It was considered that Anderson Silva announced his retirement from the sport shortly after beating Júlio Cesar Chávez Jr. last Saturday (19). The triumph over the former world champion, however, seems to have given the Brazilian an extra incentive to continue in the 'noble art'. In an interview with 'MMA Junkie', 'Spider' talked about the adventures of y Logan and Jake Paul in the modality and says he can face them in the future.

“Yes, absolutely (I can face them). I respect them. I have a great relationship with both brothers and yes, I think a fight against them is possible too. This is funny. It's a struggle, but it's fun. Logan and his brother (Jake Paul) are amazing guys. People like to talk bad about guys, but they're really good people. I respect them both and I respect the sport. I think anything is possible. I think the next fight could be with Logan Paul, maybe,” said Anderson.
One of the ways to Anderson Silva in sport, it was even suggested by Jake Paul. The YouTuber, who faces the former UFC champion Tyron woodley, praised the Brazilian's performance against Chávez Jr. and took the opportunity to offer a 'Spider' fight against Roy Jones Jr. at the same event.
Considered, by many, as the greatest MMA fighter of all time, Anderson has always expressed his desire to switch to boxing to measure his strength against Roy Jones Jr., one of his greatest idols in the 'noble art'. Now, combat between veterans can finally happen.
