YouTube star turned boxer Jake Paul looks set to have his toughest test in the ring tonight as he takes on arguably the greatest mixed martial artist of all time, Anderson Silva. Paul currently boasts an unblemished 5-0 record as a professional boxer, and has knocked out each opponent he has taken on so far. Could the UFC prove a bout too far or will the years weight heavy for the 47-year-old ex-champ? The evening's event is underway. Grab yourself a PPV for a Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva live stream from anywhere today.

We've got all the info on how to live stream Paul vs Silva no matter where you are. And if you happen to be travelling away from home, and can't access your usual domestic boxing broadcaster, you can always use a VPN to tune into Paul vs Silva from abroad and bypass any geo-restrictions.

Twenty-five-year-old Paul's most recent appearance in the ring came in December last year, in a 6th round kick-out rematch victory over ex-UFC champ Tyron Woodley – having already recorded a split decision points win against the American the previous August.

After proposed fights against Tommy Fury and Hasim Rahman Jr fell through, Paul is now lined up to take on a very different type of fighter in the form of legendary MMA star Silva.

The veteran Brazilian notched up a fearsome 16-fight win streak in the UFC as a middleweight, but the 47-year-old has turned his attention to boxing in recent years.

Since leaving the Octagon, Silva has chalked up two boxing wins, with a split-decision victory over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr and a KO win over fellow UFC star Tito Ortiz.

When is the Paul vs Silva fight? Time and date

Paul vs Silva is staged at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. The fight takes place on Saturday, October 29.

The event is set to start at 9pm ET / 6pm PT in the US, with the Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva start time expected at around 11.30pm ET / 8.30pm PT.

Fans in the UK can tune into all the action from 1am GMT, with Paul vs Silva set to begin at around 3.30am GMT (big reminder - the clocks go back this weekend in the UK), so you'll have to wait a little longer than you think.

In Australia, the main event is set to get underway at 2.30pm AEDT and in New Zealand fans are looking at a 4.30pm NZST start for the start of the big fight.

Watch a Paul vs Silva live stream if you're abroad

If you're out of the country right now, you can still get access to your regular live stream - simply duck and dive, and use the best VPN around to get past those geo-restrictions.

With most domestic broadcasters locking streaming access to the country they're based in, you may hit a wall when it comes to accessing a Paul vs Silva live stream when you're overseas. However, by getting yourself a handy streaming VPN, you can hop on a server within the UK or Australia (or anywhere else for that matter depending on where your online content is geo-restricted to), and this will switch your IP address to make it appear as if you're watching right from the comfort of your own home.

How to watch a Paul vs Silva live stream using a VPN

If you're outside of your preferred broadcaster's boundaries, you can use a VPN to unblock any geo-restrictions and watch a Paul vs Silva live stream as if you were right at home. Here's our step-by-step guide on how to do just that.

  • VPN - standing for virtual private network - offers security and anonymity as you browse online, using set protocols to encrypt your data and make it unreadable to outsiders.
  • As a part of that, you can also switch your IP address, which identifies your location.
  • Most VPNs offer a list of locations where its servers are based to join. Connecting to them switches your IP to appear as if you're browsing from that country/city. In turn, you can then access content locked to that country.
  • When it comes to finding a VPN, you should make sure you find the best one that's suitable for your chosen device, with VPN providers offering compatibility for a ton of devices, as well as nifty free VPNs.
  • Once you've made the decision for the most suitable VPN for your device and your means for using a VPN, sign-up and install it
  • To live stream Paul vs Silva, all you need to do is select the right server from its list of available servers and connect. You'll then be able to hop over those geo-restrictions, with your broadcaster of choice opening its online gates to you.
  • We also want to ensure your money is well spent, so we would recommend going for a VPN that offers a risk free trial. ExpressVPN is one of many providers that has a 30-day money back guarantee.
