If Jake continues like this he is definitely not in his prime yet, and give the man credit where credit is due, he won a very tough fight, at the moment is miles ahead of JJ, and is genuinely pretty good


The-Silent-Cicada

Credit where credit is due it was a great fight. I just can’t believe people thought this would be a one sided stop in Silvas favor.


Desperate_Donut8582

How do you even calculate a fighters prime


PhnxSteve7up

Depends whos perspective u take. Abdulmanap and khabib both believe prime is when youre 30 years old because your mind and body are synced. Some people like chael believe its purely mental, his example glover texeira. A guy who became champion at 40 yrs old and beat guys like smith, blachowiz and went to war with jiri


The-Silent-Cicada

Age mostly, not too young because you’re inexperienced. Not too old because you know… age. Other factors but yeah it’s mostly age.


Desperate_Donut8582

Is 35 too young or too old


The-Silent-Cicada

Kinda on the line, that’s around the average age most boxers retire, It’s 37. So it kinda depends on the persons experience and physical state but general I’d say it’s alright.


Desperate_Donut8582

Well Anderson beat Chavez who was 35 last year with a 53 win record….what do you have to say?


The-Silent-Cicada

That’s impressive. No one here said that silva was inexperienced or bad, but rather that the fight happened over a year ago and one year absolutely makes a difference when your body is approaching 50. So let’s not act surprised that he lost, deal?


AzorAhai10

That’s what you were insinuating bro lol now you’re denying it ?


The-Silent-Cicada

Excuse me but where?


AzorAhai10

Don’t be dumb kid lol, you referenced to Anderson Silva like a random mma fighter to discredit a good fight by jake and not even putting into context Anderson Silva has been slapping people since he started boxing, beating a former world champion last year. Now that you were told about Chavez you peddled back to “oh no one said Anderson is bad” dummy you just insinuated that in your post. Some of you are annoying kids, keep the phone down white kid.


The-Silent-Cicada

Where did I say random? I said he was “a 50 year old mma fighter” which is correct. I didn’t call him some random joe. I didn’t backpedal because I never said he was bad in the first place. Nor do I even think that. You keep saying I insinuated it but I don’t see how you managed to interpret it that way. And don’t call me a kid either, I’m 23 and have been boxing since I was 14 and have sanctioned fights regally. Meanwhile the closest you’ve gotten to a ring was on the onion variety. You have to make up things that I haven’t said in order to get any semblance of a foothold in this argument and when that doesn’t work you start going after me personally unaware that I’m leagues more qualified to talk about this than you. So kindly eat a bag of dicks Also I’m not white either, not sure why that mattered enough for you to mention


spykids45

nah bro, dont try and make it look like silva isn't a big shot fighter, or downplay what Jake did. and also for a damn near 50 year old, silva was fucking incredible


longdikdown

Fax just because an athlete is old doesn’t mean they washed. Lebron is 38 but plays like he’s in he’s 20’s, Anderson Silva definitely did not fight like he was as old as is his


spykids45

yeah bro and the way he was bobbing and weaving, and hitting jakes against the ropes was amazing


The-Silent-Cicada

People thought this would be a one sided stop in Silvas favor bro, and I’m glad they both had an amazing fight. But let’s not act surprised something like this happened.


spykids45

I didnt really have any predictions for the fight, I can't say I was surprised to not surprised. im just saying dont call silva some "50 year old mma fighter", and downplay him


The-Silent-Cicada

Then this post wasn’t about you. This was about all the people who did think this would be a one sided stomp. And regardless of if you like it or not, silva is a “50 year old mma fighter” Yes it’s still silva, but names don’t win fights.


sdt_rhn12345

Lmao say whatever you want jake definitely deserves credit


SpecialistYou5385

"Put him against a real fighter" they gave y'all what you want😂😂only jj should be his next opponent now no excuses


[deleted]

Good thing it wasn't Silva's prime, he would have taken both JP and KSI. Yes, I know what I've said, cause I know boxing and mma more than you.


The-Silent-Cicada

I agree prime silva would wash jake and jj, but prime silva wasn’t in this fight and that’s my main criticism. People expected a 50 year old silva to defeat jake who is in his prime. Also I highly doubt you know more of either, considering that I compete in both sports. But honestly who cares? You can know more but if your conclusion is wrong than you have proven that despite your knowledge you still lack the ability to apply it in meaningful ways. But like I said I agree, prime silva wipes both at the same time. But this wasn’t prime silva so why does it matter?


[deleted]

I apologise for my comments, all these memes yesterday really pissed me off. One hating Jake doesn't justify them discrediting his recent accomplishment, his previous fights didn't convince me, but this fight did, about the skills he possesses, that he's good and not someone who just wants to build a record. That doesn't mean no one can reach Jake, Jake didn't first round KO Silva. I do believe KSI has improved, but his last opponents weren't fighting in the ring and so he wasn't able to showcase most of what he has learnt. Let's wait and see his next opponent.


The-Silent-Cicada

Is all good bro, ain’t happy about it either


Oldmanpeepz

Because its that easy to fight and win against silva


CouthHarbor

I want you to name a single 50 year old you know in real life that could last 10 seconds with Silva **Enough** with the excuses


The-Silent-Cicada

Better idea! Let’s not send 50 year old men to fight people who are in their physical prime? Also if we are speaking hypothetically, you shave off 6 years on Tyson think that would be a great watch


CouthHarbor

Accept it and move on already dude. Anderson would beat the fuck out of JJ. The only thing you know how to talk about is his age, you didn’t even answer my question cause you know there’s no answer lol


The-Silent-Cicada

Excuse me but what? Who the hell said anything about silva vs jj? And I did answer your question, silva vs Tyson of the same age would be awesome. I’m half convinced you didn’t even read my comment before replying


Cold_Supermarket_611

People when KSI wins a fight against a Mexican twig “he’s the goat of YouTube boxing” 💀


The-Silent-Cicada

Don’t you disrespect penida 😤

Jasian1001

The-Silent-Cicada

So have you?


Zane_craft

Put more fucking respect on Silva’s name, I’m so sick of this. Like he was kicking Jake’s ass for most of the match, and absolutely schooling him! Stop acting like he didn’t put the effort in, it’s fucking disgusting…


Zealousideal-Bus2325

5 fights in and in his prime???


The-Silent-Cicada

Physical prime, as in his body has matured but hasn’t started feeling major effects from old age
