Tensions are running high in the lead-up to Jake Paul's boxing clash against Mike Perry. 'The Problem Child' is convinced that UFC CEO Dana White is campaigning for his downfall.
At the final face-off for the fight, Paul shoved the former UFC contender, almost igniting a brawl. In an onstage interview after the face-off, Paul told Ariel Helwani:
"He flew like six feet. But look, Dana White said that he's going to give him [Perry] a UFC contract if he can knock me out. Well, guess what Dana, you can rip up the f*****g contract because I'm going to f**k up Mike Perry. Anyone you send at me, any one of your MMA fighters is getting f****d up. They've been trying to assassinate me, they don't want me in this sport. They hate that I run this sport, but when you try to assassinate a guy like me it only makes me bigger."
