Jake Paul makes sneaky Conor McGregor remark in rant about "bum" Dillon Danis

Jake Paul managed to sneak Conor McGregor into his latest fighter pay message, which doubled as a mocking tweet to Dillon Danis ahead of his boxing debut.

Paul, who is planning to start a union to help fighters improve their conditions, was stunned to hear that Danis is making in the region of seven figures to face KSI in a boxing match next month. Most UFC champions, including the famed heavyweight ruler Francis Ngannou, earn considerably less than £1million per fight, which Danis noted when he revealed his purse.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer took to social media to express his annoyance at fighter pay remaining the same in the UFC while promoters have increased the pay-per-view price for next year. And as usual for Paul, he snuck in shots at Danis and McGregor in his message.
