Anderson Silva knocked Tito Ortiz out cold and then gave opponent’s girlfriend a first-class flight home

Anderson Silva has shown he can box recently, but he keeps showing he’s a first-class human being, too.

The Brazilian knocked Tito Ortiz out in the first round of their contest last weekend and he did it with a devastating hook.

However, after the fight, Silva gave up his first-class plane ticket to Ortiz’s girlfriend after the airline made a mistake, Ortiz revealed.

“He just actually gave up his first-class ticket for Amber to sit here,” Ortiz said. “The airline messed up and Anderson Silva gave up his seat for Amber to sit next to me.

“Anderson Silva, you’re the man, dude. I appreciate it, thank you very much. Amazing man, nothing but respect. Even after the fight, he gave it up and let Amber sit here. Thank you, Anderson, I appreciate it. Mad respect, dude.”

So The Spider knocked him out and made sure his girlfriend got home in style? Talk about winning in style.

And this is all after Ortiz told Silva he was going to hurt him when they faced off in the ring, too. But Silva stayed out of the trash-talk and let his hands do the talking.

This isn’t the first-time Silva has shown his class. When Chris Weidman broke his leg at UFC 261 earlier this year, Silva was one of the first people to reach out to the American and offer his support.

That’s pretty incredible because Silva broke his leg against Weidman eight years earlier at UFC 168, and Weidman offered him no such support.

Silva is a man in demand after his latest victory. The 46 year old also defeated former world champion Julio César Chávez Jr earlier this year and now fight fans are curious how far Silva can take his boxing skill.

However, UFC president Dana White doesn’t think Jake Paul will be calling him out.

“I f****** guarantee you this; you ain’t gonna see Jake Paul calling Anderson Silva out.

“That I f****** promise you. (Silva is) his size, and he’s actually good. He’s old, which is what Jake Paul likes to fight old guys.

“He likes to fight old guys that are too small and that are absolutely, positively washed up.”

Paul countered White’s comments by calling for a fight with Jorge Masvidal.
