Jake Paul has been told that he should avoid fighting Michael Bisping, and instead take on Anderson Silva in his next bout.

Former UFC double champion Daniel Cormier believes that Paul shouldn't face Bisping, who has just one eye and a series of knee issues. He thinks that a more legitimate challenge would be a different ex-UFC middleweight champion in Silva.

The Brazilian is one of the most renowned strikers in MMA history, and has a 3-1 professional boxing record with two of those wins coming last year. He most recently knocked out Tito Oritz within a round, having previously beaten ex-world champion boxer Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in his first bout in the squared circle since 2005.

And Cormier believes he will pose a legitimate problem for Paul, who is 5-0 as a professional but has yet to face anybody with a boxing record further than a couple of white collar bouts. “You want an older guy to fight?” Cormier joked during a recent video on his YouTube chanel.

“There’s a former UFC champion that is doing exactly what you’re doing. His name’s Anderson Silva. That’s who you should be fighting, Jake. That’s who you should be calling out!”

Cormier is not a fan of Paul's having gotten into an altercation with the YouTube star during UFC 261. And
