Jake Paul Offering UFC Star Michael Bisping $1 Million+ For Boxing Match

Jake Paul has $1 million for retired UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping—that is—if the retired UFC middleweight champion agrees to join him in the boxing ring this summer. The million-dollar paycheck would be the biggest of his career, but the amount is dwarfed by the $60 million Jake was willing to put up to see Kanye West spar with Pete Davidson.

As the YouTuber-turned-boxer continues his move into the competitive space of boxing and he's got plans for up to six more fights. The UFC champ is among six potential contenders Jake laid out on a “hit list” while speaking to Teddy Atlas on The Fight podcast. Jake, who plans on returning to the ring in August, also named Floyd Mayweather, Oscar De La Hoya, Anderson Silva, Tommy Fury, and Australia’s Sonny-Bill Williams.

After being namedropped on Jake's "hit list", the champ responded on Twitter. He accepted the fight but expressed doubt that the former Disney star would go through with it, citing his tendency to choose opponents who are smaller than he is.

"Come on Jake Paul, you do know I’m about your size? Surely that excludes me from your hit list?" he wrote on Twitter. Paul clapped back in no time, replying: "I would knock you out worse than Hendo. You’re an easy fight but show me you can get licensed and I will show you $1M plus PPV."

Last year, Jake claimed to earn $40 million from his rising boxing stardom. He demanded $35 million just to “start the conversation” about a potential match with UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov.

The Problem Child has triumphed in all five of his boxing matches. Four of his fights ended in knockouts.

The boxer recently offered to settle one of the biggest beefs in pop culture by broking a fight between Kanye West and Pete Davidson. He said he is willing to put up $60 million to make the fight a reality, with each opponent getting $30 million just to step in the ring.

Kanye, with a fortune valued at $2 billion, didn't even bother responding to the offer.
