UFC President Dana White made it clear that he did not care about working with Jake Paul. However, according to Paul, that decision may not be a final decision.
Jake Paul is no stranger to great ambitions. His main goal when coming to Boxing is the gloves with Conor McGregor, and he seems to be ready to overcome many famous boxers of UFC and McGregor's colleagues to achieve that.
However, to be able to match the glove McGregorJake Paul will need to be allowed by Dana White's permission and this is not easy.
In an interview with Chael Sonnen, Paul implies that there were discussions about cooperation with UFC.
“Listen, there are conversations that are going on,” Paul said. “I believe that Kamaru's manager (Usman) talked to Dana and I thought it was all I could say. A hundred percent. I want all the matches. Daniel Cormier is another possibility.”
A hidden obstacle that Paul has solved is that he is not bound when working with Triller. This is important because although Dana White sometimes praised, sometimes criticizing Jake Paul, he extremely hated Triller company.
“I am a freelance fighter,” Paul said. “Listening, I think it is a way to do it with all the boxers. It is bad to see young boxers, young UFC champions bound into the contracts they are owned by the promotion.
UFC fighters are owned by Dana White and they are not paid worthy, they don't have the matches they want. ”
