Online sensation Paul and legendary UFC fighter Silva square off on Saturday night in Arizona inside a boxing ring. Let’s look at Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva betting, Odds Analysis & Complete Guide
Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva
The year’s most eagerly awaited occasion has finally arrived. On Saturday night in Glendale, Arizona, social media star Jake Paul will compete in a single bout, which will be his most difficult test yet.
In the main event of a Showtime pay-per-view, Paul is scheduled to face MMA legend, Anderson Silva.
Paul has attempted to set up a fight and a date with three potential opponents so far this year. Tommy Fury, the half-brother of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, was the first.
When Fury was unable to obtain a visa and enter the United States, that fight was called off. After that, he attempted to arrange a match with Hasim Rahman Jr., the son of another former fighter named Hasim Rahman Sr. But Rahman Jr., a heavyweight, was unable to comply with Paul’s weight restrictions, and the bout was abandoned.
Paul most recently defeated Woodley in December 2021 by way of a KO in the sixth round. The right hook that caused Woodley to faceplant was a crushing one. After defeating former WBC middleweight champion Julio César Chávez Jr. by split decision, Silva defeated former UFC light heavyweight champion, Tito Ortiz, in the first round in September 2021.
“He’s talented and has more experience than me, and I’m the young guy. The odds are stacked against me because he possesses the height, weight, and reach. He has excellent range, is highly technical, has a strong defense, and moves well “Paul stated during the closing presser. “On Saturday night, I’ll have to perform flawlessly. Though I’m prepared for battle, I’m aware that I’m capable of doing that. Skill is important, but ultimately it may come down to who wants it more, and I think that’s me.”
The fight, which would have been Paul’s third straight victory this year, was almost called off during fight week after Silva’s remarks that he had been twice knocked out in training camp less than a month earlier surfaced. Silva afterward issued a statement clarifying that he had misspoken and had meant to indicate that he had been knocked down twice.
However, the Arizona commission took the initial remarks seriously enough to organize an urgent meeting and confirm Silva’s fitness for combat. They gave him the okay to fight, so everything will proceed as scheduled. The whole fight scheduled for Saturday night in Glendale, Arizona, as well as the most recent odds, are included below.

Paul vs. Silva Prediction
Paul and Silva have very different professional histories. Paul has a meager amount of experience, having only been a professional boxer for less than five years.
Silva, meanwhile, has been competing since 1997 and is regarded as one of the best MMA fighters ever. He has a 3-1 pro boxing record, which includes his victory over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in 2021.
Silva is regarded by Paul as one of his heroes and as the best striker in the annals of combat sports. This makes it simple to say that Paul will face a challenge from Silva that he didn’t face in his fights with Tyron Woodley, Ben Askren, and Nate Robinson.
Paul will be facing off against one of the most fluid stand-up fighters in history, not a ground-focused MMA fighter. Based on how he performs against a living icon, Paul’s technique and skill will either be revealed to be real or fake.
Time is the one thing that Silva has going against him that you cannot overcome. Silva is a solid 47 years old at this point, which makes him quite ancient. When Silva enters the ring on October 29, it is to be anticipated that he will move much more slowly than what fight fans recall from even his final days in the UFC.
I can’t support Paul against one of the best fighters of all time, though. Despite the obvious physical disadvantage, he will confront, Silva should outbox and out-technique Paul on the way to at least a split-decision victory. After all, age is just a number and class is permanent. Even if “The Problem Child” easily defeats a martial arts legend like “The Spider” by decision, this is still a win-win situation for him.
Pick for the bet: Silva by Decision.

When Does Paul vs Silva End?
Now that we’ve examined the notion of this fight ending inside the distance, the question becomes when does this fight end?
Paul is most favored to get it done between rounds 4 and 6. While for Silva, the oddsmakers see the likeliest point of him securing the finish between rounds 3 and 5.
These changes seem reasonable to me given that both appear to be gathering information about one another during the opening round of rounds. I believe both parties appreciate each other to a sufficient degree based on what I can gather a good understanding of each other’s qualities, so neither will approach the other hastily before getting to know them better.
Silva Getting it done in the fourth frame and knocking the combat sports disruptor out is a prop bet that, in my opinion, offers significant value.
