“Had No Clue He Was Fighting”: Jake Paul Claiming to Have “Greater” Skills Than Conor McGregor in a Recent Clip Draws the Ire of Fans

In the ongoing saga between Jake Paul and Conor McGregor, the tension shows no signs of dissipating. During a recent appearance on DAZN Boxing’s YouTube channel, Paul engaged in a game of Finish the Sentence, providing insights into a hypothetical clash with McGregor. According to Paul, a bout between him and McGregor would be “pretty freaking massive, entertaining, and fun.” Confident in his abilities, he asserted, “I would beat his a**.”

Paul claimed that McGregor didn’t want to face him. He stated, “Him knowing my skill level is greater than his in such a short amount of time.” Paul even claimed to be McGregor’s most significant potential opponent in combat sports. With Paul’s recent signing with the PFL, the prospect of a showdown with McGregor looms large, adding another layer to this ongoing feud.

Fans not impressed with Jake Paul bragging about being better than McGregor

As the video of Jake Paul making such huge claims surfaced on social media, fans were quick to blast the YouTuber for his remarks. One fan mocked him, pointing out, “I had no idea he was fighting until someone put this tweet on my timeline.”

Another fan stated the error in the captions and pointed out that even though Paul might be popular in boxing when it comes to MMA, the case isn’t the same. The fan wrote, “Misleading headline. He said ‘the sport,’ which is singular, so he’s likely referring to boxing. He never said ‘combat sports.”

Meanwhile, a fan also chimed in, cheekily stating, “Had no clue he was fighting.”

A fan wrote a witty remark and asked Paul to enter the octagon before making such claims. The fan stated, “Well butter my biscuit and call it gravy! Jakey-boy really thinks he’s the bee’s knees, huh? Let’s see him try and tango in the ring like McGregor before he starts singing his own praises!”

One fan took shots at Paul for his next fight. He remarked, “Joke Paul went from selling out arenas and having 20 million subscribers to now having to fight in a hotel lobby.”

Another fan pointed out the difference in the popularity of influencers in boxing and MMA. The fan claimed, “Boxing and mma way different influencer boxing is bigger then actual boxing it seems but MMA is top of the combat sports and Jake is not known for MMA.”

Overall fans didn’t appreciate Paul attacking McGregor in the recent clip. In a recent social media update, Jake Paul shared exciting news about his upcoming boxing match against Andre August on December 15th. The noteworthy revelation is that the fight will be accessible for free on the DAZN app.
