Paul vs. Silva Odds, Card, Prediction
Jake “The Problem Child” Paul and Anderson “The Spider” Silver are at opposite places in their career, but it seems they’re fighting each other at just the right time. Oddsmakers currently have Paul as a slight favorite with moneyline odds of -250 compared to Silva’s +205. In other words, this fight is expected to be as close as they come.
Silva is no doubt feeling confident coming into tonight’s fight, having beaten former world titlist Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. as the underdog. The Brazilian fighter has three other professional boxing matches under his belt, of which he won two and lost one (in 1998). Silva is also the first southpaw Paul has faced, which could pose difficulties for “The Problem Child.”
Paul is aware of Silva’s boxing talent, saying, “This is it. This is a make-or-break moment. I know I have someone who just beat a world champion of boxing right in front of me.” The YouTube star is also excited about the opportunity to be in the ring with Silva, who he’s idolized since a young age. “He was my idol growing up,” Paul told Fox News Digital, “and he was the first celebrity I ever met. Now, I get to share the ring with him.”
Still, Paul is convinced of a decisive win: “It won’t go more than five.”
And Paul’s prediction of a win could very well come to fruition, as Silva is past his prime at 47 years old and saw his fighting skills dwindle after 2013 with seven UFC losses in the same number of years before retiring.
“The energy involved in this fight is so amazing,” said Silva. “A lot of people think about, ‘Anderson you’re crazy, why do you do that?’ You know what, that’s a good challenge for me.”
Besides the blockbuster main event, the Paul vs. Silva card is bringing some other worthwhile bouts to whet our appetites beforehand. Here’s the full Paul vs. Silva fight card:
