Jake Paul is about to enter the ring against Ryan Bourland on 2 March, but he seems to be drooling for another opponent! In a recent pinch, ‘The Problem Child’ Paul claimed he would bully Sean Strickland if they ever fought! The update comes after the number one ranked UFC Middleweight in the world punished influencer Sneako.

Not long ago, a clip of Strickland sparring with the influencer at the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas surfaced online. To nobody’s surprise, the UFC man was too much for Sneako, but it did not sit well with Jake, who turned to X today, offering $1 million to Strickland for a fight. What’s more, when Strickland proposed an alternative, Paul labeled him a bully!

Jake Paul wants to fight on camera

Earlier today, Paul responded to the clip stating, “Shawn Strickland, you’re embarrassing for trying to stop sneako like that.” He highlighted that Strickland couldn’t even drop the influencer while giving his best, asserting he was a horrid fighter who only picks inexperienced boxers. So, he offered to “fly you to PR, and we can fight on camera…if you win, I’ll give you $1 million.” However, if he loses, Strickland has to get Paul’s ‘Betr’ tattooed on his body.

In a following tweet, Paul claimed, “I hate bullies. I was bullied and then was the bully sometimes in my YouTuber days. But now, all my energy is focused on Boxing Bullies and helping the youth.”  Yet, in another tweet, the YouTuber-turned-boxer asserted, “Constantly talking about killing people, calling them scumbags or wishing them to die bc they don’t agree with your opinion reeks of insecurity, not of being a confident man.”

However, he wasn’t done expressing his frustration with Jake Paul! He wrote in another tweet, “I’ll make you a better deal because money can’t buy happiness and you have plenty of it and [you’re] still a c**t……. No cameras, me and you in a desert…That would buy my happiness…No Instagram, no likes, no games…Just you that’s what I want…” Even though Strickland wanted to fight Paul, the latter claimed Strickland was ducking him in a following tweet.
