Well, it actually happened. Jake Paul beat Anderson Silva via unanimous decision after dropping him in the final round of their 8-round fight…

I’ll be honest – I didn’t watch the fight because I wasn’t that interested in it, but it’s pretty mental that Jake Paul actually bested Anderson Silva in a competitive fight, even if the UFC legend is 47 years old. I honestly didn’t think he would pull it off. Although Anderson Silva did claim he was knocked out a few times while sparring in preparation for this fight, but let’s not take anything away from Jake’s win after the fact.

Following the fight, Jake Paul called KSI a loser and challenged Nate Diaz for his next fight, which would be perfect. I think I would actually watch that one. In fact Nate Diaz was in attendance, and ended up slapping one of Jake Paul’s entourage backstage:

Just a standard night out for Nate Diaz. Fair play to Jake Paul for continuing to prove everyone wrong, although technically, we can still say he hasn’t beaten any pure professional boxers. I do think it’s unfair to just consider him a YouTuber now given all these wins he’s been picking up though. Let’s hope they make the Diaz fight next – would undoubtedly be The Problem Child’s biggest test yet.

P.S. Yoel Romero also threw down the gauntlet to Jake Paul recently. Somehow I doubt Jake Paul’s taking him up on it.
