Missed the latest updates of the last 24 hours? Well, worry not as we are back with another edition of Roundup. Today we will start our discussion with Jake Paul, who appears to have a condition for the UFC CEO Dana White to stop challenging the fighter pay issue that is still presenting.

From that, we will move forward toward a piece of news about UFC 309 surrounding Bo Nickal’s initial reaction to the biggest fight of his career against Paul Craig. Lastly, we will conclude the round-up former bantamweight champion, Aljamain Sterling’s confession about facing casual Sean O’Malley after the UFC 306. So without any further ado, let us get started.

Jake Paul has a simple condition for not calling out Dana White

The YouTuber turner Boxer, Jake Paul has been critical when it comes to proper payment for the fighters. Ever since his emergence as a boxer, Jake Paul has always advocated for better treatment as well as better payment for the fighters and this appears to have dragged the ire of the UFC CEO Dana White. It must be noted that the boxer was even banned from the UFC events due to his antics.

Regardless, ‘The Problem Child’ appears to have one condition for the UFC CEO to not call him out ever again. What’s that condition, you may ask? Well, as you can guess, it’s better payment for the fighters, “The only thing I’ve really asked for is for the minimum fighter pay, which is $12,500, to be changed to $50,000. So that if fighters who have to work multiple jobs, if they fight once a year even, they would still be able to live off of that and if it was twice a year, they’d make a hundred grand, which is great,” said Paul on BS podcast.

He further added, “But now, if they’re fighting once a year, it’s $12,500, or twice a year would be $25,000. So that’s been my only ask to Dana to change, and that would only cost the UFC $20 million annually. So it seems like you made three, four billion dollars, why not just give a little bit more to the fighters? It’s only $20 million. That’s been my biggest thing. Make that change and I’ll shut the f*ck up.

Will Dana White increase the pay? Well, that question remains a mystery. Regardless, now that we know about Paul’s condition, let us have a look at Bo Nickal’s reaction to his upcoming fight.

Bo Nickal is unfazed by his fight announcement against Paul Craig

The American middleweight prospect, Bo Nickal is preparing himself for the greatest clash of his career as he is about to face the Scottish giant Paul Craig on November 16 at UFC 309 as announced by Dana White. The 28-year-old fighter is one step closer to the middleweight title and Craig is just another stepping stone for him but is he buzzed by the immediate fight announcement? Well, it is rather the opposite as Nickal is excited to face Craig.

While in conversation on his podcast, ‘ Nickals and Dimes’, he joked about fighting Craig, “Freedom! Yo, I should roll up with my face painted blue, imagine that he would be like, ‘Dude, that’s my thing man’, and I’d just totally clown on him. I’m excited, Paul Craig, big fight at MSG UFC 309, definitely going to be a massive card but yeah, I’m just ready to go, I’m excited and it’s time to go and do my thing.”

If we were to talk about the odds of the fighting then Nickal is heavily favored to take on Paul Craig but it’s quite difficult to predict the outcome of the match considering that Craig is highly unpredictable. Now that we know about UFC 309, let’s take a look back at the past. Why? Well, it seems Aljamain Sterling had to deal with some Sean O’Malley fans after his defeat.

Aljamain Sterling explains about the heated confrontation between Sean O’Malley fans and him

When Merab Dvalishvili clinched the bantamweight title at the hands of Sean O’Malley, he shocked the entire world, Dana White and ‘Suga’s loyal fans. After the fight, both Aljamain Sterling and Dvalishvili had to face a flurry of agitated fans, who were heartbroken after O’Malley’s defeat. According to ‘FunkMaster’, they were hurling abuses at them for the fight. While having a conversation with MMA today, Sterling highlighted the entire scenario.

“When Merab went on the bus after the Friday evening face-off, we saw a whole bunch of people waving him down, so he gets off the bus to go over. Now, his minions Sch*tty and the other skinny twig were on the other side. I see these guys screaming and yelling, coming all the way back over to be a**holes. I was like, alright guys, the presser’s done, and now you’re in our personal space,” said Sterling.

He further added, “I told him, ‘Dude, you’re really close now, and you’re being straight-up disrespectful. I’m right here now, so if you wanna sit behind this, you’re not very far away from me.” It was a relief that the security was there to manage the situation otherwise things could have been dirty.
