Jake Paul is consistent in his views. And he’s clearly not afraid to take risks. He’s been a long-time critic of the UFC boss for the wages fighters in the best MMA organization in the world are paid. Now he’s offered an interesting solution.
Not that youtuber and boxer Jake Paul is exactly a popular figure on the fight scene. But virtually everyone agrees with him that UFC fighters earn far less than they deserve.
Paul constantly lashes out at the UFC boss because of the poor conditions for fighters. Dana White, however, more or less ignores his criticism and makes nothing of it. What’s more, he refuses to let any UFC star fight Paul in a boxing match.
He is depriving UFC fighters of the opportunity to earn an interesting income. So Paul decides to put White under even more pressure. He would like to sign a one-fight contract with the UFC and take on Conor McGregor under MMA rules.
“If I win, the UFC will have to agree to my fighter pay terms and health insurance proposal. If I lose, I will donate my entire paycheck to UFC fighters making less than $50k and never mention the UFC again,” Paul offered on Twitter.
Paul committed to the challenge after seeing a video of McGregor’s training session on social media. He is now working on at least his boxing skills while still recovering from a leg injury.
Paul didn’t leave the said video without comment either. He said he would knock McGregor out in boxing and MMA.
