Jake Paul has vowed to "shut up" UFC president Dana White by beating MMA legend Anderson Silva in their boxing fight.
YouTube star Paul will make his sixth professional ring appearance when he takes on former UFC champion Silva in Phoenix on Saturday night. This is arguably the toughest examination of Paul's career given the Brazilian's prior experience in the sport which includes a win over former world title holder Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
Paul has shared a long-term rivalry with UFC kingpin White who has been a frequent critic of his boxing career, and previously proposed he should face a "real" fight against Silva before Paul signed the agreement. And the American star believes he is the underdog going into the fight and is expecting a tough night.
