‘Toying Around the Idea of Going Into MMA’: Jake Paul in Talks With PFL and Bellator Over Next Fight

The YouTuber turned boxer, Jake Paul, is perhaps the all-rounder of combat sport. After taking over the sport of boxing with sensational victories, the social media star is eager to step into the octagon. For this, he is in talks with a few big promotions of combat sports like PFL and Bellator MMA. He clarified this in an interview with TMZ Sports.

The 25-year-old is tackling the problem of getting the opponent of his wish. Talking to the host, ‘The Problem Child’ opened up on the speculation of his MMA debut.

The Ohio native said, “Man there’s a long list you know, we’re in talks with a couple of different people. Toying around with the idea of going into MMA for the next fight. So we’re in negotiations and the keys to my manager’s most valuable promotions were talking to a bunch of different people and seeing who makes the most sense.”

However, the undefeated boxer is done with his previous opponents and wanted to take a shot against top-notch fighters of this sport.

What conditions did Jake Paul mention for his next opponents?

After thrashing the former UFC champion Tyron Woodley in the rematch, Jake Paul came under the eyes of boxing critics. As of now, the champion is dead serious about an MMA clash with the UFC megastar Conor McGregor. Notably, ‘The Notorious’ is making a comeback after recovering from the injury.

However, he mentioned a few terms he is looking for in the next opponent if he could not get into a fight against McGregor.

He stated, “There is a long list of people that I want to fight it just depends on who’s ready and who can sell the most amount of pay-per-view because as of yet I haven’t really fought someone with as big of a name as me.”

Interestingly, ‘The Problem Child’ has an incredible fight-promoting aura. So he expects someone who can sell the same number of pay-per-view as he does.

However, regardless of the fact that MMA has different rules and, unlike boxing, the fighter is not bound to one skill, Jake Paul has initiated talks with the MMA promoting companies.

Let’s see what happens next.
