With just one fight in amateur kickboxing, Kalyl Silva is preparing for his next steps in the sport. And, to reach a 'star' level, the athlete has great support from his father, Anderson Silva, who marked his time as one of the best fighters in mixed martial arts.

On Tuesday (19), on his official account on 'Instagram', Kalyl published a video in which he did a 'loose' – which may suggest a more active and technical type of training – with 'Spider', who applied a trip and, in a relaxed manner, made some transitions on the ground.

“If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to live with Anderson Silva…”, wrote Kalyl.

Meanwhile, Kalyl Silva prepares for his second kickboxing fight. In his debut, he impressed by knocking out Anthony Reynaga via body kick just five seconds into the fight. At 22 years old, the Brazilian still says he is not thinking about a possible migration to mixed martial arts.

Anderson Silva, in turn, beat two renowned athletes by leaving MMA aside and focusing on boxing. The Brazilian defeated Júlio Cezar Chávez Jr and Tito Ortiz in sequence and has not yet announced his next step in the 'noble art'.
