The UFC is clearly massive enterprise, with near-weekly occasions and large PPV’s month after month. However regardless of how giant the corporate will get, UFC president Dana White is continually requested questions on a man who has by no means even stepped into the Octagon earlier than – Jake Paul.
On the post-fight media scrum following final night time’s Contender Sequence occasion, White was requested about Paul’s proposed boxing match with former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva, which is reportedly scheduled for late October. He’s normally fairly arduous on Paul, however within the case of a battle towards his former middleweight legend he truly appeared considerably impressed:
“I don’t give a sh-t, however, if he’s actually combating Anderson Silva, if he’s actually combating Anderson Silva, if that’s true, it’s about time. He’s bought an actual battle on his palms there, no matter how outdated Anderson is. That’s an actual battle.”
Later within the media scrum although, his actual ideas about Paul got here to the floor once more:
“Cease asking me about Jake Paul, you guys,” White stated. “I don’t give a sh-t what Jake Paul does. I do know you’re keen on this sh-t, however c’mon, this man has nothing to do with my enterprise. He doesn’t battle for me, he’s not even in the identical f—king sport as me.
“I don’t need to discuss him anymore. I don’t care.”
Paul vs. Silva, if it’s actual, is rumored to be happening on October twenty ninth. No doable location has been named as of but.
