Jake Paul has vowed to land another highlight real knockout on Anderson Silva, telling fans that it will be boxing's "knockout of the year".
The YouTuber-turned-boxer landed what many fans felt was the best stoppage of last year when after a lack-lustre rematch with Tyron Woodley in December, he landed a massive shot in the sixth round that put the ex-UFC champion down. ESPN Ringside awarded it the best KO of the year, while many included it in their shortlist.
But he will have pulled off an incredible feat if he can do the same to Silva, who has a number of physical advantages over Paul as well as a history as one of MMA's greatest ever strikers. Even within the twilight of his career after leaving the UFC, Silva has managed to land major wins in the boxing ring over the likes of former world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr among others.
