Michael Bisping revealed that Jake Paul has once again been sending him insulting DMs on Twitter.

Bisping uploaded a video to his YouTube channel, where he talked about the upcoming Paul vs. Nate Diaz boxing bout on August 5. He mentioned that 'The Problem Child' sent him a DM a few months ago, leading to the two going back-and-forth.

Bisping said:

"He's been sending me DMs on Twitter again. I don't know what prompted this one. I don't know, maybe 6 months ago maybe a bit less, he just came at me on Twitter just talking a lot of crap...We're back-and-forth for a bit...I was just kinda laughing at him, he was all upset. The reality is I don't know Jake Paul, I've never met him." [2:02 - 2:23]

The former UFC middleweight champion then brought up that the YouTuber-turned-boxer rekindled the social media feud by sending him a DM earlier today. He mentioned that Paul insulted him and then noted that he made more money in one fight than he did in his entire UFC career, saying:

"He said, 'How does Dana's nuts taste?' I don't know where that came from...So I said, 'How does Tommy's [Fury] uppercut taste?'...And he'd come back,...'I'm 26 years old and that amateur fight that you called it made more, I made more money in that fight than you made in your entire career." [3:23 - 3:46]

Michael Bisping concluded his video by assuring that he doesn't have an issue with Paul and wished him luck.

Michael Bisping doesn't believe Francis Ngannou vs. Jon Jones will happen

Michael Bisping is doubtful that a Francis Ngannou vs. Jon Jones will ever happen, especially after the former UFC heavyweight champion signed with the PFL.

The former middleweight champion uploaded a video to his YouTube channel, where he spoke about Ngannou signing with the PFL and the idea of a cross-promotion between the PFL and UFC. He mentioned that it's unlikely and used Fedor Emelianenko's situation as an example, saying:

"That fight's [Ngannou vs Jon Jones] not gonna happen. It's not gonna be a cross-promotion, that is never ever going to happen. Fedor Emelianenko wanted to do that - his management team from M-1.. they wanted to do a cross-promotion. That's why Fedor never fought in the UFC." [4:25 - 4:44]
