Dana White didn’t hold back when asked about surging YouTuber-turned-professional boxer Jake Paul
UFC head honcho Dana White tore into ‘The Problem Child’ Jake Paul. The YouTuber-turned-pro boxer recently defeated Tyron Woodley in the rematch by means of a brutal knockout in the sixth round.
Following his win over Woodley, Paul called out White, boasting about the fact that he had knocked a former UFC champion out cold. He also made a vow to humiliate ‘UFC gangsters’ Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz.
Besides this, Paul also called White a regular cocaine user.
In a recent interview with legendary boxing trainer Teddy Atlas, White hit out at Paul and challenged him to cocaine test him for the next years. White also added that he would allow a cocaine test on himself if Paul allowed him to randomly steroid test him.
Here is what White had to say:
“I got a challenge for Jake Paul. This guy keeps saying that I’m a cokehead. He can randomly cocaine test me for the next 10 years if I can randomly steroid test him for the next two.” [via BJPENN.com]
Dana White was also particular about not letting Nate Diaz or Jorge Masvidal box Jake Paul, whilst under UFC contract.
Calling Paul a goofball, White urged the YouTube star to fight a boxer:
“No (scenario I’d let Diaz or Masvidal box Paul while under UFC contract). You notice how he wants to fight f*cking everybody that’s not in his weight class, guys that are older and all this bullsh*t. Go fight a boxer. Go hump somebody else’s leg, you goofball.” [via BJPENN.com]
