Dana White bites back at Jake Paul\u2019s callout of UFC champ YouTube: Impaulsive\/TNT SportsUFC boss Dana White has given his take on Jake Paul\u2019s recent call out of Light Heavyweight champion Alex \u2018Poatan\u2019 Pereira following his win over Mike Perry. Since getting into the world of boxing, Jake Paul has tested himself against some pretty big names in the fight game. The majority of those have been MMA fighters \u2013 many who have left the UFC \u2013 rather than lifelong boxers, however. As a result, the YouTuber-turned-boxer has got himself on the radar of UFC boss Dana White. The pair have had some pretty strong verbal, and digital, jabs so far, with Jake constantly asking White to bump up fighter pay and provide more benefits. In the midst of that, Jake has also gone after some fighters who are still active in the UFC. That includes Conor McGregor and, most recently, Alex \u2018Poatan\u2019 Pereira. Now, Dana has hit back at Jake and the call out of his Light Heavyweight champion. \u201cThe media just eats up all of his bulls*it,\u201d the UFC boss told TNT Sports, debunking claims that he told Mike Perry he\u2019d get back in the UFC if he\u2019d won. \u201cI didn\u2019t even know Jake was fighting. I was on vacation in Italy. I stopped paying attention to Jake Paul when he lost to [Tommy] Fury. When he fought somebody that was his age and actually boxed, he lost. And I\u2019m not s*itting on the kid. I don\u2019t even think about him anymore, it doesn\u2019t even cross my mind.\u201d Timestamp of 5:38 White added that he \u201chas no beef\u201d with Jake these days but repeated that its \u201call bull*hit\u201d when it comes to his fights and how he goes about things. Other pundits have pointed out that Dana is reluctant to let active UFC fighters step away from the Octagon and focus on boxing, so Jake will have to rethink his plans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
