Along the same lines, the 25-year-old boxer recently targeted the former UFC champion during a press conference. Jake Paul joined famous boxing promoter Eddie Hearn at the pre-fight promotion of Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano.

He was out there to promote the boxing bout between the undisputed lightweight champion Katie Taylor and the unified featherweight world champion Amanda Serrano. He used Taylor’s Irish identity to take a jibe at fellow Irishman Conor McGregor.

While answering a question from the stage, Jake Paul said, “Look I don’t, I don’t have anything to say about that. What I do have to say for the Irish is, I feel bad for y’all because this is the start of Katie Taylor’s losing streak just like Conor McGregor. This is the start of her losing streak just like Conor McGregor.”
