In an interview with The MacLife, Paul has opened some of his surreal views on Abdelaziz. While talking about the recent back and forth between Abdelaziz and boxing great Canelo Alvarez, Paul took shots at the Nurmagomedov’s manager. However, he also sided with him on the point that, according to him, Canelo is ducking fights.
He said, “I think Kamaru Usman’s manager is, is right in the sense, you know, even though he’s a rat. We all know he’s a little sc*mbag, criminal, liar, got kicked out of a country. So I think his, his manager, is a piece of sh*t.”

He added that, despite all of this, he believes Abdelaziz is right in calling out Canelo for ducking fights. With the not-so-subtle shots at Abdelaziz, he took a leaf out of Conor McGregor’s book.
Conor McGregor thrashing Abdelaziz
‘The Notorious’ is a legend in the UFC and has fought many prominent fighters in his career. Similarly, a few days before fighting another legend of UFC, Khabib Nurmagomedov, McGregor thrashed Abdelaziz at a press conference who was managing Khabib then.
The Irish mixed martial artist opened up his view on Abdelaziz. Meanwhile, he mocked both Khabib Nurmagomedov and his manager in the press conference.
How is Jake Paul related to Ali Abdelaziz?
A few months back, there was a rattle going on between the UFC champion, Kamaru Usman, and The Problem Child.
Usman once called out Jake Paul indirectly for a fight in an interview with TMZ Sports.
He said, “Maybe I’ll go pull out these guys you know, guys who think they could fight, they could box one of these internet guys, and beat the sh*t out of them.”
It was a general statement from ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ which indicated the YouTubers who took part in the professional match.
Subsequently, Paul accepted the challenge from Usman, for which he tweeted on his account.
Challenge accepted.@USMAN84kg if your boss Dana gives you permission to box me and make more money than you ever have, let me know and we can lace them up. I promise it will be your biggest pay day.
