Summary
- Jake Paul expressed openness to boxing Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov.
- He called UFC champion Ilia Topuria a 'warm-up' in a boxing match.
- Paul's recent loss was to Anthony Joshua, and he seeks a strong comeback.
Jake Paul is once again targeting prominent figures in the fighting world, expressing his interest in boxing matches against Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Following a recent TKO loss to Anthony Joshua, Paul is actively seeking his next opponent for a strong comeback. He also recently commented on UFC champion Ilia Topuria, whom he believes would be an easy opponent in a boxing match.
Paul explicitly stated that while Topuria might pose a challenge in MMA, he sees the UFC star as a 'warm-up' in boxing. He described Topuria as 'tiny' and someone he could 'play with' in a boxing ring, though he respects his MMA abilities.
Despite these bold claims, no official fights have been announced between Paul and any of these UFC stars. Paul's past boxing victories include wins over Nate Diaz, Anderson Silva, and Tyron Woodley.
