“Dana White Should Hook You Up With Colby Covington”- Savage MMA Fans React to Jake Paul’s Conor McGregor UFC Request

Jake Paul loves making a statement. Trash talking and media notoriety do not come easily to most, but ‘The Problem Child’ is always equipped and ready to let loose when it comes to the media. As we all know, Jake Paul has been making various statements about the UFC, its fighters, and the UFC president Dana White. 

Fighter pay has always been in contention in the promotion—a topic of high debate, personalities all around chime in every once in a while. Jake Paul manages to give his two cents as well when it comes to the fighter pay. 

In a recent Tweet, Jake Paul stated that he wants to fight Conor McGregor in a one-fight UFC deal. And if he were to win, Dana White would have to adhere to his deal to pay fighters more. 

Paul Tweeted, “Dana – Since you like me now, how about a 1 fight UFC deal to fight Conor.”

“If I win, you agree to my UFC fighter pay and healthcare proposal.”

“If I lose I donate my entire purse to all UFC fighters who make less than $50K a fight and never mention UFC again Deal?”

With people always having something to say to Paul, one Twitter user absolutely savaged Paul in a reply Tweet. 

“What smaller, older guy do you want next, pacman [Manny Pacquiao]? If you wanna make an impact, @danawhite should hook you up with @ColbyCovMMA [Colby Covington] I would pay to watch that,” said Tweeter user @Tomas__Quintana.

Fan reactions to Jake Paul Tweeting to Dana White

A personality like Paul is always very likely to attract media attention and over-the-top noise. Given his track record and background, his trash talk and call-outs never fail to gather viewers’ criticism and other comments. 

After all, Jake Paul seems to have taken after Conor McGregor himself, who he has called out multiple times. The YouTube star who is now a full-time boxer garners massive hate for his choice of opponents and self-proclamation of success in the boxing world. 

His last fight was against former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley, released after four straight losses. His other opponents include UFC fighter Ben Askren and NBA star Nate Robinson, all of whom do not possess adequate boxing skills. 

With that being said, fans began pouring in their views about it.

A beacon of Hope for UFC fighter pay? 

Jake Paul has previously also expressed his contempt against Dana White regarding UFC fighter pay and healthcare. He voiced his opinion on how fighters placing their lives on the line should be treated better financially. 

Despite gaining his praise for those comments from the fight game, fans remain skeptical about the 25-year-old’s comments, looking at it as just another way of grabbing Dana White‘s attention for a super fight. 

The latest tweet about fighter pay coupled with a money fight is putting fans on a higher skepticism platform than they started with.
