As the biggest fight of his career against Anderson Silva edges closer, Jake Paul has made a bold claim, insisting that Dana White and the UFC have been desperately trying to sabotage the boxing match.
'The Problem Child' has been in an ongoing feud with the MMA company and its president due to multiple issues. Although he has shown an interest in facing multiple contenders from the UFC, it seems like his main goal is to battle the promotion to give fighters more rights, healthcare, and better pay going forward.
During a sit-down with Ariel Helwani ahead of his bout tomorrow night, Jake Paul stated that Dana White and the UFC are attempting to weaken the growth of his fight against Anderson Silva by sending him "cease and desist letters".
"It's the shark at the top who, if he doesn't like you, he'll do anything he can to try and stop you... This guy Dana and the UFC were sending me cease and desist letters this whole entire week to take down YouTube videos where we had highlights of Anderson in the UFC in the video, which is all over the internet, right? But their lawyers send us a cease and desist. He's doing anything he can to try and mess us up on this fight week and it's clear that he has some sort of vendetta against me and maybe you [Anderson Silva] as well."
Dana White has already ordered the entire MMA press to avoid mentioning Jake Paul to him during post-fight press conferences as he has become fed up with the popular influencer.
Check out what the 25-year-old had to say about his problem with the UFC president in the video below.
A look back at Jake Paul's "diss track" on Dana White
The feud that has been ongoing for over a year continues to rage on, but it was the beginning of 2022 which saw Jake Paul release a music video dedicated to exposing the popular MMA figure.
Fresh off his knockout win over Tyron Woodley, the social media star was angling for fighters in the UFC to be treated better and decided to make it even more public by uploading a "diss track" to his millions of subscribers.
Not only did the video do good views, he was even able to get multiple cameos in the clip with former UFC women's featherweight champion Cris Cyborg and one-fight UFC vet Antonio McKee making appearances.
