Jake Paul might retire from boxing.
Happy new year @danawhite. Here is a real challenge for you…
I will immediately retire from boxing and fight Jorge Masvidal in the UFC if you agree to: pic.twitter.com/bJScDVITvL

Secondly, Jake Paul wants the fighters of UFC to get 50% of UFC’s annual revenues. Thirdly, he also wants the UFC to provide long-term healthcare to its fighters. Jake Paul’s challenge to Dana White expires in five days.
Jake Paul also shared a message to UFC fighters.
“To all UFC fighters – time to take a stand and
create value for yourselves and peers. You
deserve higher pay, you deserve long term
healthcare and above all you deserve freedom.
Support each other. I am not your enemy, I am –
your advocate…who selfishly wants to KO a few
of you to make some big bank” – Jake Paul
