Jake Paul, one of the most talked about names in boxing, has his eyes set on Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz, the UFC’s two biggest cash cows presently. The undefeated boxer analyzed who could give him a tougher fight between these two 155 lbs & 170 lbs UFC fighters.

Ahead of his MSG headliner against 12-1 boxer Hasim Rahman Jr., The Problem Child was busy doing media. In an interview with Morning Kombat’s Luke Thomas, the Ohio-born talked about his potential future opponents – Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz.

When asked who would give him a tougher time inside the boxing ring between McGregor and Diaz, Paul said, “I think Conor, just because of his experience in the ring with Floyd. He’s definitely a better striker. Nate gets hit a lot more.”

Earlier in the interview, on the potential of facing McGregor inside the ring, Paul believed, “I think it’s very possible.” However, he questioned McGregor’s motivation and called him ‘inactive’ while he offered, “I’m the one who is fighting. I’m the one who is building my brand.”

Paul couldn’t come up with any specific dates for the fight. However, he believes the bout is inevitable.

Jake Paul addressed Nate Diaz for posting his clip on Twitter

The Problem Child talked about controversial UFC superstar Nathan Diaz acknowledging a fight with him as the 209-representative put out a tweet that had Paul knocking out Tyron Woodley.

When asked what he thinks of Nate Diaz’s tweet, Paul said, “He just knows that I’m the money fight – where he’s gonna make the most amount of money. A lot of these guys knows that. So, they wanna be let out of their contracts so they can get the payday.”

However, Diaz didn’t name-drop Paul in his tweet. Besides, he has to do his business with the UFC first. The younger Diaz brother has one fight left on his current contract with the promotion. Since the promotion wants to sign a new contract, he’s having a tough time finding his last bout.

Anyhow, Paul has a big test in front of him on August 6 as he, first time in his boxing career, will compete against a professional boxer with a serious amateur background.
