MMA Champ Offers to Train Jake Paul as Talks of UFC Debut Continue

Jake Paul ended 2021 on a high note with a stellar knockout win over Tyron Woodley last Saturday. This was undoubtedly the YouTuber’s biggest win to date, because Woodley was his toughest opponent. With this win, there is also wild news spreading about Jake Paul’s UFC debut and more.

For now, this just seems to be a rumor. However, Paul shares a rivalry with many UFC fighters and he’s keen on squaring off with them. Also, a lot of casual fans wish to see ‘The Problem Child’ transfer his prowess to the MMA side, as there are some noteworthy opponents for him.

Despite that, Paul hasn’t quite opened up on making his MMA debut soon. But recently, AJ McKee, Bellator featherweight champ, offered to train Jake Paul for a prospective MMA contest.

Speaking with TMZ Sports, he said, “He better come train with me. But he could do good, you know, I mean I feel like anybody that has a mindset and sets their mind on achieving a goal.”

“You know the mind is very powerful thing so, if he want to do it he can do it. I think he’s already shown his skills and what he can do in boxing, so if he wants to take it to a different lane, why not?”
