‘The Problem Child’ Jake Paul hasn’t deprived the UFC of his attention as he continues to tarnish the MMA promotions’ image publicly. Since he entered the combat scene, Paul has constantly taken shots at MMA kingpins, especially the ones from the UFC.

While Bellator’s Anthony Taylor is Paul’s teammate, the 24-year-old has already fought two former UFC fighters in Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley. Besides, Jake Paul has challenged the biggest superstars from the roster like Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor, Jorge Masvidal, and others. The list also includes UFC President Dana White who got into a lengthy social media altercation with Paul.

Well, all of it could have ended after Dana White began ignoring ‘The Problem Child’. However, Jake Paul doesn’t seem to have such intentions. He put out a fresh banter and re-named the Ultimate Fighting Championship as Underpaid Fighter’s Club in his latest tweet.

Per reports, Jake Paul has also bought stocks in UFC’s parent company Endeavour to see an increased minimum wage for the fighters. He has been vocal about the issue for a long time, with several UFC fighters complaining about the same. In the wake of Francis Ngannou’s win against Ciryl Gane at UFC 270, the issue became more prominent.

Ngannou protested for receiving only $600k from his scheduled fights in the UFC, whereas boxing can offer him multi-million paydays. It caught Paul’s attention, who seemingly offered a deal to ‘The Predator’. As a result, a frustrated Dana White even threatened to sue his heavyweight champion. Thus, Jake Paul is clearly forcing the UFC kingpins to react to his calls.

Jake Paul vs UFC is getting more and more intense

Amid all the differences between both sides, Dana White still doesn’t write away the chances of seeing Jake Paul compete in the UFC. After a successful stint of 5-0 in boxing, Paul has teased a move to the MMA universe. Former UFC lightweight champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov, had offered ‘The Problem Child’ to appear in his Eagle MMA.

Thus, the 24-year-old is clearly gaining momentum in the MMA universe. Having knocked out two former UFC fighters in the boxing ring, Jake Paul is still an undefeated combatant. Meanwhile, his global stardom is rising due to his interactions with MMA kingpins. Henceforth, ‘The Problem Child’ appears to be giving a tough time to UFC’s administrators and management already.
