Jake Paul is lashing out at everyone at the moment because he was meant to fight Tommy Fury on August 6th at Madison Square Garden, but Fury was denied a visa to get into the USA (although it doesn’t sound like he was training too hard for the fight anyway) and then his replacement Haism Rahman Jr might not end up fighting him either because he’s demanding too much money.

Obviously, Jake Paul’s response to this is to go on the warpath against both men and also target Conor McGregor for some reason. Paul has been trying to get McGregor to fight him for years now and decided to turn it up a notch by saying that it made sense for them to get in the ring because they’re both businessmen and it would make a lot of money.
Conor didn’t really mince his words by saying what he thought of this idea:
😂 you’ve 2 fights and done 70k buys.

You are a flop, kid. A nobody.

Jake Paul wasn’t going to stop there though and decided to really come at Conor McGregor, claiming that he spent more time cheating on his wife than he did fighting in the Octagon these day. He also listed all his recent achievements and rinsed Conor in a bunch of other ways too in what can only be described as a pretty awesome promo video:
The facts are the facts. Conor should have learned from his boss Dana White that I’m not the one to play with it. Dana been hiding from me since last year. pic.twitter.com/y9wbMhmWIs

Oooof. That is an absolute domination from Jake Paul isn’t it? The kind of trash talk that Conor McGregor himself would have been proud of about eight years ago. I gotta say Jake Paul is kinda winning me over with that? Absolute mastercraft from the guy.
In fairness, you can’t really blame Paul for pursuing this tactic either because the fight would make a hell of a lot of money ,but I think Conor knows if he accepts it then his MMA career will be over and he still reckons he can get back in there and win another world title. Not sure if anyone else other than him believes that’s possible, but I suppose you gotta respect him for not biting on the easy money. Yet.
Also, although Jake Paul’s diss about cheating on his wife is a good one, it doesn’t really make that much sense. Conor would only spend like 90 minutes tops in the Octagon in a year if he had three championship fights that went the distance, and cheating on your wife for 90 minutes isn’t even that long. Just saying.
However, I think it’s pretty much common knowledge that Conor fucks around and parties all the time – like you saw in that clip in the Jake Paul video – and he’s also been accused of rape in the past but managed to keep all that quiet, so I don’t think he’s gonna like Paul spouting his mouth like this. Hopefully it leads to a fight between the two because who wouldn’t want to see that?
Imagine if Jake Paul won! Unbelievable scenes. Kinda crazy how Conor used to be the plucky underdog that everyone liked and now he just resembles a tired, old deluded and irrelevant man that everyone sorta hates. What a turnaround.
