Jake Paul’s fights are ‘fixed’ and ‘everyone knows it’ fumes UFC star

UFC star Terrance McKinney hit out at YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul, claiming that the American star's fights are 'fixed'. Paul has been the driving force behind the new-found YouTube boxing scene.

Since making his professional debut in 2020, Paul has won all six of his pro fights in the boxing ring, with his latest coming against UFC stalwart Anderson Silva in October. One man who is less than convinced though is McKinney.

In an explosive interview, the 28-year-old American fighter did not hold back in making a huge accusation against the YouTube star, in claiming his fights are rigged.

McKinney told Best Sports Betting Canada : "Jake Paul doesn't really do strong PPV buys, he's all talk, maybe on YouTube he's famous, but everyone knows his fights are kind of fixed, so the hype is kind of dying down.

"He needs to fight someone his own age if he wants to bring attention to the sport of boxing. He's picking the older guys who are retired. I want to see him fight someone his age and his size and then I think he can bring excitement to the boxing scene."

Paul was not the only fighter McKinney took aim at though, with the 28-year-old also having a few choice words for fellow UFC star Paddy Pimblett. The Liverpudlian has also claimed Paul's bouts are in fact fixed, leading to the YouTuber offering him the chance to spar with a $1 million prize on the line.

With both Pimblett and Paul embroiled in a slagging match, McKinney believes that it would in fact be the YouTuber who would prevail if the pair faced off. He went on: "I think Paul has a better defence than Pimblett, honestly.

"They need to make that happen, I'm down to watch. Three rounds, I'm going to have to go with Jake Paul. He's too big, he's got a better defence and honestly a cleaner boxer all round.”

In the octagon, McKinney also has his eyes on a fight with Pimblett, and demanded he wants to take on the Englishman on away soil by fighting him at his beloved Anfield. "If the fight happens of course I can knock Paddy Pimblett out," he revealed.

"Anyone can knock him out, like Matt Frevola or Grant Dawson, anyone in the top 25 would honestly crush him. But send me to Liverpool in March for Terrance 'T-Wrecks' McKinney vs Paddy 'The Baddy'. I don't care if the fans will boo me, I'm just going to drink it in.

“I want to come to Liverpool, to Anfield, the home of Paddy's soccer team. I want every seat in that stadium filled with scousers. I will walk into the lion's den and knock him out and remind Liverpool that Terrance McKinney rode into town and dethroned their boy. It will serve as a warning to the rest of the division.”
