“I’m ALL for it,” Chael Sonnen roots for Jake Paul to fight Anderson Silva come October 2022

Chael Sonnen has got a name to think of as Jake Paul’s next opponent and the name is also one of Sonnen’s former opponents. Paul is a Youtuber-cum-boxer who is undefeated as a professional boxer. He has notable wins over the likes of former MMA champions Tyron Woodley and Ben Askren. Paul was scheduled to first fight Tommy Fury on August 6 and then Hasim Rahman Jr, but both of his opponents pulled out on different occasions due to different reasons.

Besides being a professional boxer, Paul is also invested in the sport as a boxing promoter. He is the co-founder of Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) alongside his manager Nakisa Bidarian. Paul is also the co-founder of a new sports betting project by the name of Betr. In MVP, Paul manages 7-division world champion in women’s boxing, Amanda Serrano and upcoming prospect in men’s boxing Ashton Sylve. Paul has recently announced that since his bouts got cancelled back to back for August, he is now going to fight in October of 2022.

Chael Sonnen explains that Anderson Silva should’ve fought either one of the Paul brothers a long time ago

In an interview with MMA Legend Chael Sonnen, Ariel Helwani asks Sonnen about the future career of various fighters such as Kamaru Usman, Leon Edwards, Colby Covington, Nate Diaz, Khamzat Chimaev, Tony Ferguson, Li Jingliang, Jon Jones and many more. Sonnen also talks about his back and forth with John Cena and Chris Curtis. In the end, Sonnen talks about if he will be all in for a fight between Paul and UFC middleweight great Anderson Silva.

“Yes I’m all for it,” says Sonnen “One thing about Anderson Silva all the way back when I was having my beef with him is, he really believes that you go in the gym, you keep your head down and you go out there and compete with whoever… I think Anderson v/s one of the Paul brothers, even if they go and get this fight, this fight should’ve been done, the money should’ve been in the bank 2 years ago…” continues Sonnen.

What do you make of Sonnen vouching for Silva to fight against any one of Logan & Jake Paul in boxing? Do you think that fight would sell? Who do you think wins in each fight Silva against each of both the brothers? Where do you put Silva against the greatest MMA fighters of all time? What do you make of the Jake Paul experiment in boxing, do you think Paul is proving to be great for the sport or neutral?
