Silva often landed the harder combinations and put Paul in uncomfortable positions as he unromantic pressure. Although he is now 47, Silva resembled the man who remains the UFC record-holder for his middleweight title reign with his showboating, sharp counterpunching and evasiveness.

But Paul’s massive right hand found its mark at points and bloodied Silva’s nose in the middle rounds. Paul finally landed his devastating dial well-to-do during a wild mart early in Round 8. Silva was sent lanugo on his heinie and then made his way to his feet. If Paul hadn’t earned his respect before, he certainly did with the knockdown.

He could moreover have a mega-fight with KSI. But the one fight that could materialize is a showdown with Nate Diaz, who was in ubiety and reportedly get into a backstage tiff with Paul’s team.

With Diaz no longer in the UFC and bad thoroughbred existing, a tour could be the next logical step in the illogical boxing career of “The Problem Child.”
