Almost all the audience witnessed the match between the former UFC champion and the former WBC champion to have a great impression, including the famous YouTuber Jake Paul.
Silva, at the age of 46, won only one MMA match since 2012. Besides, this is just his third professional boxing match. Even so, the former champion looks comfortable, mobilized, accurate and ready to release punches in the near way. He had a spectacular victory, especially when critics considered him as a big one compared to Chavez Jr.
Earlier this week, Paul talked to TMZ to discuss Silva's performance and express his respect.
Paul said: “Anderson is 46 years old and I think he has an amazing match.
This proves that MMA boxers are also the ones who have the ability to fight, and I think a lot of people forget that. It was the first skill that MMA boxers learned if they plan to compile, Boxing. So I thought he looked great. ”
Overall, it can be seen that Jake Paul's words are partly to praise Anderson Silva, but the rest is also to assert that the opponents he has or about to fight (Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley) are also good people fighting. The cause of this action is because Jake Paul has been criticized by many big names (including Dana White) that he did not dare to fight the true boxers.
