Anderson Silva's son Gabriel Silva continued his return to the ring with a tight decision win over Tik Tok star OJ Rose on Friday evening.
The young Silva had already beat Rose in a misfits -box fight in November 2023, where the social media star insisted that he did enough to win. Both men seemed enthusiastic about a rematch, but Silva went to Anthony Taylor for his light-heavy title instead.
Since then, Silva has returned to the Banner of the Risk Promotions of Adin Ross, where he landed a mean knockout about 'USA Saiyan' Brendan Kelly earlier this year. And he continued his winning run by putting a stamp on his way with Rose two years after their first meeting.
Adin Ross calls for trilogy while Gabriel Silva Oj Rose beats
Years after their first meeting under the Misfits banner, Gabriel Silva and OJ Rose braked for brand riskotions at the show of Friday evening in Miami. The more experienced Silva looked malignant early on and showed his slender skills while he landed as desired.
Rose, however, found his way back in the third, despite what viewers may have heard of the inexperienced commentary team with streamers XQC and N3on, as well as boxing champion Rolly Romero.
With just 30 seconds to go in the fight, because it seemed as if Rose might have done enough to sneak a draw with his deceased attack, Silva jumped to life again. He landed a Flush Uppercut in the conflict that stumbled Rose and probably turned the round on his head.
After the fight, Ross was so impressed by what he had seen that he demanded the couple that it was on what he stood on it was a 'rematch'. In fact, it would be a trilogy and he plans to fight next month while the promotion is going on the road for the first time in Nashville.
Gabriel Silva has had an up and down influencer boxing career
Since he has chosen to follow the boxing route of the celebrity, Gabriel Silva has had an interesting series of results. When he came from an impressive kickboxing career, he made his Massfits box debut by brutaling commentator Ben Davis in September 2023.

However, next time he hit a stumbling block when he barely walked past Rose in York Hall and earned a shot on Taylor. He was booked to face the former MMA star in Nashville in March, but was forced due to negotiation problems about the weight.
Instead, they fought in Dublin for the next August, with Taylor brutally struck him within three rounds after an ugly structure. Earlier this year he came back on the right track in the brand risk ring against Brendan Kelly, which he put in the second.
