Jake Paul urged to fight Anderson Silva next instead of Michael Bisping

Jake Paul has been told that he should avoid fighting Michael Bisping, and instead take on Anderson Silva in his next bout.

Former UFC double champion Daniel Cormier believes that Paul shouldn't face Bisping, who has just one eye and a series of knee issues. He thinks that a more legitimate challenge would be a different ex-UFC middleweight champion in Silva.

The Brazilian is one of the most renowned strikers in MMA history, and has a 3-1 professional boxing record with two of those wins coming last year. He most recently knocked out Tito Oritz within a round, having previously beaten ex-world champion boxer Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in his first bout in the squared circle since 2005.
