Jake Paul recently signed with the PFL and also now owns a stake in the company's new pay-per-view 'Super Fight' division.

With that, 'The Problem Child' has officially made his entry into the world of MMA and is looking to make his debut. He offered Nate Diaz a two-fight deal as soon as he signed with the PFL. In it, he proposed one boxing fight, followed by an MMA bout six months later.

But one former UFC heavyweight believes Paul should add a third contest to the offer.

In a recent interview with The Schmo on YouTube, former fighter Brendan Schaub revealed why a trilogy series between Jake Paul and Nate Diaz is the move for both fighters:

"Nate Diaz could be there, PFL can afford it. The Nate Diaz is the fight right, 'cause if they boxed first, I feel like Jake would have an advantage there, sorry Nate. And then MMA, Nate would have a huge advantage. So I think it would be good for both of them. Think about the money they'd make, boxing, MMA, especially if Jake wins that, then Nate wins in MMA, there'd have to be a trilogy."

Jake Paul believes Ryan Garcia will knock Gervonta Davis out

Jake Paul has made his pick for the superfight between two of the brightest stars in boxing, Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia.

The pair appear set to settle their differences in a grudge match on April 15 in Las Vegas. Paul, who is good friends with 'KingRy', made his prediction for the fight on social media:

"Ryan Garcia will knock Gervonta Davis out"

Gervonta 'Tank' Davis, the WBA lightweight champion, was not bothered by the comments made by Jake Paul and Ryan Garcia. He called Paul a 'clown' and Garcia a 'baby clown', telling them to get ready because they won't be prepared to handle what he'll bring to the ring on April 15.

The fight has been a long time coming, with 'KingRy' calling 'Tank' out for over a year. The pair have now finally agreed to meet in the ring, with Garcia getting his highly awaited title shot against one of the best fighters in the division.
