Jake Paul is a controversial figure in combat sports who continues to make headlines. Despite skepticism, Paul boasts an impressive 9-1 boxing record and now sets his sights on a transition to MMA.
Partnering with the PFL, Paul has now extended a lucrative $10 million offer to either Jorge Masvidal or Nate Diaz for an MMA showdown.
Amidst discussions with his brother Logan Paul, Jake Paul reaffirmed his serious intent regarding the $10 million offer. Currently, Paul is getting ready for his July 20 boxing bout against Mike Tyson. Netflix and Jake’s Most Valuable Promotions will work together on this event. Jake Paul wants to compete in an MMA match against either Diaz or Masvidal after that.
Paul stated: “I’m being so serious when I say that I want to fight them in MMA, either Masvidal or Diaz, in the PFL. Ten-million dollar offer. They will literally hide behind the fact, Masvidal, ‘You can’t even box. You, what the f**k you gonna do coming over to MMA, bro. I’m f**king from Miami, Florida bro. F**king f**k you. Don’t disrespect me.”
“And same with f**king Paddy [Pimblett] and [Sean] Strickland, all of these guys like hide behind these crazy things, but still none of them have shown up to the table to talk any business about anything, to make anything actually happen in a real fight, in a real spar. So, the offer still stands there.”
Jake Paul is currently gearing up for a headline-grabbing boxing match against the legendary Mike Tyson. This event is scheduled for July 20th at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. While the matchup may raise eyebrows, it undoubtedly captures the imagination of fans worldwide.
Alongside the much-discussed Paul vs. Tyson showdown, fans can anticipate an equally thrilling co-main event featuring a rematch between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano.
On the other hand, Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz are preparing for their own clash in the boxing ring. Dubbed ‘Last Man Standing,’ this event promises to deliver fireworks as two seasoned combatants go head-to-head. This will be a joint promotion between Masvidal’s Gamebred Boxing Promotions and Diaz’s own promotion.
