‘I ain’t no Disney kid’, Kamaru Usman rejects Jake Paul’s offer of ‘biggest pay day’

3-0 pro boxer Jake Paul was at UFC 261 this past weekend taking in the festivities (and getting into it with Daniel Cormier). Paul was also there to watch his friend and training partner Jorge Masvidal compete for the welterweight title.

Unfortunately for him, and Gamebred, Kamaru Usman would continue to pad his resume as the greatest welterweight of his generation, knocking Masvidal out cold in the second round.

On seeing his friend knocked silly, Paul seemingly decided he wanted a piece of that action. “Challenge accepted,” he wrote on Twitter. “[Usman], if your boss Dana gives you permission to box me and make more money than you ever have, let me know and we can lace them up.
