Dana White claims former boxing champion Claressa Shields could KO Jake Paul Instagram: Jake Paul \/ Wikimedia CommonsUFC President Dana White claims former boxing champion and Olympian Claressa Shields could knock out Jake Paul after he roasted her for losing her first mixed-martial-arts bout. Jake Paul has been a wanted man ever since he beat former UFC superstars Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley. Everyone from Jorge Masvidal to Floyd Mayweather has been linked to a potential fight against him. Claressa Shields, who is a three-time division world champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist in boxing, also issued a challenge. She claimed she\u2019d \u201cwhoop his ass\u201d and was even willing to spar against him. Jake wasn\u2019t impressed with her comments. However, he waited until she had her first MMA loss to roast her. It didn\u2019t sit well with Dana White, though. Not only did he back her, but he also claimed she\u2019d knock him out. Jake Paul roasts Claressa Shields after MMA loss Jake roasted Shields on social media after she lost to Abigail Montes at PFL 10 via split decision. \u201cThe truth hurts, but it\u2019s necessary. Claressa Shields is a loser. In MMA, and even more so with her prima donna attitude,\u201d he wrote. \u201cThe fake always get exposed. Losses come when anger and hate take over. Just ask Rousey and McGregor. She spent more time berating Jake Paul than learning Jiu-Jitsu. She\u2019s never been a big draw, and unfortunately for her, she never will be.\u201d I love karma @Claressashields, Congrats Abigail Montes! Someone get her a Twitter! pic.twitter.com\/gRTqKLZt8A \u2014 Jake Paul (@jakepaul) October 28, 2021 Claressa Shields claps back on social media Shields clapped back on Twitter shortly after. \u201cThis is funny. You come running when I lose a split decision in a whole new world but never even once said congrats on all you\u2019ve done and aspire to do,\u201d she said. \u201cTwo things that remain, Jake,\u201d she added. \u201cI still fight better than you, and you won\u2019t accomplish 10% of what I have in boxing or life. Unlike Jake, I fought a real MMA fighter. He has yet to face a real boxer in boxing.\u201d Dana White claims Shields will KO Jake In an interview with MMA Fighting, Dana White was asked to weigh in on the situation. He said Shields is a \u201cwinner\u201d compared to a \u201cgoofball\u201d like Jake and insisted that she\u2019d knock him out in a heartbeat if they met. \u201cHe better be careful. She might knock him out,\u201d he said. \u201cClaressa Shields is nothing but a winner who actually fought real people in her weight class in her own age in her own sport. Then goes over to MMA and tries to win a world title. That\u2019s not a loser. That\u2019s a winner, okay? \u201cWhen are you gonna start fighting somebody your own f*cking age, your own weight, that actually fights in your own f*cking sport that you\u2019re claiming you\u2019re in? Shut the f*ck up, you goofball. \u201cFor you to call Claressa Shields a loser is f*cking unbelievable.\u201d Jake Paul thanks Dana White for promoting him The drama didn\u2019t end there, though. Jake responded to White\u2019s comments, saying, \u201cDana White loves promoting my fights for free. Thank you. Maybe this is why Dana loves Conor McGregor so much. Because he always loses.\u201d Read More: Is Jake Paul boxing Tommy Fury? – He also pointed out that he is fighting someone his own age and within the same code by taking on Tommy Fury in December 2021. \u201cWe\u2019re basically the same age, same height, same reach, and the same weight!\u201d Dana White loves promoting my fights for free.. thank you @danawhite pic.twitter.com\/OGKBhduiMK \u2014 Jake Paul (@jakepaul) October 30, 2021 The feud between Jake and White started back in January 2021 when the UFC President dubbed him a \u201cgimmick boxer.\u201d The two have been butting heads ever since. Jake told White to pay his fighters more money, called him a \u201cbald bum,\u201d and even threatened to \u201cknock him out.\u201d Meanwhile, White threatened legal action, claimed he\u2019d never work with Jake, and told him to \u201cget in line\u201d if he wants to knock him out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
