet this fight because I have no idea who will win.

Yes, so the best thing to do is not to bet on this fight.

Anderson Silva is clearly the better and more established fighter, but he's old... Jake has age and likely supplements on his side, so for me this is a risky fight for Anderson Silva while also being one hell of a payday. I can see why he didn't want to turn this fight down. Win or lose I suspect it'll be the last time he enters the ring.

But if you look at it, Silva has a good fighting stance and I would say a good boxer and he has the experience to beat Jake Paul but the age difference though.

Personally, I'd like to see Jake get knocked out and I'd hate to see Anderson Silva get knocked out, so I probably have too much emotion on the line to add money to it. I'll watch the fight though and hope for the best. Old man power better be on display.

Who wouldn't like to see him at least touching the canvass for the first time if I'm not mistaken. But it will be a big task for Anderson, but he will have to test the chin of Jake Paul and see how strong it is.

That is a sight that I also love to see but we know that it's not that simple and as you guys are discussing above, it's much better to enjoy and watch the fight rather than betting on it because I doubt that there's a winner here. Silva is much adored and respected by Jake Paul so that is a sign and Jake Paul won't agree to lose because he is also building his career. That said, we might see a draw here, although that is just an speculation but I think that will happen.

I also think the same, for me this fight will not be as exciting as the one between Canelo and GGG, I think the fight will have a tint similar to loa de exchiición, despite the fact that it is a real fight and that it has many things to bet and to win and losing, for me both boxers have a unique respect for each other, and I think neither has much intention of seeing the other below the other, for me both are very good, and I also think that the best thing for this fight is to have a good rate of popcorn and enjoy the technique that both can show, it is very likely that there will be a tie, if I had to bet on an epate I would go for it.

That is a good point! But we know that experience will somehow help Silva in this fight, Jake Paul might be a decent boxer with good knockout punch but that will be a challenge in his side to do because Silva at his age is still quite agile to evade any serious punch. Anyway, just as you said, this is a rare interesting fight that we should see soon. My side belongs to the MMA HOF, we'll see who will be victorious at the end of the day.

If there's one fighter who can challenge Jake Paul it's going to be Silva, Silva only has one fight in boxing but that one fight is enough to show boxing experts and critics that he has what it takes, I have a feeling that this fight will be very much different from all the fight Jake Paul has, I don't want to see Silva getting knock out just like what happened to Woodley as this will tarnish his image and his legacy, I also noticed that both fighters have big respect to each other, let's see in the ring if they will still respect each other.

No mate, Anderson Silva already had 4 professional fights in boxing and this is his 5th fight. Two of those fights happened last year in just a span of four mere months, imagine Silva's age, yet he managed to attain that feat and finished it all successfully even if he is an MMA fighter. That's why I'm confident to say that this will be Jake's first defeat, I just hope that this isn't staged tho.

And as a bettor, that is our concern that this might be rigged and stage so it's hard to bet on this kind of match. But I do agree that Silva has good win in boxing recently, specially against a full blown pro in JCC Jr.

I also hear that some fans wanted to see Jake Paul being knock out here, specially by the legend in Silva hehehe. Perhaps it was the hatred against Jake Paul or it just the fans of Silva pushing it obviously. But let's see, I wouldn't be surprised if Anderson Silva wins this fight.

Well, sometimes our relevance in one or more boxers can be affected by emotions, some bet much more on Silva, maybe he is the boxer who has much more hierarchy, although as I said before, I did not know who to bet on, I see The two boxers are very even, it's difficult, and although anyone can give a surprise, but I think that for a knockout I see very low possibilities, to be honest too low, I don't think something like that happens no matter how much you want one of the other, if they start with intentions like that, it is only that there can be a type of sighting to discover the other's plan, for me this fight will be very close.
