Jake Paul called out by ex-UFC fighter for allegedly pulling out of fight YouTube: Jake PaulJake Paul has been put on blast by former UFC fighter \u2018Platinum\u2019 Mike Perry as Perry claims Jake \u201cchanged his mind\u201d on a fight despite a contract being signed. There have been plenty of rumors and speculation about Jake Paul\u2019s next opponent, especially as he looks to one-up his recent win over MMA legend Anderson \u2018The Spider\u2019 Silva. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has been linked with a fight against longtime rival Tommy Fury, while former UFC stars like Donald \u2018Cowboy\u2019 Cerrone have also thrown their hat in the ring to be his next opponent. Jake also claimed that he\u2019d sent out fight contracts to three unnamed fighters, as he looks to move on from fighting \u201cold dudes\u201d and finally shut down that longstanding criticism that he\u2019s not faced a \u2018real\u2019 boxer. Jake Paul apparently \u201cchanged his mind\u201d on Mike Perry fight Well, it appears one of those contracts has finally surfaced as former UFC fighter \u2018Platinum\u2019 Mike Perry put Jake in the spotlight with a small leak. The controversial former welterweight contender claimed that he\u2019d signed a contract to fight Jake on February 18, but the \u2018Problem Child\u2019 simply \u201cchanged his mind\u201d about it happening. After that call-out, Perry tweeted screenshots of the contract signed on his half for an eight-round contest. \u201cWYA (Where you at) Jake Paul,\u201d he said. Some fans quickly stated that Perry would be a \u201charder fight\u201d for Jake than some of the other names he\u2019s been linked with, but others questioned why there was no signature from Jake on the contract. Though, he wouldn\u2019t have to sign it, given this is likely only a contract to get Perry\u2019s intent for a bout on record. The reference to February 18 appears to confirm that previous leak from Jake\u2019s coach about the date of his next fight, but he doesn\u2019t have an opponent yet. That\u2019ll need to change in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
