Jake Paul warned he will \u201cpay dearly\u201d if he fights Anderson Silva Instagram: Jake Paul\/Anderson SilvaAnderson Silva\u2019s boxing coach Luis Carlos Dorea says Jake Paul will \u201cpay dearly\u201d if he goes through with his plan to fight the former UFC superstar inside the boxing ring. After a brief hiatus from in-ring action, where he\u2019s focused on building up his stable of fighters under the Most Valuable Promotions brand, Jake Paul will be returning to boxing on August 13. As of now, the YouTuber-turned-boxer doesn\u2019t have an opponent for his return fight, but plenty of names have been mentioned, including former UFC king Anderson \u2018The Spider\u2019 Silva. The Brazillian superstar has made the transition from MMA to boxing with relative ease, picking up a 3-1 record. He even has a win over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr under his belt. Silva has seemingly become the frontrunner to fight Jake in the summer, seeing as he\u2019s in-ring shape and active. Though, the YouTuber has been warned about making the fight a reality. Silva\u2019s boxing coach, Luis Carlos Dorea, spoke to MMAFighting about the possibility of having \u2018The Spider\u2019 take on \u2018The Problem Child\u2019 at some point, and he was pretty surprised that it\u2019s a serious consideration. \u201cYou have to laugh, right? Have to laugh. Jake Paul is doing his part, which is to promote,\u201d Dorea told MMAFighting about Jake\u2019s idea of fighting both Anderson and Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather. \u201cHe has to think of an exhibition,\u201d Silva\u2019s coach added. \u201cIf he\u2019s considering a fight, I think he will pay dearly. In promoting, it\u2019s all valid. He\u2019s doing his part, using his tongue, but you can\u2019t use your tongue inside the ring. You have to use your fists, and it\u2019s a whole other story. Anderson is far better.\u201d The former UFC middleweight champion has said that a fight between himself and Jake is \u201cpossible,\u201d with the YouTuber also changing on his previous stance of not wanting to fight Anderson. At this point, it remains to be seen as to who Jake will fight on August 13, but a bout with Silva would be incredibly interesting and match what he wants from an opponent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
