The boxing world has been taken over by Logan and Jake Paul in recent months, with the two brothers battling some of the best of all time in the ring, such as Floyd Mayweather \u2013 making serious money in the process. With Jake Paul frequently calling out big names like Conor McGregor to duke it out, it would seem like the younger brother isn\u2019t afraid of anyone. But that\u2019s not exactly the case, according to one UFC star. In a video highlighting multiple fighters\u2019 opinions on the upcoming bout, Colby Covington expressed how he feels Jake isn\u2019t as tough as he claims to be. \u201cI\u2019ve had some guys in my gym, Colby Covington Inc and MMA Masters, that have trained with Jake Paul in Miami. They\u2019ve all kind of said the same information, that they went there, they exposed him, they made him look bad.\u201d According to Colby, the cameras were turned off and no pictures were taken, so the evidence of Paul supposedly being bested doesn\u2019t exist. \u201cAnd they never invite these guys back because Jake \u2018The Snake\u2019 Paul only wants kids that he can beat up and knock out and boost his ego and his confidence,\u201d the UFC fighter blasted. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t want guys that are going to push him in the gym and make him better. Like we\u2019ve said before, he\u2019s not a real fighter. He\u2019s a little Disney star.\u201d As for the fight between Jake and Tyron, Colby is backing the latter. \u201cI think Woodley can do it. I think he can land a knockout punch and get it done,\u201d Covington predicted. It will be very interesting to see how Jake Paul responds to Covington\u2019s claims. Knowing The Problem Child, he\u2019s unlikely to take these statements lying down, so he may have a thing or two to say in the weeks ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UFC star Colby Covington says Jake Paul won\u2019t train with fighters who \u201cmake him look bad\u201d Instagram\/colbycovmma\/JakepaulAs YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul prepares to battle former UFC champion Tyron Woodley, MMA star Colby Covington has given his prediction on the bout while exposing some secrets about The Problem Child.
