Jake Paul shook up the world in 2021 with his thunderous knockout victory over former UFC champion Tyron Woodley in the boxing ring. The YouTuber turned boxer has since then amplified his attack against the promotion and UFC’s president Dana White. Taking charge of the issue of fighter pay, he continued his attacks and even released a diss track targeting Conor McGregor, Jorge Masvidal, Nate Diaz, and more people.

Jake Paul’s diss track lambasted the MMA promotion for poorly treating its fighters. He organized elaborate skits and dished out a number of cleverly drafted insults to address the issue. He even attacked UFC Star Conor McGregor for having fake teeth with a line at 2:35 seconds, calling them ‘ugly a** veneers’. This curiously redirected the attention of fans on McGregor’s teeth, as MMA fighters are known to break them either during training or during fights.
