Jake Paul has fought MMA fighters like Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley, and Anderson Silva and defeated them in boxing matches in the past. He has been on the receiving end of criticism for choosing fighters from MMA backgrounds and then beating them in boxing. Earlier, UFC president Dana White took a dig at the internet personality while speaking on the Jim Rome Show.
“So as soon as he loses, he goes back to a 40-year-old MMA fighter who’s smaller than him, not his weight...Listen, it’s just one of those fights. I know that some people are into this. It’s just not what I’m into. It’s not my thing." [The Jim Rome Show]
