Jake Paul and Anderson Silva successfully weigh in for boxing fight

Jake Paul weighed in slightly heavier than his rival Anderson Silva for their grudge fight, scaling 186.5lb compared to his rival's 186.1lb.

Paul, 25, will face the toughest test of his career to date when he takes on the 47-year-old UFC legend in Phoenix tomorrow night. He will attempt to maintain his unbeaten record in the ring by extending his winning streak to six.

And both he and Silva appeared to have had no trouble with the 187lb limit as Paul scaled his lowest weight yet as a professional fighter. The official weigh-in was held behind closed doors with the rivals appearing in front of fans at this evening's ceremonial set-up.
