When it comes to the fallout from his fights, Jake Paul is no stranger to people claiming that the result was never in doubt. Ever since he first fought Ben Askren back in March 2021, there have been plenty of claims that his fights are \u201cfixed.\u201d The YouTuber-turned-boxer has constantly dismissed those claims, and he\u2019s even had the support of other fighters, as well as the likes of Joe Rogan. Though, following his win over Anderson \u2018The Spider\u2019 Silva, Jake was accused of \u2018fixing\u2019 his fights once again by Paddy \u2018The Baddy\u2019 Pimblett. In response to the UFC contender\u2019s claim, Jake offered him $1 million for a boxing sparring session during his training camp in Puerto Rico. The Scouser countered that by asking him to fly to Las Vegas to make it happen by December 5. Jake Paul offers Paddy Pimblett fight date for 2023 Well, Jake has since countered that counter with a date for the two to square off, and it includes sitting down for a post-fight podcast as well after a few rounds of work. \u201cFella my team told me you have been trying to book me for your podcast, January 5th,\u201d Jake tweeted on November 30. \u201cSo I\u2019m sending you a jet to bring you to Puerto Rico. Both of our teams will film. We spar, 5 rounds and then we can do your podcast. By then you will be back to your normal weight. No excuses, he added, dropping a little handshake emoji on the end to ask if Pimblett accepted his offer. Pimblett has already \u2018agreed\u2019 to spar Jake, but he\u2019d rather it happen before January, especially as he\u2019s almost in fighting shape as it stands. Fans will be hoping that he stays interested enough to have things go down in the new year, but who knows. Jake isn\u2019t exactly well-loved with higher-ups in the UFC either.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jake Paul sets fight date for $1 million clash with UFC\u2019s Paddy Pimblett YouTube: Jake PaulJake Paul has set a date for his proposed sparring session with UFC\u2019s Paddy \u2018The Baddy\u2019 Pimblett, and it\u2019s actually not too far away.
