Jake Paul recently joined the PFL and will now likely participate in MMA as well as in boxing. While Anthony Pettis expressed his willingness to be Paul’s debut MMA fight, KSI after his latest victory called ‘The Problem Child’ out. However, before fans could digest the mentioned options for Jake Paul, the unbelievable news of Paul facing UFC fighter Francis Ngannou broke out and caused chaos.

Jokingly, an account on Twitter claimed that Paul offered Ngannou a two-fight contract. “Jake Paul has offered a 2-fight contract to Francis Ngannou. 1st fight is boxing. 2nd fight is 6 months later, and it will be MMA. Wow!” they said. Although the account acknowledged that they were only joking, several fans took to Twitter and reacted to it.

While some contemplated a “Mortal Kombat Style” fight between Ngannou and ‘The Problem Child’, others joked about the impossibility and the absurdity of this event concerning the two athletes. In a video shared by XCellantMMA Clips, Jake Paul jokingly called Ngannou an “easy matchup” for him. In the video, Ngannou can be seen confronting Paul and asking him if he wouldn’t fight him. To which, Paul replied, “No, Francis. C’mon buddy.”
