Jorge Masvidal About Planned Duel Against Jake Paul: Dude, I Love Money!

JAKARTA - Jake Paul continues to run the boxing circus in exhibition fights, and Jorge Masvidal seems to have changed his mind, admitting that his love of money could see him fight the social media star.

Masvidal and Paul have gone back and forth on social media in recent years. But now it seems the former UFC star could choose a boxing fight against Paul.

"Dude, I love money!" Masvidal told the IMPAULSIVE podcast quoted from Marca, Monday.

"If he makes me a lot of money, why not?"

Ahead of a possible fight with Paul, Masvidal credited the YouTube star with a significant improvement in his fighting technique and sharpness.

"The best thing I saw from him was that he took a lot of punches in his last fight," Masvidal added.

"In the next round he still couldn't believe it, but in the next round he came back. He started fighting more and better, that's the best thing I've ever seen from him."
