White reacted to the announcement of the duel Silva - Paul

UFC President Dana White spoke about the upcoming boxing match between the legendary ex-middleweight champion of the Brazilian promotion Anderson Silv and American blogger Jake Paul, which will be held on October 29 in Phoenix.

“I don’t care about Paul, but if he really fights Anderson, then now is the time. He will get a real fight, no matter how old Anderson is. Yes, this is a real fight,” White said.

Recall that after the end of his career in MMA, 47-year-old Silva has already managed to fight two fights in professional boxing. The Brazilian defeated Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. by split decision and knocked out Tito Ortiz.

As for 25-year-old Paul, he knocked out former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley in his last boxing fight.
