Joe Rogan explains why Jake Paul might never box active UFC fighters Spotify: Joe Rogan\/Instagram: Jake PaulJoe Rogan isn\u2019t sure if Jake Paul will ever step into the ring with a current UFC fighter as he doubts Dana White would ever let it happen. When Jake Paul made his first steps into the boxing world, he was focusing on settling beefs with other YouTubers and social media stars. However, as he\u2019s racked up wins, that\u2019s changed. In his last three fights, Jake has defeated two former UFC fighters \u2013 Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley \u2013 and has gotten into a war of words with Dana White, Conor McGregor, and others. That\u2019s led to plenty of speculation about him potentially fighting current UFC fighters, but in the boxing ring, not the Octagon. However, despite all the interest, Joe Rogan believes that might never happen. The UFC commentator was chatting it up with Snoop Dogg on his Joe Rogan Experience podcast when Snoop asked if Joe had an idea for a UFC fighter that could \u201chandle\u201d Jake Paul in the future. \u201cI don\u2019t know. For them to get free from a UFC contract that they currently have, I don\u2019t think Dana White is going to do that,\u201d the podcaster and TV host responded. \u201cI don\u2019t know. Maybe if they thought they could make a lot of money and there was someone who was a current UFC fighter, and they could arrange it, maybe they could make some sort of joint promotion. But, I just don\u2019t see the UFC doing that.\u201d Joe did praise the YouTuber for what he\u2019s been able to do in the boxing world, though. \u201cThey don\u2019t have to (fight a UFC fighter),\u201d he added. \u201cJake Paul is killing it in boxing, it\u2019s brilliant s**t.\u201d While most of the fight challenges have come from Jake\u2019s side, there are some UFC fighters who have they\u2019ll take on the YouTube star. Highly-ranked middleweight Derek Brunson teased taking Jake on as a \u201ctune-up\u201d bout, but who knows if anything will ever happen between the two parties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
