A bout against Amanda Nunes and Jake Paul doesn’t seem like something in the realm of possibility, however, it showcases Dana White’s mindset on the matter. He’s keen that his biggest star in Conor McGregor remains within the UFC’s well-oiled machine. However, it’s hard to say if things will take a turn considering the money that’s on the table.

There’s no doubt Jake Paul is a certified draw in combat sports and his recent call-outs of MMA stars will likely lead to a bout with one of them. The Brazilian star in Amanda Nunes has left no doubt that she wants to be a front runner in that conversation.
