Jake Paul has declared that he will be coming for Conor McGregor next after the Irishman critiqued his latest boxing KO.
McGregor was so disgusted by Paul’s vicious fifth round knockout win over Mike Perry that he told the bare knuckle boxer that he was ‘fired’ by BKFC for his efforts. This is despite Perry being the promotion’s biggest draw and their ‘King of Violence’.
But his most vicious diatribe was saved for Paul, whom he claimed to have been cheating in a foul-mouthed rant. However, the social media star took it in his stride, and turned it into another opportunity to call out the Irishman.
Conor McGregor tears into Jake Paul as he declares Mike Perry is ‘cut’ from BKFC
Despite supporting Perry in the build-up to last night’s fight with Jake Paul, Conor McGregor was so irritated by the fight that he went on a multi-tweet diatribe. He first slammed the YouTube star, before declaring that the former UFC welterweight was ‘fired’ from BKFC.
“Jake Paul is the biggest p***bag I have ever seen in my life,” McGregor wrote immediately after watching the knockout. “40 pound weight difference, juiced out of his head, and still s****ing himself in there.
“Nakisa [Bidarian, Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions co-founder] you should take him to Vegas oh that’s right you could never, the athletic commission testing, real testing, real fighting. B**** a**es. You could never.
“And then calling out 60-year-old Mike Tyson fresh off an in flight medical emergency? I swear to god, a fat can of b**** p***. Most valuable p***bag.”
He then added in a message directed at Perry: “Hey Mike you’re released and you can go and compete in your smelly dirty boxing championship thing, the smell of it, good luck. You’re fired.”
Jake Paul hits back at Conor McGregor after Mike Perry diatribe
Paul, who has been pursuing a bout with McGregor for almost four years since his boxing debut in 2020, was quick to retaliate. While speaking at his post-fight press conference, he was asked about the tweet, and declared he would be going for McGregor next.
“That’s f***ed up that you fired your BKFC champion,” Paul joked, while Bidarian added that Perry was ‘the face of BKFC’. “But I told you that was going to happen, I told you exactly what was going to happen, he was big upping his boy Mike Perry.
“I said ‘okay Conor, after I f*** up Mike Perry then you’re next’. So Conor is on Twitter all the time, on his yacht all the time, but guess where he’s not? In the ring fighting me.
“So he can talk all the f*** he wants, but ‘The Notorious MMA‘ is scared of Jake Joseph Paul from Disney Channel. And I put that on my mama!”
Jake Paul calls for Alex Pereira next following Mike Perry KO
Another UFC star who Paul was calling for after beating Perry was the current light-heavyweight champion Alex Pereira. The social media star is often criticised for fighting people from a few weight classes below, but wants a serious challenge in the Brazilian, however unlikely.
“Alex Pereira, you said you want to box,” Paul said, noting an interaction earlier this month that the UFC champion had with boxing star Anthony Joshua. “I’m the king of this, come over, we can make it happen. I want you, Alex Pereira.
“Indeed, I just beat a BKFC champion, I’ve beat multiple UFC champions and he said he wants to box. So Alex Pereira after Mike Tyson, let’s make it happen.” He immediately jumped on FaceTime with the Brazilian in the ring, although what was said is still unclear.
