Khabib Nurmagomedov Claims Jake Paul Will Never Be Able To Fight In MMA

Jake Paul has been fighting for the rights of UFC fighters when it comes to getting paid a fair wage for their efforts. Jake Paul had previously blasted Dana White over UFC not paying their fighters properly. It seems Jake Paul has clowned Dana White once again, this time over UFC jacking up their price.

Recently, Jake Paul received an open invitation to compete in a fight in Bellator by CEO Scott Coker. In response to the open invitation, Jake Paul even showed off a video where he was seemingly preparing for a fight in MMA.

Since then many fans have wondered whether The Problem Child will end up fighting in the MMA world, especially in the UFC. Paul even claimed that he will make his MMA debut as a welterweight.

While speaking on the Full Send podcast, MMA legend Khabib Nurmagomedov stated that he believes Jake Paul will not be able to wrestle in MMA.

“On boxing, he (Jake Paul) is like he knows how to punch, you know. He is not bad like in boxing game; you know. Anybody can box. You can box too. But you never can wrestle.

This is completely different, you know. And I think if he wants we can give him a chance, you know. We can sign him and you know, like we can pay him. And we will see.”

We will have to wait and see whether Jake Paul will eventually make his way to Khabib’s MMA promotion as it is highly unlikely Khabib will ever come out of retirement to fight Jake Paul.
