Nick Kyrgios reacted to popular YouTuber Jake Paul sneaking into Noche UFC 306 despite being banned from all the events by the company's president Dana White. The event was held at the Sphere in Paradise, Nevada, part of the Las Vegas Valley, and Paul donned an elaborate disguise to watch his friend Sean O'Malley take on Merab Dvalishvili.

The American YouTuber has an ongoing feud with White and has accused the UFC CEO and other higher-ups of claiming a huge chunk of the revenue. In contrast, the fighters weren't given the apt perks, such as medical benefits, job security, and permission to compete in other MMA promotions.

Sean O'Malley, who competes in the Bantamweight division and is a friend of Jake Paul, took on Merab Dvalishvili at Noche UFC 306. O'Malley is also Paul's partner through the YouTuber's deodorant company 'W'.

Paul took to Instagram to post a video documenting how he snuck into the Sphere. He put on a fake wig and beard to make his face unrecognizable. He also wore huge sunglasses and a long-sleeved shirt to hide his tattoos.

Nick Kyrgios was delighted by Jake Paul's adventure and took to Instagram to react to it. He reshared Paul's reel on his story to write how the YouTuber was always up to 'no good' and called his escapade 'epic'.

"@jakepaul always up to no good! This is epic haha," Kyrgios wrote.
