He is ducking One confirmed.
Now seriously. If he joined mma organisation
he would fight in his own weight class.
Remember all his fights were on his terms and people smaller than him
1. Youtuber
2. Former basketball player
3. Retired mma wrestling specialist with hip replacement
4. Mma wrestler on a loosing streak
5. Same guy as in 4.
All guys shorter and weighted less than him.

do you think its happening? masvidal vs jake could do crazy ppvs that even Dana might let it happen.

jake seems crazy enough to just try everything but i cant see him winning it though
 
So he tags the B & C leagues? Both are not on PPV, the biggest payday both have offered requires winning multiple fights in a league and/or tournament format, which he makes more in boxing, why would he make any transition to that?
 
With his wrestling background and boxing skills already as good as anyone in MMA, plus his work ethic and money to hire the best trainers etc…it’s not a stretch to think he can compete with real MMA guys, not a stretch at all.

Lesser guys have gone FAR in MMA, remember that.

they could cross promote and have it on PPV, Jake is the one that is selling the fights it wouldn't matter if it was in MMA or boxing.

The man’s motivated and has the money to do nothing but focus on training. Could be interesting. He’ll never hold a belt In a major org but could rustle Jimmie’s on the way.

There are lesser guys that started much later that have gone far. Wrestling background, boxing better than most in MMA + 1 punch lights out power and a work ethic will take him FAR if he wants to.
 
Sounds like the money is drying up in boxing so he will end up milking Dana for another payday or two

Also I didnt realize knocking out Woodley and Askren makes you as good of a boxer as any MMA fighter.
 
Please don't come to UFC. It will be embarrassing for UFC fighters to take L vs YouTuber this time in a MMA match

We know he can box as good as any MMA fighter. With his wrestling history, and a little bit of kickboxing, he would embarrass MMA. This is what happens when an A-level athlete decides to take shit seriously.

Not to mention size. It’s not a stretch to think he can KO a guy like McGregor who isn’t the strongest with grappling in some time, he’s much much bigger.

Hell, with Jake’s college wrestling background it probably won’t take long to get to Connor’s level of grappling and surpass it.

You’re right it could. I just don’t see it. He’ll strike while the irons hot then leave. I have nothing against him or what’s he’s done or doing. I just don’t think he’ll make a career outta MMA
 
Jake Paul knows which organizations to work with. Good for him.

Also that OP is a train-wreck.
