Paddy Pimblett has a condition before accepting Jake Paul sparring request

Replying to Jake Paul's offer to spar him for $1 million, Paddy Pimblett has seemingly accepted. However, the Liverpudlian has some conditions before he steps into the ring with 'The Problem Child'.

Jake Paul has built a career off of beating current and former mixed martial artists. He hopes to add another name to his streak by calling out the scouser. In case the lightweight isn't available, the YouTube star has also been angling for a clash against Nate Diaz following the veteran's release from the UFC.

As he prepares for his fight at UFC 282, Paddy Pimblett took some time to discuss Jake Paul's proposition. He claimed that he would spar the YouTuber-turned-boxer in a heartbeat as long as the money is put into Escrow first:

"[Jake Paul invited me to spar with him in Puerto Rico] knowing full well I'm fighting next week. Lad, I will spar him anytime. Anytime. [Do] you know what I mean? But the thing is, lad, you'd have to get the million put in like an Escrow because I know he'd just bump me. He wouldn't give me a million dollars after I beat him up."

Paddy Pimblett is scheduled to fight in the co-main event at the end-of-year UFC 282 card on December 10. Carrying a 3-0 octagon record, the Liverpudlian will go face-to-face with veteran Jared Gordon, who has much more experience against the higher-level competition in the sport.

Jake Paul recently announced that he is in negotiations for his seventh pro boxing bout, with a number of names being mentioned alongside the 25-year-old. One name that has recurred is Tommy Fury, a man who has been booked to fight the influencer on two occasions previously.

What was Jake Paul's offer to Paddy Pimblett?

Jake Paul lashed out at Paddy Pimblett earlier this week for the UFC star's claims that his win over Anderson Silva was rigged. Subsequently, Paul invited the Liverpool native to a sparring session.

While he would have accepted the offer, 'The Baddy' has a bout scheduled and has his sole focus on the task ahead at UFC 282 next weekend.

In typical Jake Paul fashion, a bet had followed the offer, with the boxer putting up $1 million of his own money if he lost. At the same time, Pimblett would have to join his newly formed United Fighters Association if he was defeated.
