Paul vs Silva Betting Analysis

The line for this one going the distance is pretty close with oddsmakers slightly favoring this contest ending inside the distance. I think both fighters have showcased a level of finishing ability in their fights (certainly with Silva through his illustrious combat career) so I can understand these odds.

I think the magnitude of this platform and the attention this fight is generating will goad each into looking for some form of flashy highlight reel ending here.

I ultimately do not see the verdict of the judges playing a role in the outcome of this clash. There is value, in my eyes, to pursue the prop bet on Paul versus Silva ending inside the distance.

Pick: No (-125)

Paul vs Silva Props  – Winning Method

Outcome Odds
Jake Paul by Decision or Technical Decision +180
Jake Paul by KO, TKO, or DQ +240
Draw +1200
Anderson Silva by Decision or Technical Decision +650
Anderson Silva by KO, TKO, or DQ +250

Decision Odds Favor Paul

Looking at the respective lines here, they lean more toward a Paul decision than Paul securing a knockout.

Conversely for Silva, the lines lean more towards a KO or TKO victory versus ‘The Spider’ garnering a points win.

Much has been made of the pronounced age difference between the two with Silva making his pro boxing debut when Paul was but a baby.

That being said, I do feel like ‘The Spider’ has at least one more left in the tank. I think the former decorated UFC middleweight champion stops ‘The Problem Child’ this weekend.

Pick: Anderson Silva by KO, TKO, or DQ (+250)

When Does Paul vs Silva End?

Now that we’ve examined the notion of this fight ending inside the distance, the question becomes when does this fight end?

Paul is most favored to get it done between rounds 4 and 6. While for Silva, the oddsmakers see the likeliest point of him securing the finish between rounds 3 and 5.

I think these odds make sense as I see both collecting intel on one another in that opening cluster of rounds. From what I can infer, I think both have an adequate level of respect for each other. A healthy awareness of each other’s attributes whereby neither will rush in recklessly without feeling the other out a bit.

Silva getting it done in the fourth frame and rendering the YouTuber/ combat sports disruptor unconscious is a prop bet that presents good value in my estimation.

Pick: Silva Round 4 (+2000)
