Jake Paul insisted "change is coming" after UFC owner Ari Emanuel was forced to dismiss his concerns over fighter pay in the promotion.
The former Hollywood agent is CEO of entertainment agency Endeavor, which owns the promotion headed up by Dana White. And during yesterday's investor phone conference, the first since Paul invested a "six-figure sum" in the company, he was forced to defend their payment of fighters, which compares poorly to other major sporting leagues.
For their part, the UFC are said to have recorded unprecedented numbers last year after the return of fans to their events following the coronavirus pandemic. This is according to a statement from the company, who released fourth-quarter and final year earnings results for 2021 yesterday ahead of the call with investors.
