Jake Paul: YouTube star 'doesn't deserve' to beat Anderson Silva in boxing match

YouTube star Jake Paul “doesn’t deserve” to beat UFC legend Anderson Silva in a boxing match.

That’s the opinion of former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping, who knows all about what it’s like to face ‘The Spider’.

Paul, 25, will look to make it six wins from six next month when he takes on Silva, 47, in an eight-round affair on October 29.

The Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona will play host.

But Bisping, who was previously offered the chance to fight Paul in 2020, doesn’t think he deserves to have Silva’s name on his list of beaten opponents.

“Well I just hope and pray for the love of God that Anderson Silva doesn’t get flatlined,” Bisping said in a recent video on his YouTube channel.

“Granted I dropped him in the first and I dropped him in the second, but I certainly did not knock him out, and at the end of that fight my face was an absolute mess.

“The point I’m making is that Anderson Silva can take a shot, he’s still got it, he can land a shot, he’s very creative, he’s very sneaky, and obviously he just knocked out Tito Ortiz and went the distance with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
