Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship is willing to pay Mike Tyson more than $20 million for one boxing match with no gloves on, and the promotion thought Wanderlei Silva was an ideal opponent for an “intriguing” clash with the boxing legend.
“The Axe Murderer” said he’s in.
Silva, a former PRIDE champion, is one of the greatest MMA fighter of all times. The Brazilian veteran, who in July turns 44, hasn’t fought since a quadrilogy with Quinton Jackson in September 2018 that ended with a second-round knockout loss. Silva’s overall MMA record stands at 35-14-1 with one no-contest.
