On June 19, Mexico local time, a high-profile crossover battle was staged as scheduled, when the 46-year-old former UFC middleweight champion "Spider-Man" Anderson Silva will participate in a professional boxing match against former middleweight world boxing champion Chaviz Jr. The match was scheduled for an agreement weight of 180 pounds and was scheduled for 8 rounds. As the match draws near, Chavez Jr. publicly warns Spider-Man to be careful, as boxing and MMA are two completely different things.
The 35-year-old Chavez jr. currently maintains a record of 52 wins, 5 losses, 1 draw, 34 KO opponents, the last 5 games lost 3, the state is not ideal, this time invited Silva to play, but also to see the aura that the other side has and is not good at boxing disadvantages, unexpectedly the little Chavez team expected that Silva actually accepted the game, as for the specific appearance fee, the outside world has not officially disclosed, but from the Silva last UFC game to take the figure of 600,000 US dollars, it can be seen, The offer from Chavez Jr. would be 600,000 higher.
Chávez Jr. warned: "We weigh 180 pounds, and by the day of the race we may weigh 190 or 200 pounds, which is close to heavyweight." The first 3-4 rounds of the game, the perennial may be a little anxious, after 4 rounds is I dominate the game, I think there is a high probability that I will KO him. I played to make him understand that boxing and MMA are two worlds entirely. ”
It is worth mentioning that in recent times, some UFC boxers have defected to boxing, including the former UFC sub-middleweight champion Woodley, the former UFC star, ONE world champion Asken have all turned to professional boxing to share a piece of the pie, the opponent is not very strong, Woodley's opponent is the Internet red boxer Logan Paul, and Asken is also defeated by Paul's boxing, before the mouth cannon Connor is also in order to get gold, had to obey Mayweather's will to come to the boxing ring, was beaten up and took money away.
And this time the confrontation between Little Chavez and Spider-Man, the suspense is not big, because Little Chavez is no longer good, it is enough to kill the opponent, Spider-Man's professional boxing record is only 1 win and 1 loss, 1 defeat or injury to leave the game, counted in the list of KO, Silva's boxing level may be more outstanding in MMA, but in the professional boxing world can only be regarded as a third-rate level, June 19 is also a high probability of lying flat in the ring.
