Jorge Masvidal seemingly wants a fight next that will put him in a position to challenge again for the UFC welterweight title. He recently claimed that UFC President Dana White could send him to fight YouTube stars, The Paul Brothers(Logan and Jake Paul). Masvidal and Jake Paul got into a back-and-forth exchange in interviews and on social media in the lead-up to Paul’s boxing match last month with Tyron Woodley.
Jorge Masvidal says Dana White does no like Paul Brothers
Masvidal told ESPN in an interview Sunday night that he would be interested in fighting Jake Paul and his older brother Logan in the boxing ring. Masvidal said minutes after making an appearance during the All Elite Wrestling pay-per-view event All Out:
“I’m gonna beat up all the Pauls,” “If they put money in my pocket, that Logan Paul dude, Jake Paul, whoever Paul dudes — if they put money in my pocket, of course I’d like to break some Disney characters’ faces. I’ve been fighting men who have been training since 7, 8 years old to do the same thing to me what I want to do to them. Fighting guys like [the Pauls] is a bonus, man.”
Masvidal, the UFC’s BMF champion, is obviously still under contract with the MMA promotion. But he doesn’t think it would be out of the question for him to cross over into boxing with UFC president Dana White’s blessing, especially given Jake Paul often verbally attacking White and UFC stars.

He said:
“UFC would have to sign off, but nothing is impossible,” Masvidal said. “Dana doesn’t like those guys and Dana knows I’ll go in there and put a hurting on those kids. Maybe he does send in the f—ing assassin.”
