Now Jake Paul is preparing for his outing against former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley on August 28 on Showtime pay-per-view.
During a recent interview with TMZ, he said he respects Silva and wanted him to compete on the same card. It is also noted that he is not ruling out a potential bout against him in the future and neither is Silva.
“Anything is possible. I didn’t initially think of that, but my saying is ‘Anyone, any time, any place.’ But I think it’ll be more interesting to see Anderson Silva fight Roy Jones Jr. on my undercard, which is what I originally tweeted out there because he beat one legendary boxer, let’s see if he can beat another legendary boxer. Maybe there’s a fight for us down the road. I think there’s talks about him maybe fighting against my brother (Logan Paul). But Anderson’s a nice guy, and I respect him as a legend.”
We will have to see when the match between Anderson Silva and Logan Paul takes place.
