UFC president Dana White did not mince his words when addressing YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul as their war of words continues.
Paul has turned heads in the fight world in recent months after victories in the ring over veteran NBA star Nate Robinson, and more recently, a first-round stoppage against retired UFC fighter Ben Askren.
With everyone having their own opinion on Paul’s moves in the boxing game, the outspoken YouTube star has had some social media scraps with White.

The UFC boss bet $1million that Askren would beat Paul in their recent boxing match, and although a bet was never formally made, it was the latter who came out on top in emphatic fashion.
Since his victory, Paul has continued to agitate professional fighters in both the boxing and MMA world and most recently squared up with UFC legend Daniel Cormier.
He later took to Twitter to claim that White does not pay his UFC fighters enough for stepping in the octagon, and he responded by giving him a warning.

‘I hate the dildos who pop in here and say ‘Hey, pay Jake Paul’. I hate them worse than I hate Jake Paul,’ White told FightHype.com
‘Listen, the kid is making money and makes people care. He makes people give a s***. I don’t hate the kid, I know people are very excited for the day when he gets clipped and gets knocked out.
‘It is coming. His 15 minutes are nearly up, but the kid is going to make some money. Good for him.’
