Jake Paul was earlier set to face an established professional boxer, Hasim Rahman Jr. in August. However, due to weight issues, the fight got canceled at the last moment. Now, the 5-0 boxer has announced that he would return to the ring in October. Though the opponent is not clear, the Ohio-based boxer is reportedly in rumors for a fight against former UFC Middleweight champion Anderson Silva.

‘The Problem Child’ has not been to any boxing contest since the previous year. Now, his comeback fight storylines indicate he is most likely to take a shot against an opponent, who has the longest title reign in UFC history. As a result, if this fight reaches fruition, it is going to be a tough battle for the 25-year-old social media star.

As soon as, this news broke, fans poured their remarks on it.

A verified fan wrote, “We might finally get the Jake Paul KO. We’ve been waiting for since 2018.”

Another fan opined that if Paul won the bout, then he would get sick because he wouldn’t be able to digest Paul’s victory against the legendary fighter, Silva.

Another fan wrote that if Paul fights Anderson Silva, then he deserves massive respect.

A Twitter user wanted to see Silva hitting a front kick on Paul’s face following the sound of the first bell. However, Paul wouldn’t lock horns with Silva in the Octagon. It would be a boxing match.

Another fan got surprised by this news.

After thrashing former UFC welterweight champion, Tyron Woodley in a rematch, Paul called out big names for his next fight. However, in the end, he finalized Tommy Fury’s name for the fight, who later pulled out of the bout in August before Rahman Jr. Both these fights didn’t take place.
