the defeat of Anderson Silva for Jake Paul continues to resonate in the combat sports community. The Brazilian, who was surpassed by the YouTuber last Saturday (29), has already declared that he wants to continue in action and received another interesting challenge from the former UFC champion for a boxing clash.

On his official 'Twitter', Luke Rockhold showed that he was attentive and it didn't take long for him to propose a fight in front of Anderson Silva. The North American, who was already UFC middleweight champion (up to 83,9 kg), claimed to be capable of beating the Brazilian and dared to say that he would bet his house on the challenge.

"I win Anderson Silva in boxing. I bet the house”, wrote Rockhold on his official Twitter account.

Luke, in fact, recently retired from MMA. In August of this year, the North American suffered a defeat against Paulo borrachinha in the unanimous decision of the judges, in a confrontation that could show their resistance. After the announcement, the former belt holder took off his gloves and declared his end to martial arts, having left behind a record of 16 triumphs and six setbacks in his career.
