The former UFC star Michael Bisping recently claimed that he was offered a fight against YouTuber-turned-pro-boxer Jake Paul. However, it was ‘The Problem Child’ who allegedly ‘disappeared’ soon after laying down the offer. Not only that, Bisping recently seemed to be confident of beating Jake Paul inside the squared circle.
Michael Bisping says he could beat Jake Paul
In a live Q&A session on his official YouTube channel, Michael Bisping said:
“I can beat Jake Paul, I know for a fact. Without a shadow of a doubt, that is a fact. Jake Paul made me an offer, I said I’ll fight him. I said, ‘I’ll fight you’, I’m down for it. He disappeared, didn’t expect me to say that, did he?”
Earlier in an appearance on the ‘Believe You Me’ podcast, Michael Bisping had stated that he was offered $500,000 to fight Paul before ‘The Problem Child’ fought the former UFC Welterweight Champion Tyron Woodley the first time around.
