Jorge Masvidal claims Jake Paul “wouldn’t be able to walk” if they fought
UFC superstar Jorge Masvidal insists Jake Paul “wouldn’t be able to talk” if they fought, claiming he’d “slam him through concrete” and make him “invalid” for the rest of his life.
Masvidal and Jake started off ascomradesin the lead-up to Jake’s fight againstBen Askrenin April 2021. However, their relationship soured months later in August when Masvidal predicted Tyron Woodley would knock Jake out. The two of them have been linked to a fight ever since. Jake evenpitched the ideato UFC President Dana White. It didn’t eventuate, though, withWhite telling Jaketo fightAnderson Silvainstead. The bad blood between them hasn’t gone away. Masvidal spoke about it with Ariel Helwani during an episode ofThe MMA Hour. He claimed that although fighting Jake isn’t in his plans, it could happen down the track.
However, he believes the gap between them is insurmountable.“I can always pick this little kid up and slam him through the concrete so hard that he will be invalid for the rest of his life. He wouldn’t be able to walk.”
A fight between Masvidal and Paul might not happen anytime soon though. Although it hasn’t been made official yet, Jake’s next opponent isreportedlyset to beTommy Fury.
There are plenty of other rumors floating around, too. Jake has been linked to a fight againstFloyd Mayweather,Conor McGregor, and more. Masvidal is another candidate to add to the list. However, it’s a fight that fans would love to see.
