Anderson Silva\u2019s coach accuses Logan Paul of \u201chiding\u201d under exhibition rules Instagram\/spiderandersonsilva\/loganpaulUFC legend Anderson Silva has taken up a career in boxing and a potential fight against YouTuber Logan Paul is in the cards, but according to Silva\u2019s coach, the bout will only happen if it\u2019s under official rules. Logan Paul shocked the world when he took boxing icon Floyd Mayweather to the limit, refusing to go down against the undefeated 50-0 star. While his success was seen as a victory in many circles, Anderson Silva\u2019s coach wasn\u2019t as impressed, especially because of the fact it was fought under exhibition rules \u2013 something he wants to change if The Spider and Logan meet in the ring. In an interview with Sherdog, Silva\u2019s coach Luiz Dorea weighed in on future boxing matches for Silva, who recently won against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. via split-decision. Primarily, he discussed the possibility of a fight against Logan Paul, which was teased by the YouTuber\u2019s manager as a potential September bout. \u201cLogan proved to be a very brave and talented kid doing an exhibition fight against the legend Floyd Mayweather,\u201d Dorea admitted. \u201cBut, of course, if it were in official rules, the result would be different. Let\u2019s see if he will keep hiding under exhibition rules or if he will test himself in the real world [under professional rules].\u201d Notably, Logan\u2019s exhibition fight against Mayweather had no judges and no official winner was declared. As such, even if Mayweather had a better performance, he wouldn\u2019t \u201cwin\u201d due to the rules. However, according to Silva\u2019s coach, if Logan and the former UFC star fought under professional rules, he guarantees a knockout. \u201cI have no doubt Anderson will knock him out,\u201d Dorea insisted. With a potential fight looming, it will be fun to see if Dorea\u2019s prophecy can come true or if Logan can defy the odds just as he did against Floyd Mayweather.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
