Logan Paul accused of ‘hiding under exhibition rules’ by Anderson Silva’s coach

The current rumblings on the celebrity boxing scene have YouTuber Logan Paul returning to the ring to take on another combat sports legend. This time, Paul is reportedly in talks to face former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva.

After boxing fellow YouTuber KSI, Paul faced-off with Floyd Mayweather Jr. recently in an eight round exhibition bout. The fight had no judges and, despite knockouts being permitted, the match was completed without a winner being announced.

Silva recently took a win over former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. That victory, a split decision, was earned under pro boxing rules.
