JAKARTA - Jake Paul is not giving up and wants to face Conor McGregor this year. The YouTuber, who has now turned his back to become a boxer, continues to launch proposals on social networks for a boxing match against The Notorious.
After several rejections, Paul offered UFC president Dana White a deal to agree to his fight against McGregor. Problem Child didn't give a number, but was clear about the terms he expected in the contract.
On Saturday, Paul delivered a tweet to White that raised the stakes on his potential to fight in the octagon.

"Dana. Since you like me now, how about a UFC 1 fight deal against Conor," Paul tweeted.
"If I win, you agree to my UFC fighter salary and health care proposal.
"If I lose, I donate my entire wallet to any UFC fighter who makes less than $50k in a fight and never mentions the UFC again.
Agreed?"

Paul's proposal came one day after he tweeted that he would KO McGregor in both boxing and MMA. Over the past few months, the 25-year-old has focused on criticizing the earnings of promoted fighters at the UFC.
He even dedicated a rap song against the UFC president.
The last time Paul stepped into the ring was in a rematch against Tyron Woodley in December, where he won by knockout in the sixth round.
This year, Paul doesn't have any fights on the agenda yet and he's been battling The Notorious who are ready to return to action after a leg injury has healed.
McGregor himself had not said no to a possible fight against Paul when he was asked about it last month at Bellator 275 in Dublin.
