American video blogger Jake Paul accused Russian mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter and head of Eagle FC Khabib Nurmagomedov of lying. He stated this in an interview with YouTube channel MMAFightingonSBN.
The YouTube star said that he was not invited to the promotion of the Russian. “It is not true. They never offered me anything, ”said Paul.
The blogger also revealed that he needs more money than he currently earns in boxing to venture into MMA right now. “People would have to pay $25 million to $35 million just to start a conversation with me,” he added.
On January 30, it was reported that Nurmagomedov invited the American to his promotion. Earlier in social networks, they expressed their willingness to cooperate. Nurmagomedov said that the doors of the promotion are open for Paul. The latter has also expressed interest in playing at Eagle FC.
Paul is known for a series of fights under the rules of boxing with professional fighters. In particular, he defeated Ben Askren and twice – over Tyron Woodley. Both previously competed in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).
