LOS ANGELES — The YouTube sensation known in some quarters as “The Problem Child” did not hold back on the expletives while dealing with hecklers during his presscon with UFC legend Anderson Silva.
Decked with diamonds the size of marbles, Jake Paul credits the MMA legend quoting: I respect Anderson but I’m still going to knock him out in under 5 rounds.
In contrast to his past press conferences, Jake was more cordial to his opponent this time around. He has the utmost respect for Silva as he followed his career since he was a kid.
Nicknamed “Spider” Silva, Jake Paul was determined to ink a tattoo of a spider should he lose to the fighting legend come fight night.
But Silva refused stating; “Please don’t! My kids have it but I hate tattoos bro, note I don’t have any.”
Also present during this event was his brother Logan Paul, who currently has 23.8 million instagram followers and was a previous opponent of Floyd Mayweather during an pay per view exhibition bout.
Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva is slated on October 29 at the Gila River Arena in Phoenix, Arizona and will be available for live broadcast via Showtime pay per view.
