The MMA community anticipated that Jake Paul would begin calling out warriors disrespectfully if he won against Ben Askren. ‘The Problem Child’ did not disappoint anyone in this regard.
After defeating Ben Askren in the first round of their Triller Fight Club bout, Jake has called out UFC greats, Nate Diaz and Dustin Poirier. Furthermore, he says that the Conor McGregor battle is currently nearing becoming a reality. Jake wants to take on Daniel Cormier for a battle and claims he will ‘cook up’ the former two-division UFC champion, ‘Cleveland style.’

The call-out was in response to a tweet by Daniel Cormier. He criticized the way Paul and his friend, fellow boxer J’Leon Love, were speaking to Tyron Woodley. DC asked Jake Paul and J’Leon Love to better start respecting fighters before Woodley ‘puts his hands’ on them.
Daniel tweeted, “I mean the way this dude talked to T- wood makes my skin crawl. All these kids are going to get taught a lesson I swear. And I can’t wait for it, @JLeonLove you can’t fight. Better respect dudes like @TWooodley before he puts his hands on you. He ain’t Ben!
