This bullshit artists entire boxing career is a smoke screen. He's fought 5 times, won them all with his first 4 opponents being in their debut bouts and the last in Tyronne Woodley being 0-1-0 as a boxer.

I wouldn't walk across the street to watch this circus act if admission was free.

If this bout with Silva comes to fruition, I'd give the nod to Silva, even though he's 47 yrs. old. He's at least a "real" fighter and not some off the street tomato can.

Can Silva box at all?

He's had 4 pro bouts and won 3 of them with 2 being by KO. His one loss was by KO and was his first bout when he retired in his corner.

His biggest name win on his short record is against Julio Caesar Chavez Jr.by split decision in an 8 round fight in 2019.

Well I'm not going to launch a vigorous defence of Jake Paul here but just to say that he signed to fight Tommy Fury twice and then Hasim Rahman Jr and it was they, not him, who were responsible for the fight not happening. I will admit I am starting to warm to him as unlike his brother he seems to be intent on pursuing a career in boxing

Well, my take on Rahman and Fury not going through with the fight just shows how much of a circus they probably thought it would wind up being and take away from their credibility as legit boxers looking to enhance their careers.

They need to stop allowing Jake to do this circus.

I agree as it cheapens the dignity of boxing. And to allow this crap to be a PPV event is insane. Obviously the guy has some talent, but fighting nobodies and retired fighters past their prime is not a way to build a strong resume.
