Anderson Silva's son, Gabriel Silva, is set to take on YouTube personality Okem Jibunor Rose in a boxing match under the Misfits Boxing banner.

Silva and Rose will clash on the undercard of Misfits Boxing 11, which goes down at the York Hall in London on Nov. 17. The card will be headlined by influencers Jarvis and BDave, with Jully Poca and Alaena Vampira clashing for the women’s cruiserweight title in the co-main event.

While the 26-year-old Silva has been competing in kickboxing since 2019, he made his pro boxing debut back in April at Hollywood Fight Nights, where he earned a decision win against Angelo Thompson after four rounds. He then followed it up with a first-round knockout win over MMA media member Ben Davis at Misfits Boxing 9 in September. Silva carries the legacy of one of the greatest mixed martial artists of all time. His father ruled over the UFC’s middleweight division from 2006 to 2012, leaving behind the likes of Rich Franklin, Chael Sonnen, Vitor Belfort, Demian Maia, Forrest Griffin and Dan Henderson in his wake.

A man of his words…@BenTheBaneDavis showed a lot of heart too, it takes a lot to go up there.
