Youtuber Jake Paul has said “I’m gonna dedicate my life” to defeating UFC megastar McGregor.
Commenting on a potential boxing match against the Irishman, Paul told TMZ Sports: “My team is talking to his manager but that’s all I’ll say.”
No other fighter with this big of a platform is calling out McGregor. My dogs have more followers than the guy he’s fighting in January.”
The famous Youtuber turn boxer insisted it’s a matter of ‘if’ and not ‘when’ he and McGregor come to blows inside the ring.
“It’s gonna be legendary.” Paul said. “I’m gonna win, too! That’s what I want people to understand!
“I’m gonna dedicate my life to winning that fight because I’m not going in there just to say I did it — I’m going in there to f*** Conor McGregor up.”
Paul (24) first called out McGregor following his brutal knockout of former basketball player Nate Robinson on the undercard of Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr last Saturday.
