I’ll quit boxing if you raise the pay and get all UFC fighters healthcare, Paul tells White
Jake Paul decided to do something good for the MMA world, or for the UFC fighters. He called on the head of the organization Dana White to make changes that would surely be welcomed by all fighters and fans of combat sports.
Jake Paul decided to do something good for the MMA world, or for the UFC fighters. He called on the head of the organization Dana White to make changes that would surely be welcomed by all fighters and fans of combat sports.
On the first day of 2022, Jake Paul posted a challenge to UFC boss Dana White, in which he is trying to get a fight with Jorge Masvidal, and he also wants to help other fighters.
“I will quit boxing immediately and fight Masvidal in the UFC if you agree to raise the minimum fighter payout per fight to $50,000 (currently $12,000), guarantee that 50% of the annual proceeds will go into the pockets of the fighters and provide long-term health care for everyone,” he tweeted.
He also added that White has five days to accept the offer and must implement the changes by the end of May. “After that I will quit boxing immediately, join USADA (US Anti-Doping Agency) and agree to one fight in the UFC against Masvidal,” he added.
It is not too much to expect that White would agree to such conditions, first of all it would be really expensive, secondly he is certainly not going to let Paul dictate anything.
Paul has subsequently sent a message to all UFC fighters saying they deserve higher wages, long term health care and freedom.
“I’m not your enemy, I’m your advocate,” he concluded. So it’s not surprising how this will play out.
