Anderson Silva Takes On TWO Sparring Partners At The Same Time, Absolutely Dominates

He's still got it.

Anderson Silva sparring BOTH of his sons at the SAME TIME shows the UFC legend has still got it at the age of 46.

​Silva's two sons ply their trade as kickboxers, with 'The Spider' taking on the pair of budding fighters in a light sparring session. 

The video shows the former UFC middleweight champion easily handling Kalyl, 22, and Gabriel, 24, at the same time.

In trademark style, Silva slipped the punches and even foot swept Gabriel as the MMA legend took no prisoners, dominating the session.

The clip of Silva controlling his two sons could be a hint that he'll continue to fight professionally following his UFC retirement in 2020.

He called time on his storied MMA career after losing to Uriah Hall in October 2020. 

But he made a triumphant return to combat sports when he outpointed ex-world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in a boxing bout. 

Silva then had another fight inside the squared circle, thrashing fellow UFC icon Tito Ortiz in one round last September. 

He's been named as a potential opponent for Jake Paul, with Chris Weidman backing a potential showdown. 

"He’s calling out smaller guys than him," the ex-UFC middleweight champion said on his podcast. 

"Anderson Silva is not [under UFC] contract, he’s a professional boxer, he’s been looking great.

"He just beat a former world champion boxer [earlier this year] and they’re right around the same size. Why aren’t we hearing him call Anderson Silva out? I would love to see that."
