JAKARTA - Before his rematch with Tyron Woodley on Sunday morning, Jake Paul is determined to extend his winning streak in boxing.
However, he also has ambitious plans after confirming that he intends to appear in MMA (mixed martial arts) in the future.
The controversial YouTuber believes he can perform at a high level in MMA and expressed his desire to be coached by Team Khabib.
"I don't understand why, if I can box at this high level, I can't fight in MMA at this high level," Paul said, as reported by ESPN.
“I will be coached by Javi Mendez, Team Khabib. Just that".
"I have to win 10-0 or 12-0 in boxing first and then I'll jump into that MMA fight".

Meanwhile, former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley doesn't believe Paul can succeed in MMA. "He's a complete liar," Woodley said.
"Then let's fight. Do you want to bet? Let's bet.
"You want to fight in MMA, come and fight me. I came to box him. I went up a class and a half.
"Come to MMA, we'll fight middleweight and you'll really see what it is".
What Woodley said, Paul seemed to have heard. After all, Woodley is a former UFC champion. Of course, this is completely different from boxing.
As for their boxing rematch in Tampa, Florida on Sunday, Paul again defeated Woodley, this time in the sixth round. So far, Paul is unbeaten in the five boxing fights he has fought.
