BIZARRE: Thoughts on the weekend in boxing and the latest pound for pound rankings | Mind Blowing Facts

A few thoughts after a busy boxing weekend:

  • Jake Paul picked up the most legitimate win of his boxing career, decisioning ex-MMA star Anderson Silva, a fight where Paul knocked Silva down in the eighth round. Paul will probably never beat a legitimately ranked boxer, but he doesn’t have to. Paul will enter 2023 with plenty of lucrative options, including Nate Diaz, Tommy Fury and fellow YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI. If Paul fights all three, he will make more money than any boxers will next year.
Paul improved to 6-0 in Saturday's bout against Silva.
