Even though he\u2019s preparing to fight Anderson Silva at the end of October, Jake Paul hasn\u2019t been shy in letting people know that he\u2019s got plans for once he\u2019s done with the MMA legend. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has teased a move into the world of Mixed Martial Arts himself, but still wants to fight top-name boxers too. And that includes Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather, even though the pair are vastly different when it comes to weight classes. Jake has urged Floyd to fight him a few times now, but has ramped things up, seeing as the undefeated boxing legend is fighting Deji in November. Though, Jake doesn\u2019t just want it to be an exhibition. Jake Paul wants Floyd Mayweather to risk boxing record against him \u2018The Problem Child\u2019 spoke to MMA Fighting about the possibility of fighting \u2018Money\u2019 at some point, and he\u2019s still eager for it to happen \u2013 but he wants it to be high stakes. \u201cI think he would [fight me] if it was an exhibition for sure,\u201d Paul told the combat sports website. \u201cThe thing is I want it to be a real pro bout and take his undefeated record, which I don\u2019t think he\u2019ll risk.\u201d Jake believes that having it as a pro bout would make things \u201cthree times as big\u201d compared to an exhibition. \u201cI definitely think there\u2019s a fight for us in the future,\u201d Paul added. \u201cWhether it\u2019s an exhibition or not, we\u2019ll figure that part out.\u201d To this point, Floyd hasn\u2019t risked his 50-0 record since fighting Conor McGregor back in 2017, instead focusing on exhibition fights against celebrities and other athletes. It would certainly still be a lucrative fight for the pair of them if they went the exhibition route, but it wouldn\u2019t be as high stakes as it could be. So, we\u2019ll just have to wait and see what happens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jake Paul wants Floyd Mayweather fight but on one major condition YouTube: Jake Paul\/Fight Hub TVJake Paul is still eager to fight Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather but doesn\u2019t believe the boxing icon will risk his 50-0 undefeated record against the social media phenomenon.
