Jake Paul calls out Kamaru Usman as YouTuber offers UFC superstar ‘biggest ever payday’ for boxing fight

JAKE PAUL wants to tempt UFC superstar Kamaru Usman into a boxing fight by offering him his ‘biggest every payday.’

The Youtuber is looking for his fourth opponent after beating Ben Askren inside one round last Saturday.

Paul, 24, went on to claim that he pocketed a whopping £54million from pay-per-views buys alone.

He now wants the UFC welterweight champion to have a slice of the pie if Dana White allows him.

Taking to Twitter, Paul wrote: “Challenge accepted.

“Usman if your boss Dana gives you permission to box me and make more money than you ever have, let me know and we can lace them up.

“I promise it will be your biggest pay day.”

Paul has called out every big name in combat sports including Floyd Mayweather, Conor McGregor and Daniel Cormier.

But it appears unlikely UFC chief White will give Usman, who demolished Jorge Masvidal on Sunday, the green light to switch to boxing.

White has made it no secret of his dislike for Paul’s moving into boxing, labelling it a ‘f****** circus.’

He said: “I don’t believe anything they say, it’s a f****** circus. None of that is real.

“You think any of the s*** that goes on over there is real? Come on, man. I’m trying to build a real sport here.

“That’s a freakshow.”

Paul is preparing for a potential bout with Tommy Fury after confirming talks are underway.

The Paul/Tommy feud began when WBC champ Tyson Fury implored Paul to take on his younger brother.

Since then the pair have trash talked each other over social media and they are both keen to face one another in the ring.
