Youtuber and boxer Jake Paul won this Saturday by unanimous decision (550-40; 77-73; 78-73) over veteran Anderson Silva, thus maintaining his six-fight undefeated record.
The victory increased his confidence and ambition in the ring, and while he was celebrating the win, he sent a message to the Mexican boxer Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez, and Nate Díaz.
“Many people will continue to say that I can’t go against the best, but it’s part of life. I love Nate Dóaz, he went to say many things. He stops running and stops being a bitch, you can’t, stop talking. I can beat Canelo, anyone, anyone, anywhere“, Álvarez said.
Furthermore, Jake Paul thanked Anderson Silva for motivating him to achieve all his dreams in the world of boxing.
“It is a moment that I cannot believe, first thanks to Anderson because he has inspired me and I would not have fought this year. All those people who are watching, see is a man of more than 40 years and dreams can come true. I have worked a lot, at the age of 13 I visualized this and I am fulfilling it”, he said.
The fight between Paul and Silva was quite balanced, until the eighth and final round, when the actions leaned in favor of Jake, after he sent the Brazilian to the canvas after a powerful blow.
