Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva: UK start time TONIGHT, live stream, PPV price, undercard for HUGE boxing clash

Published on October 29, 2022 at 08:23 PM

YOUTUBE superstar Jake Paul is returning to the ring for a mouth-watering clash against MMA legend Anderson Silva TONIGHT.

The Problem Child weighed in at the LOWEST weight of his career so far for the catchweight bout against Silva in Arizona.

Paul was due to fight rival Tommy Fury in August but plans fell through after an issue with the Brit’s US visa.

A bout with Hasim Rahman Jr was also set up, but that also fell through due to a problem making weight on the heavyweight fighter’s side.

Now 47-year-old Silva will step up to plate, in what is a massive step-up for Paul, who knocked out Tyron Woodley last December.

Silva has been in the boxing ring before, beating former world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr last year, before knocking out UFC veteran Tito Ortiz a few months later.

And now the Brazilian will get one of the biggest paydays of his career to face Paul, who has yet to lose in the squared circle.

When is Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva?

  • Paul’s big clash with Silva will take place on TONIGHT, Saturday, October 29.
  • The bout will be held at the Gila River Arena in Glendale, Arizona, US.
  • Ring-walks will commence from around 4am UK time on Sunday, October 30 in the UK.

How can I live stream Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva?

  • Paul vs Silva will be available to watch in the UK on Fite TV PPV.
  • The event will cost £17.99 to purchase.
  • You can live stream the action from the Fite TV app, which is available for download onto your mobile or tablet device.
  • In the US, Paul vs Silva will be available to watch on Showtime PPV.

What happened at the weigh in?

On the day before the toughest test of his boxing career, Paul hit the scales at 186.5lb, under the agreed upon catchweight with Silva.

He said: “Let’s go. Biggest fight of year, Paul-Silva, Showtime get it right now.”;

The American’s five prior wins all came around the 190lb mark, and he wanted to return at 185lb.

But UFC legend Silva negotiated a compromise of 187lb, with the Brazilian also coming in under the limit at 186.1lb.

Silva said: “Listen, everything is possible. Jake and [his] brother are training hard [to become] boxers. [They] try to [show] respect for the community. The kids have good potential and the people need to respect that.”

“I don’t feel pressure any more because everything I do in this sport and MMA I do with my heart.

“I think now is the next step for me. I try to enjoy my life, and when people think that’s too much pressure because I need to prove that I represent the MMA Community – no, I represent myself and represent my fans.”
