Anderson Silva vs. Chris Weidman: A New Chapter in the Rivalry

MMA legend Anderson Silva returns to the ring to face one of his biggest rivals: Chris Weidman. This exciting boxing match will be part of the Jake Paul vs. Gervonta Davis card on November 14 at the Kaseya Center in Miami. The match, which will be broadcast live on Netflix as the opening fight on the main card, will be contested over six rounds in the heavyweight category.

Anderson and his team approached me immediately after the Jake Paul vs. ‘Tank’ Davis fight was announced and said they would like to be part of the event and would like to fight Chris Weidman.

The fight will give Silva the opportunity to avenge his MMA defeats against Weidman, although in a boxing ring. Silva was knocked out by Weidman in July 2013, ending his historic 2,457-day reign as UFC middleweight champion. The rematch took place five months later, and Silva lost by TKO after suffering a terrible leg fracture.

I’m super excited to embark on another battle against Chris. We have history and on Friday, November 14th, live only on Netflix, we are putting another stamp on our chapter together. It will be a show for the fans!

Anderson Silva
Weidman, who was UFC middleweight champion for 2 and a half years after defeating Silva, will make his professional boxing debut.

I am undefeated in boxing and will remain so on Friday, November 14th, live on Netflix. I am the ‘original spider killer’.

Chris Weidman
Silva has a 3-2 record as a boxer, with a victory over former middleweight champion Julio César Chávez Jr. in 2021 and a loss to Jake Paul in his most recent outing in 2022. The fight promises to be an event full of excitement and meaning, with two legends seeking to close an important chapter in their careers.
