Dana White ridicules Jake Paul for calling out Alex Pereira, who 'sells 400 times the f*cking pay-per-views'
Dana White thinks Jake Paul needs Alex Pereira to sell pay-per-views.
Paul called out UFC light heavyweight champion Pereira after he stopped Mike Perry in their boxing match in July. “Poatan” responded by saying, “Let’s go,” but White is far from interested in making that fight happen.
White thinks Pereira is the much bigger draw, and doesn’t see Paul as a pay-per-view star.
“I wonder if the commission would even let that f*cking fight happen,” White said on FULL SEND PODCAST. “Are you talking boxing or UFC? He’d kick his f*cking head to another planet. He calls people out for attention. Alex is a f*cking superstar right now. So Jake calls him out and Jake gets press. Jake says I’m trying to assassinate him, and I said I’m going to f*cking …
“It’s all lies. It’s not true. Yeah, (Pereira is a bigger star than Paul). He sells 400 times the f*cking pay-per-views. The Jake Paul fight that just happened didn’t sell any f*cking pay-per-views. They don’t sell sh*t for pay-per-views. I’ll give him this: It’s fascinating that they keep getting new deals done with these guys that (have) got to be getting f*cked.”
Paul meets boxing legend Mike Tyson Nov. 15 at AT&T Stadium in Dallas. White says he stopped following Paul’s career ever since he lost to Tommy Fury.
“Jake Paul’s doing his thing,” White said. “He went out and lied and said I would sign Mike Perry if he beat him, I’ve been trying to assassinate him. You haven’t heard me say sh*t about Jake Paul, and the only time I ever talk about Jake Paul is if I’m asked about him.
“He went out and lied and said I said all this sh*t. It’s the furthest thing from the truth. Do you think with all the sh*t I’ve got going on and what we’re doing, you think I’m f*cking thinking about Jake Paul? I’m not. And I don’t mean that in a way to sh*t on the f*cking kid, it’s just the truth.”
