Maroon 5 frontman, Adam Levine, recently made headlines after his conversations with Instagram model Sumner Stroh were made public. It was revealed that Levine had allegedly been sending inappropriate text messages to her. The hilarious and cringeworthy texts then took the internet by storm, becoming memes in no time. People started posting edited screenshots of the messages on social media sites, turning the Maroon 5 singer into the talk of the town.
Paul also became a part of this trend after he posted a photo of him edited into Levine’s conversation. He mocked Levine, who looked like he was praising Paul for his body and not his personality. “Guys Only Care About Looks smh…,” he wrote

Having shot to fame with his social media shenanigans, Paul ventured into boxing and has taken the sport by storm. But although he is currently 5-0, he has not faced any high-level competition yet.
Paul has only competed against MMA fighters who specialize in wrestling and have very little striking experience. Notably, he is now set to face another MMA legend, Anderson Silva, on October 29th.
Can Jake Paul beat Anderson Silva?
This will certainly be Paul’s toughest challenge, as Silva is touted as one of the best strikers to step foot in the Octagon. However, the former UFC middleweight champion is 47 years old and way past his prime.

Paul, on the other hand, is just 25 years old and in his athletic prime. In terms of experience, Silva does have the upper hand on Paul, but the YouTuber’s youthful exuberance will play a factor in the bout.
The difference in age might just be too much for Silva to beat Paul, who will be the favorite to win. However, if Paul needs to make his mark in the boxing world, he needs to face tougher competition than this.
