Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva preview: Has the YouTube star met his match?

Stop and think for a minute. Go back about five years or so. Did any of us have an inkling we’d be talking about Jake Paul and Anderson Silva throwing down in a boxing ring? Or that the fight would come after Paul had already KO’d a former UFC champion?

To be fair, I’m sure there are many reading this who had no clue who Jake Paul was five years ago (I’d be one of them). Nevertheless, this is what we find ourselves on the cusp of witnessing.

Given some of the content Paul has put out over the years, I can understand how some people might want to see him get his block knocked off.
