Jake Paul warned UFC manager Ali Abdelaziz is "coming for him" after feud

Jake Paul has been warned his comments about MMA manager Ali Abdelaziz will not go unpunished.

Paul labelled Abdelaziz a "rat" and "s***bag criminal" whilst discussing a potential fight between his client, UFC champion Kamaru Usman and Canelo Alvarez. Abdelaziz then promised to make Paul pay for his words, telling MMA Junkie : "I’m going to deal with him [Paul] because he said some things.

"It’s funny because Jake Paul never said things about me, but suddenly, he does and I know where this is coming from. I'm going to tell you something, somebody is going to have to pay for what he said.”

Former UFC champion Michael Bisping has warned Paul that Abdelaziz will be "coming for him" because of his comments. Bisping praised Abdelaziz for being a "legit" martial artist. The MMA manager, who is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt and accomplished judoka, had a brief stint as a fighter going 1-3 in his four professional fights.

"I'm telling you right now, Jake Paul. Ali Abdelaziz has got form and as we saw, a black belt under Renzo Gracie, that's legit. Fourth dan in Judo, that's legit as well and he is a former fighter himself," Bisping said on his YouTube channel.

"He's a very passionate man, he sticks up for himself. Case in point, the No.1 d**** on planet earth, Dillon Danis. UFC 268, Madison Square Garden, all s*** hit the fan because Dillon was running his mouth and Ali gave him the best b**** slap you ever saw.

"I never call for violence but certain people need a good old slap. Ali you are the man in my opinion for doing that. There's been a couple of other interactions as well. So Jake Paul, if you are out there and you see Ali Abdelaziz, he is coming for you buddy!"

In a time where many have been critical of the Paul's move to boxing, Abdelaziz admitted he was "shocked" at the YouTube star's comments as he has praised his involvement in the sport.

Abdelaziz thinks Paul mentioned his name into question because it raises more eyebrows when MMA is discussed. “He’s pimped, he’s a little prostitute,” Abdelaziz said of Paul. “At the end of the day, they have to bring in MMA, they have to bring in UFC because they don’t get enough attention and they have to speak about us."
