‘The Problem Child’ Jake Paul isn’t done calling out MMA fighters and the recent addition to his list is the UFC welterweight champion, Kamaru Usman. Paul, fresh from his KO win over Ben Askren, has called out ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ and has offered him the “biggest payday” of his career.

Jake Paul recently saw his close ally Jorge Masvidal get knocked out cold by Kamaru Usman at the main event of UFC 261. While Paul was present in the arena, he seemed to have noted the popularity of Usman. Hence, the YouTuber turned boxer turned to social media, accepted the challenge to fight Kamaru Usman, and took a dig at the UFC chief Dana White.

He wrote, “[Kamaru Usman] if your boss Dana gives you permission to box me and make more money than you ever have, let me know and we can lace them up. I promise it will be your biggest pay day.”

Kamaru Usman is one of the most reputed champions in the UFC and is already considered a welterweight legend in the sport. He has challengers chomping at the bit to fight him for the gold and will be busy in the octagon for the foreseeable future. So, a boxing clash with a YouTuber might not be possible for the UFC welterweight champion right now.
