Jake Paul and Dana White’s war of words is becoming one of the most followed crossover events in combat sports. The two have traded jabs back and forth during interviews and on their social media handles. UFC president Dana White is a no-nonsense type of guy and he does not like anything that Jake Paul stands for.

In his latest rant against the UFC boss, ‘The Problem Child’ first thanks Dana White and then goes on to berate him. All this went down during the pre-fight press conference for the Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury fight. “Dana, again, thank you, wherever you are. Thank you for promoting my fights.”

“You literally tee up every single fight for me perfectly. You place bets against me I prove you wrong. You try to bring in coaches for my opponents so that they can beat me. You’re letting Tommy Fury train at the UFC performance institute. Give it up guy, like, give it up. ‘Fight a real boxer, when is he going to fight a guy his own age,’ whatever Dana White is constantly f**king saying, you know, I’m doing it.”

“And he’s mad that I’m doing it because he’s a control freak and when he doesn’t have his fingers dipped into someone’s business, he doesn’t want to see them succeed and he tries to bring them down but he’s not smart enough to realize that every single time he talks about me, it just makes my shit go up.” Paul said.
