Jake Paul once again advances his boxing record, this time with a win over the legendary mixed martial artist Anderson “The Spider” Silva.

Leading up to the fight, many thought that regardless of Silva’s age at 47-year-old, he would dance around Paul due to his past experience and dominance in the cage, and based on his performance against Julio Caesar Chavez Jr. back in 2021. Early on in the fight, it looked as if there was a chance Paul bit off more than he could chew as Silva was all technique, gradually wearing Paul down with his movement.

Things began to shift as Paul landed heavier shots, including one that left Silva’s nose bloodied. Paul’s victory was cemented when he dropped the Brazilian in the eighth round with a counter right. Paul was eventually awarded the eight-round unanimous decision with a 77-74 from one judge and and two other 78-73 score cards.

Paul’s record is now 6-0, 4 by way of knockout, and he has already began to call out other legends like Nate Diaz and Canelo for his next opponents. Check out the knockdown below.
