Jake Paul, 25, will meet Anderson Silva in a boxing match on October 29 at Gila River Arena in Phoenix. Although Silva has a significant advantage in terms of combat sports expertise and experience, the age disparity might make for an interesting matchup.
“I’m interested in all combat,” Diaz said
When Diaz was asked who he thinks will win, he said the following,
“I think Anderson for sure – I didn’t like when he fought Cesar Chavez Jr. and they, I think it may have been the organization they were fighting under or whatever, but they were talking like all surprised that Anderson was beating Chavez Jr. Respect to Chavez Jr., Senior, all the boxing… But why are they acting surprised that Anderson Silva is doing good? What do you even think Chavez Jr. is even doing in there with Anderson Silva?
“They considered him the GOAT in the UFC for a long time, you know? There was no appreciation for that and I thought that was stupid.”
“I think they’d be stupid if they’re trying to count him (Silva) out at all in this fight, but I also see that Jake Paul could win or do well too,” Diaz said. “Young, motivated, strong, inspired to box. So, I think it makes for an interesting fight.”
At UFC 279, Diaz faces Khamzat Chimaev in the main event, and the fight could be his last in the UFC.
