At 50 years old, Anderson Silva is still winning fights.
He may still be more than a decade removed from one of the greatest peaks in UFC history, but the MMA legend added another victory to his boxing career with a TKO of former UFC champion Tyron Woodley three weeks ago.

Jake Paul’s fight against Anthony Joshua on Friday ended in the second round when Silva appeared to fake a knee strike (yes, really) before leveling Woodley with a series of right uppercuts. Woodley attempted to hug Silva on his way out, but fell and did not continue after waving a towel in his corner.
This match is a showdown of former Jake Paul victims. Silva was originally scheduled to face his old UFC rival Chris Weidman, but the American was forced to withdraw due to injury last month.
A victorious Silva soon called Weidman to arrange another date, while also mentioning plans to become a police officer.
