VIDEO: Watch highlights of Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva pre-fight press conference in Phoenix

The press tour for Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva continued on Tuesday in Phoenix.

The YouTube star and former UFC champion hit the stage for the second-straight day to answer questions ahead of their upcoming boxing match on Oct. 29. Paul and Silva are scheduled to fight in an eight-round fight at a catchweight of 187-pounds.

You can watch the press conference with both Paul and Silva in the video above.

Paul, 25, has made a habit of fighting former MMA champions, but Silva will be the biggest name yet. He has a knockout of Ben Askren and two wins – one decision and one knockout – over Tyron Woodley on his resume. The YouTube star hasn’t fought since his sixth-round knockout of Woodley in December 2021.

Silva won two boxing matches in 2021, first taking a split decision from Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. after eight rounds before knocking out fellow former UFC champion Tito Ortiz in just 1:22. Silva also looked formidable in an exhibition bout against Bruno Machado in May.
