Tito Ortiz and Anderson Silva joined in for the press conference ahead of their boxing bout last year. Ortiz made a blunder while calling out ‘Paul Brothers’, instead called them ‘Logan Brothers’. He later clarified and said he wants someone of his size for competition. Dustin Poirier Leaks Nate Diaz Fight Date?
During the press conference with Silva, he said:
“If I look at either brother of the Logan brothers, excuse me, of the Paul brothers, I would say Logan is the one. Jake is a little smaller, and I’d like someone more my size.”
Anderson Silva talks about why a fight with Logan Paul did not happen
The former UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva revealed why a fight against YouTube star Logan Paul didn’t come to fruition. Silva is widely regarded as one of the greatest mixed martial artists of all time and has switched to boxing following a successful stint of 14 years in UFC.
Before making his name in the UFC, “The Spider” had competed in two professional boxing bouts. A win against Julio Cesar de Jesus and a defeat to Osmar Luiz Teixeira left him 1-1 in the sport back in 2005. But in his return, Silva moved to a positive record with a remarkable performance against former WBC Middleweight Champion Julio César Chávez Jr.
During the recent press conference, Silva said that the situation was out of his control, but doesn’t believe the fight can be ruled out yet:
“Let’s see, everything is possible, I’m waiting for the next challenge… I couldn’t control that situation… I just have control over one thing and that’s training hard and continuing to listen to my coach and learning more and more techniques and training with my partners.
“The other side is something I can’t control, but this has happened and I am so happy that I am prepared for this fight, so if [the Paul fight] doesn’t happen that’s good too.” (h/t Mirror Online)
In his second boxing bout of the year, Silva will face former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Tito Ortiz on the undercard of Vitor Belfort vs. Oscar De La Hoya on September 11.
