Jake Paul claims UFC fighters are in “slave contracts” as he continues pay push

Jake Paul has claimed UFC fighters are signed to "slave contracts" as he continues his push to increase pay for the roster.

The YouTube star has made a quicktime rise to prominence in the world of combat sports, which has been down to his undefeated start to life in the ring. He has defeated the likes of UFC legend Anderson Silva and Tyron Woodley, having been keen to give them a payday to support his views on UFC fighter pay.

Paul has been extremely vocal about UFC fighter pay and healthcare, launching a tirade against promotion president Dana White, while also planning to launch a fighters union with former opponent Silva. And in his latest jab at the UFC, Paul has suggested he would fight in the organisation as long as his proposed changes are made.
