BJ Flores is the coach for Jake Paul and he wanted no part of Amanda Nunes from Dana White
Dana White became a little irritated with Jake Paul calling out one of his top stars in Conor McGregor.
Paul, who defeated Nate Robinson via a knockout recently, was quick to call out McGregor and Bellator star Dillon Danis.
He even attacked Danis with several water balloons recently and wants to fight an MMA star in a boxing ring.
White claimed that he would offer Amanda Nunes to fight Paul. Nunes is one of the greatest female MMA athletes of all-time and she too was keen on getting into the action.
She holds two UFC belts and is incredible in the Octagon. However, Paul seems set to fight some of the other top stars.
His coach, BJ Flores was on the Schmozone podcast and was having none of this Nunes fight from White:
“I would invite Dana to come to the gym and watch Jake work out or Dana can get in there himself himself and see what Jake is working with and then he can come back and forget about that Amanda Nunes s***.”
The Schmo, who was co-hosting the show alongside Helen Yee, brought up all the accolades that Nunes had won over the years.
Flores claimed all this was great but this wasn’t the right comparison as Paul wanted to face someone else:
“We are talking apples and oranges here. Dana, you are welcome to come to the gym anytime, and don’t even bring up the Amanda Nunes s***.”
It is to be seen what happens next in this saga. Paul looked great in the win over Robinson and is interested in another big fight. Nate Diaz has also called out the YouTube sensation and things could go on from there.
Paul’s move has brought a lot of “Kardashian” like interest into the MMA world, as The Schmo said, and he could still end up fighting someone.
However, Flores was quick to highlight that Paul would only be fighting in a boxing match and not an MMA battle.
He claimed that Paul wasn’t at championship level boxing yet, but he wasn’t playing games in the ring either.
