Jorge Masvidal happy to be acknowledged as a "pay-per-view superstar" by Dana White
In a recent war of words, Jake Paul took to his official Twitter handle to propose a challenge to Dana White. Paul claimed that he would retire from boxing and fight Jorge Masvidal in the octagon if the UFC president agrees to his conditions.
In response, Dana White stated that the YouTube sensation can't sell pay-per-views as he is not a huge draw the way UFC fighters like 'Gamebred' and Conor McGregor are.
Dana White posted a video on Twitter saying:
"You can’t sell pay-per-views. You don’t know. Yeah. You’re calling out Jorge Masvidal ‘cause he’s a pay-per-view superstar. Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor, Mike Tyson; these are all superstars. You’re not. You can’t sell pay-per-views. So, you do whatever the hell you want to do. I’m ready to roll, buddy. I don’t use cocaine. Do you use steroids? Let’s do this, Jake.”
.@jakepaul you never responded to the challenge https://t.co/1uzI9mur1T
In response, Jorge Masvidal posted a tweet implying the UFC president should have acknowledged him as a pay-per-view star sooner:
“Thank you to my employer for recognizing my hard work. Only took you 4 years. #supernecessary”
