Anderson Silva On Potential Logan Paul Boxing Match: ‘Anything Is Possible’

Anderson Silva is set to box Tito Ortiz on September 11 under the Triller Fight Club banner, yet he was recently linked to a fight against Logan Paul.

For whatever reason, the fight never came to fruition, but Silva says that fight is one he would take. However, he isn’t focused on any of that as he says all he is worried about is training.

“Let’s go see. Anything is possible,” Silva said of a potential fight with Paul, while taking part in a virtual press conference to otherwise discuss his bout with Ortiz (via BoxingScene). “We can’t control that situation. I can control one thing—training hard, listening to my coach. The other side, I can’t control that. If that happens, I’m prepared for that. If not, I will continue training.”

Silva made his return to the ring in June and edged out Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. by decision. If he gets past Ortiz on September 11, he mentions a fight with Logan Paul or another influencer could be next. Paul, of course, is coming off his exhibition bout against Floyd Mayweather.

“Everything’s possible. I love fighting. Fighting is a big part of my life,” notes Silva. “I challenge myself every single moment. I never stop training. Triller came to me and asked about this opportunity to fight Tito. It’s a great honor, he’s a legend. I saw Tito and said, “He’s a monster, this is amazing.” I’m a big fan of Tito. This is a big show for the fans. The shows for the fans are completely different. I think me, Vitor, Tito and other MMA fighters are ready to show what we can do. I am waiting for the next challenge, maybe it comes from Logan Paul. We shall see.”
