Jake Paul offers two UFC legends $10million as he continues search for MMA opponent ahead of Mike Tyson fight

Jake Paul is already looking past his fight with Mike Tyson.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer recently sent shockwaves through the combat sports world by announcing he will face Tyson at AT&T Stadium in Texas on July 20.

Although he’s got one of boxing’s best-ever heavyweights in front of him, Paul is publicly trying to secure an opponent for his MMA debut, which could take place later this year.

The 27-year-old signed a deal to fight under MMA rules for PFL in 2023 but he has since been fixated on continuing his 9-1 career in the squared circle.

Paul offered Nate Diaz an eight-figure payday to rematch him in MMA after outpointing the UFC legend when they boxed last August.

Now, he’s put the same deal on the table for Jorge Masvival, who will make his boxing debut opposite Diaz in a 10-round, 175lb fight in California on June 1.

“I am being so serious when I say that I want to fight them in MMA,” Paul said on his “BS w Jake Paul” podcast.

“Either Masvidal or Diaz, in the PFL, $10million offer for either one of those guys.

“Again, they will literally hide behind the fact… Masvidal: ‘You can’t even box. What the f*** are you going to do coming over to MMA, bro? I’m f***ing from Miami, Florida, bro! F*** you, don’t disrespect me.’

“F***ing bird brain, that’s what he hides behind. Same with Paddy [Pimblett], Sean Strickland, all of these guys hide behind these crazy things.

“Still, none of them have shown up to the table to talk any business about anything to make anything actually happen for a real fight, a real spar, whatever it is.

“So, the offer still stands there. I want either one of those guys in MMA.”

Diaz says he never turned down the offer but admits he has no interest in fighting in the PFL as he hopes to return to the UFC for a trilogy bout with Conor McGregor.

He said: “I didn’t turn it down. He [Paul] didn’t take my offer. No PFL. PFL, they’re selling two tickets and get two free. That’s what Dana [White] said.”

Masvidal, who is still under contract with the UFC, has also distanced himself from an MMA fight with Paul but did say they could settle their differences another way.

“Jake runs up on me somewhere else where it’s not a ring or something you can find out bro,” he said on The MMA Hour.

“You’re talking about the PFL, the f*** are you going to do in MMA? Are you kidding me? You can’t even box.

“Now you’re going to fight in MMA? I would kick your f***ing kneecap off your fragile body.

“You dumb motherf***er, don’t bring up MMA ever you disrespectful piece of s***.”
