Fiery Jake Paul rant over earning more than every UFC star – including McGregor
Jake Paul has claimed he earns more than every “silly motherf*****” in the UFC combined, including Conor McGregor.
The 24-year old launched a fiery outburst towards former two-weight champion McGregor and UFC president Dana White, continuing his lengthy feud with various people involved with the organisation.
Paul, who has gone from controversial YouTube star to multi-millionaire boxer, recently defeated former UFC champion Tyron Woodley with a stunning knockout as he pocketed around £1.5million.
And after being urged by UFC fighter Jorge Masvidal to meet him in the octagon, Paul insisted he does not need to join the UFC as he already makes more money than them “all combined.”
Speaking on his brother Logan’s podcast, he said: "I make more than every UFC fighter f***ing combined, including Conor.
"Y'all work for f***ing Dana, y'all work for WME, Endeavor, that's who you work for.
"I make more than all of you silly motherf***ers. Why would I go into the UFC? Sign a contract and give away my f***ing rights and s***.

Paul claims to have earned “eight-figures” across his five victories against YouTuber ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA player Nate Robinson, retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren and Woodley.
The Problem Child now also owns his own boxing promotion company under which he and world champion Amanda Serrano fight.
His claim regarding McGregor is a controversial one, with the Irishman having pursed a reported £2.3million following his latest defeat to Dustin Poirier earlier this year.
McGregor also made a gargantuan sum from his 2017 fight against Floyd Mayweather, where he took home at least £20million.
