Jake Paul Explains Why Conor McGregor Won’t Fight Him For $100 Million

Jake Paul is putting out some bait for Conor McGregor.

Jake Paul appears to be looking toward his next opponent. Jake wants to fight MMA superstar Conor McGregor, one of the highest-earning athletes in history. But Jake doesn’t believe Conor will fight him, even if it’s a $100 million PPV. On the most recent episode of BS w/ Jake Paul, Jake Paul was asked if he believes the fight against Conor McGregor will ever happen. The short answer is ‘no’ but the full quote reveals why Jake doesn’t think Conor wants to square up with him in the boxing ring. When asked if he thinks the Conor fight will happen.

“I don’t, unfortunately. Just because I think he will see what I do to Anderson and he will say ‘why would I make this kid $100 million and lose to him so he can make his name off of me.’ Who knows what that guy is doing? His career is coming to an end.”

Paul added “I’m saying that he would make my name so much bigger if I beat him. He is A-side for sure and I would make less money in the fight, he would have the bigger percentage, but that’s speaking right now who knows what happens.”

Jake Paul wants to fight the Full Send/Nelk Boys crew at some point too.  McGregor is a business man, and if he sees an offer worth taking, he probably doesn’t care too much about who he’s fighting.

Boxing has become an even bigger joke since Jake Paul entered the fray.
