The 23-year-old called Conor after he destroyed Nate Robinson on the Mike Tyson undercard over the weekend – and while many laughed at Jake’s comments, Paul says Sports TMZ he is very serious.
“My team is talking to their manager but that’s all I’m going to say,” Jake said with a smirk.
Then came the chatter …
“No other fighter with such a platform calls McGregor. My dogs have more followers than the guy he fought in January. “
This is not quite true… Conor’s next opponent is Dustin Poirier, a highly respected UFC fighter with 1.7 million Instagram followers.
Jake’s dogs, Lil Moo and Thor, have 1.6 million followers.
Jake has 13.9 million.
Paul says it’s not a matter of “if” when it comes to Conor, it’s a matter of “when” – stating, “It’s gonna be legendary.”
“I’m going to win too! This is what I want people to understand! “
Jake added, “I’m going to dedicate my life to winning this fight because I’m not going in there just to say I did – I’m going out there to fuck Conor McGregor. “
There is more… Jake also tells us that he contacted Nate Robinson after the knockout and hope to connect with him in the future.
It’s unclear if they’ll ever be friends, but Jake says he has respect for the former NBA star and hopes people stop clowning Nate over the knockout.
