A few months ago, Jake Paul took to social media and put Conor McGregor on notice. Paul took shots at McGregor’s wife and went on to claim that he had offered him a total of $50 million for a potential showdown.
In an interview with Brandon Marshall and co. on I AM ATHLETE, Jake Paul stated that Conor McGregor has lost his fire and passion for the fight game. Paul added that McGregor is an easier fight for him than Floyd Mayweather and the Irishman will make the same mistake of underestimating Jake Paul.
In his last UFC fight, Conor McGregor suffered a loss to Dustin Poirier in the second round of their rematch. The stoppage loss was the first time McGregor had suffered a KO/TKO loss in his career and Jake Paul immediately took to social media to take shots at The Notorious One.
Jake Paul will be fighting former UFC fighter Ben Askren in April
Jake Paul has announced that his next fight will be against former ONE Champion and Bellator MMA welterweight champion Ben Askren. On the back of a win over Nate Robinson, Paul is confident that he will knock out Funky within the first round of their fight on April 17th.
The fight will mark Askren’s return to combat sports. The former UFC welterweight’s last fight was against fellow grappler Demian Maia, to whom Askren lost in Singapore, way back in 2019.
