Silva went to work in Round 2, throwing some powerful jabs and playing some mind games. Paul wasn\u2019t phased though, and kept his power stroke throughout the round.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"image-ct inline\">\n<div class=\"m\"><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 767px) and (max-width: 1023px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1279px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1280px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/640\/320\/jake-paul.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1\" alt=\"Jake Paul (R) punches Anderson Silva of Brazil during their cruiserweight bout at Gila River Arena on October 29, 2022 in Glendale, Arizona.\u00a0\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<p>\n      Jake Paul (R) punches Anderson Silva of Brazil during their cruiserweight bout at Gila River Arena on October 29, 2022 in Glendale, Arizona.\u00a0<br \/>\n      <span class=\"copyright\">(Christian Petersen\/Getty Images)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Round 3 was a show, with over 80 punches thrown between the two fighters. Silva\u2019s face was bloodied in the round as well. Through four rounds, unofficial scoring had it at 39-37 in favor of Paul, but each round could have gone either way.<\/p>\n<p>Paul predicted a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/sports\/boxing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fifth-round knockout<\/a>, but it was Silva who connected a ton in the round for his best of the night. The end of the sixth round became a street fight as both fighters battled along the ropes, throwing jab after jab for the final 20 seconds, putting the crowd on its feet. Through seven, unofficial scoring had it at 68-65 Paul, so Silva had no choice but to be as aggressive as he had been all night, but Paul was able to knock him down. Silva got up quickly, but no matter what he did the rest of the round, it wasn\u2019t enough.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-ct inline\">\n<div class=\"m\"><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 767px) and (max-width: 1023px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1279px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1280px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/640\/320\/jake-paul-4.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1\" alt=\"Jake Paul (L) reacts after knocking down Anderson Silva of Brazil during their cruiserweight bout at Gila River Arena on October 29, 2022 in Glendale, Arizona.\u00a0\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<p>\n      Jake Paul (L) reacts after knocking down Anderson Silva of Brazil during their cruiserweight bout at Gila River Arena on October 29, 2022 in Glendale, Arizona.\u00a0<br \/>\n      <span class=\"copyright\">(Christian Petersen\/Getty Images)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/jake-paul-says-hes-banned-ufc-dana-whites-son-used-racial-slurs-him\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>JAKE PAUL SAYS HE&#8217;S BANNED FROM UFC, DANA WHITE&#8217;S SON USED &#8216;RACIAL SLURS AGAINST&#8217; HIM<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Paul landed 25% (83 of 336) of his punches, while Silva hit on 31% (79 of 251).
