Jake Paul proved Dana White wrong by beating the UFC legend
To the annoyance of Dana White, the early record of Jake Paul was built on victories over UFC legends.
Ben Askren was stopped for two minutes before Tyron Woodley was eliminated by one shot cold.
A new potential opponent for Paul appeared when Anderson Silva crossed to boxing and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. And beat Tito Ortiz.
“I guarantee this,” said White in September 2021. “You're not going to see Jake Paul calling Anderson Silva, that I am promising.”
13 months later, Paul Silva dropped on his way to a unanimous decision victory in his heaviest test so far.
After the fight, 'The Problem Child' was quickly white about the comments he had made before.
“Dana, Dana, Dana,” said Paul during a press conference. “Bro, you said I wouldn't do this and I did it with flag and pennant.
“But he hides and tries to do everything he can to stop my run and sabotage my fighting.
“He hates me, he hates what I do, he hates that I expose his business.”
What is the next step for Jake Paul?
Jake Paul has gone 5-1 in professional boxing since the beating of Anderson Silva three years ago.
Tommy Fury gave the 28-year-old his first taste of defeat, but he was sent back impressively.
Nate Diaz and Mike Perry have tried to beat Paul and become a member of the list of UFC hunters he has defeated.
In November 2024, box icon Mike Tyson went the distance and lost his 20-year retirement to face the division of YouTuber.
Former WBC Middleweight Champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is the following for Paul, who will fight against the son of one of the greatest legends of Boxing on 28 June, Julio Cesar Chavez, in the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, on 28 June.
Former UFC champion Holly Holm returns to the square circle on a stacked map, which will clash with UFC 317 and almost certainly comes to Paul's public feud with White again.
