YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul and former UFC star Jorge Masvidal were close to coming to blows in a parking lot.
In a video posted on betr’s social networks, Internet users were able to see Jake Paul and Jorge Masvidal confront each other in a parking lot. The two men were surrounded by members of their respective teams, as well as numerous cameras. For the moment, we do not know if this is a real interaction, or a staging aimed at teasing a potential future boxing fight. One thing is certain, the sequence has caused a lot of ink to flow.
“Right now, there’s nobody I’m really interested in,” Masvidal told MMA Junkie Radio. “I always thought (Jake Paul) would be a great fight for me, that I could knock him out and make some easy money. But he lost. If he comes back and gets a few wins, why not. This guy is easy money. »
At the moment, Jake Paul is preparing for his fight against Nate Diaz. The two athletes are scheduled to face off on August 5, in Texas. Jorge Masvidal is currently a free agent after leaving the UFC following his loss to Gilbert Burns at UFC 287.
