Jake Paul claims Dana White is \u201cducking\u201d his Conor McGregor UFC fight offer Instagram: Jake Paul\/Conor McGregorJake Paul claims that Dana White is \u201cducking\u201d his offer to take on Conor McGregor and that he is completely serious about fighting the Irish superstar. Since stepping into the fight game, Jake Paul has been making waves in the world of boxing. Though, he\u2019s also been causing a bit of chaos on the Mixed Martial Arts side of things as well. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has gone after UFC President Dana White over fighter pay and healthcare, tried to convince Jorge Masvidal to step into the boxing ring, and has repeatedly taken shots at Conor McGregor about his recent losses. Jake has also offered to fight McGregor on numerous occasions as well, both in the Octagon and the boxing ring \u2013 with his most recent offer having the added bonus of him dropping his beef with the UFC once and for all. Well, according to Jake, the UFC and Dana have been ducking him on that proposal despite doing a few media appearances in that time. The 25-year-old was quizzed by TMZ Sports about whether or not he\u2019d heard any rumblings, and he confirmed he hadn\u2019t. \u201cNot as of yet, you know he keeps on going on interviews, he was on my brother\u2019s podcast and he seems to be ducking the whole entire thing,\u201d Jake said. One bone of contention that White has had about the fight is that Jake and Conor are in vastly different weight classes. Though, Jake believes that\u2019s not really a hurdle. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t realize that Conor and I weigh the exact same right now, Conor is walking around at 190 lbs and I\u2019m walking around at 190 lbs.\u201d Even though McGregor is one of the UFC\u2019s greatest attractions, Jake is convinced that he\u2019d only need six months\u2019 worth of training to beat him, as he believes the Irishman is \u201cdeclining.\u201d The social media star has already confirmed that he\u2019ll be back in action come August, and while he isn\u2019t sure if that\u2019ll be against McGregor, he does an ideal opponent in mind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
