Jake Paul recently hosted the Francis Ngannou vs Renan Ferriera Face-off. Both Giants faced off on the stage while Jake Paul was backing them off. UFC CEO Dana White is not shy about being exposed to criticism, and celebrity boxer Paul has a habit of taking shots at him as often as he can. Professional Fighters League fighter Paul feels that he is competing with the UFC.
On Thursday at the press conference for Ngannou’s second fight in the octagon, the PFL co-owner sat back and watched his fighter dismantle a Brazilian heavyweight Renan Ferreira. During a face-off, Jake said he was a bit concerned that there might be a fight that could ensue and confessed he would not intervene. What he said about Dana White after the event drew the most attention from his fans.
Jake Paul Promoting Francis vs. Jones
In case you don’t know, White was contacted by Turki Alalshikh, who is famous for holding large combat sports events in Riyadh. Following the event, White was asked whether a fight between Jon Jones and Ngannou could be a possibility if PFL were to face UFC. For the first time, White agreed that he was somewhat in agreement with the concept. In the recent past, however, this issue was not very popular until Paul started discussing it. He argued that White is scared to make the Jones vs. Ngannou fight go down.
Dana White is Scared
Jones is undefeated and ruled the Pound-for-Pound title for a long time and that success profited UFC. So Dana wouldn’t want to lose that, and Paul understands that “I think Dana is scared to make it happen. I think he doesn’t want to lose his horse in Jones. I love Jon Jones but that’s too much of a risk for Dana to take. Francis is one of the – if not the – baddest man on the planet.”
He confronted White, that he didn’t want to make that fight happen. Jake Paul clarified, the voice of people by saying, “I think Dana’s scared. I don’t think he would want to do that, but the MMA fans want that. Doesn’t everyone want that? That’s what makes this fight exciting is Ferreira an insane competitor, but he would become the man, he would become the greatest heavyweight in MMA. But currently, as it stands, Francis Ngannou is the man to beat.”
Final Thought
White is supposed to answer this question, and most importantly he should make this fight happen. As Jones is planning to retire soon, this fight might not happen.
