‘Like just a little toy’… Jake Paul mocks Ilia Topuria as he claims two-weight UFC champion ducked spar

Jake Paul isn’t a fan of Ilia Topuria – and believes the two-weight UFC champion avoided a sparring session between the pair.

The controversial boxer got into it with Topuria on a stream with Adin Ross earlier this 12 months, and the pair appeared to conform to meet in a non-public gym spar. Nevertheless, that has yet to occur between Paul getting his broken jaw repaired and the MMA star preparing for his UFC White House headliner.

Could Jake Paul change into President?

With President Donald Trump giving Jake Paul his full endorsement, would you vote for a President Paul?

Now, Paul says that he has been ‘ducked’ by Topuria. He insists that it could be easy work for him in the event that they did meet within the boxing ring given not only his experience with other top MMA fighters but his massive size difference.

Jake Paul tears into Ilia Topuria in Complex interview

After the pair had an argument over the phone, Jake Paul pushed for a sparring session with Ilia Topuria at his home gym in Puerto Rico. And now, he has told Complex News that he feels the Spanish-based champion could be little greater than a tune-up for his return to fighting.

Speaking in regards to the Topuria stream and UFC stars normally, Paul said: “They should publicly, once they’re on the live streams, say ‘I’ll do it at once! Let’s do it!’ Then when it goes to occur, it doesn’t come to fruition.

“We’ll see! I actually have respect for him. But in a boxing match? That’s truthfully a warm up for me. All jokes aside, if we did MMA, he would probably win. But you only should know the reality that I believe these fighters attempt to boast an excessive amount of and act like they’re higher than they’re to the world.

“But let’s discover the reality; that’s what’s great in regards to the sport… It could be like fiddling with just a little toy. He’s like 5’5″, can’t even ride a roller coaster – the guy is tiny.”
