Jake Paul believes that Dana White is trying to avoid making a fight between him and Conor McGregor due to fears he would win, even in MMA.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer has long pushed for a fight with the legendary former two-weight UFC champion, and now claims that he would be willing to come into the Irishman's sport to make it happen. But White isn't keen on the idea, telling the social media star's older brother Logan that he feels Jake should be fighting people in his own weight class.
McGregor is currently weighing around 190lb, which is similar to Paul's fight weight, but is known for fighting at 155lb, or lightweight in MMA, and even won his first world title at 145lb, which is featherweight in the octagon. Paul believes that there is a way they could meet at 175lb, saying he would be willing to make the massive cut in order to seal the fight.
