Jake Paul is already looking for his next fight.
And he’s aiming high.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer called out UFC superstar Conor McGregor on Saturday morning — for an MMA fight — just hours after his victory over Mike Tyson in Arlington, Texas on Friday night.
“Dear Conor, I know you told my team you would fight me at 170lbs,” Paul wrote on X. “That’s never happening. But let’s run it in MMA. No weight class. Just like how it used to be done. But you won’t.”
He didn’t stop there.
In post-fight interviews, Paul also taunted super middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and WBA lightweight champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis, perhaps teasing the next big-name bout.
“I’d be down,” Paul said of Davis in a press conference Friday night. “Let’s run it. Like, I’d be super, super down.”
Even before the Tyson fight, Paul has been no stranger to getting in the ring with famous athletes, including MMA stars Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz, ex-NBA player Nate Robinson and others.
In 12 career boxing matches, Paul is 11-1 after beating Tyson on Friday, with his only loss coming at the hands of Tommy Fury, the younger brother of former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, in February 2023.
Paul, 27, beat the 58-year-old Tyson, who was fighting an officially sanctioned bout for the first time in 19 years, by unanimous decision, 80-72, 79-73, 79-73 in a match that was generally derided as a snoozer.
“He is exactly what I thought,” Paul said after the fight. “He’s an icon. He’s a legend.
“I wanted to give fans a show,” Paul added. “But I didn’t want to hurt someone who didn’t need to be hurt.”
