Jake Paul has flipped the script on Dana White by mocking the amount of tickets still available for UFC 279 next month.
UFC 279 will serve as Nate Diaz's final fight in the promotion after a 15-year tenure as he meets unbeaten star Khamzat Chimaev in the pay-per-view's headliner. With just over three weeks to go until the event, there is a lack of notable fights on the card and the promotion has been accused of intentionally putting on the "worst card of all time" for Diaz's swansong.
Paul has mocked UFC boss White as a large majority of seating sections in the T-Mobile Arena are still available for the event. "Damn Dana White…looks like you can’t sell tickets in your own hometown of Las Vegas for UFC 279? Not only do you hold Nate Diaz hostage. Not only do you put him up against a terrible opponent stylistically, but you create the worst PPV card of the year to honour this man? ESPN even on you," he wrote on social media.
