Jake Paul presents Paddy Pimblett with a new offer to spar post-UFC 282 after learning about 'The Baddy's alleged plan to book him for his podcast
Jake Paul and Paddy Pimblett continued their efforts to work out a sparring match between themselves.
After Pimblett made comments about Paul's fight against Anderson Silva being rigged, 'The Problem Child' challenged him to a sparring match. Paul offered to fly the UFC lightweight to Puerto Rico for a five-round session with a million dollars at stake.
Pimblett responded to the challenge with further stipulations of his own, offering to spar with Paul at the UFC Performance Institute after his UFC 282 co-main event against Jared Gordon.
"Challenge accepted. We're not coming to Puerto Rico when I'm fighting next Saturday. If you want to come and spar, get to PI [UFC Performance Institute] next week, as I said, I'll fight Saturday, I'll chill Sunday, and I'll beat you up on Monday. Offer's there."

Paul took to Twitter to respond to 'The Baddy' and offered to postpone the sparring match until January and club a podcast episode with it. Apparently, Pimblett's team has been looking to book Paul for an episode of Chattin Pony with Paddy the Baddy.
"Fella my team told me you have been trying to book me for ur podcast, Jan 5th. So I’m sending you a jet to bring you to Puerto Rico. Both of our teams will film. We spar, 5 rounds and then we can do your podcast. By then you will be back to your normal weight. No excuses. [handshake emoji]?"
