So guys, today on Aiden Ross' stream, he invited Jake Paul in to talk with Andrew Tay. Enjoy.
What up, man?
Training hard?
Oh shit. Yeah dude, non-stop. Honestly, this is my best shape I've been in. I'm excited for this fight. 18 days away.
Damn.
When you getting in there, Aiden?
Actually, you know, soon. Okay. He's got to fight his battle against Lean first. Bro, what is going on with this Lean shit? I think, yes, bro, I'm clean. What the fuck is going on here? You know what? I'm going to say this right now.
Jake, after you beat Diaz, I want to get in some work with you. We'll do some Miami training on the hot sun.
You know what I'm saying? On the beach? No, Aiden, it's not just about the training. I think every man should have a professional fight at some point in his life. One, because of the pressure you're under and how scary it is, because there's a lot of pressure, because you're putting your ego on the line. And secondly, because you have to dedicate yourself to a training camp completely and fully. You can't just do one pad session and put it on the fucking Internet and talk about being a fighter. You need to dedicate yourself and try hard and set a date where you have a fair competition against another man and put it on the line. That's what you need to do as a man. So you learn about yourself.
okay yeah don't you don't you have beef with like a some other streamers and stuff too
Like one guy named his son, but he's like seven foot tall and he wears dresses. So I'm not going to fight that guy. You're Andrew. Oh, there you go.
Is that the guy? The guy I think it is? Yes, it is. Oh my God. Your mate.
Yeah. But no, man, I would love to get in the ring. I swear. I actually really, really would one day.
I think if you...
had a reason to stop
Sipping lean, it would help you like if you had to leave.
I'm going to clean for a while now, about a month.
But you were texting my friend like three days ago asking for a lean plug.
Yeah.
Andrews line.
No, I'm not.
I'm not lying. You're talking about Jasper. Okay. Yes. It was not three days ago. I texted him like a couple months ago about lean.
I haven't done lean in over a month. You can drug, I'll take a drug test on stream tomorrow.
Do it. Do it. Chat. Chat. We want to see this. Make sure he does this. Okay, fine. I'll do it. No, no, no. All right. We won't talk about it. We won't talk about it. I'm going to do it for real. I'm going to do it.
Thank you.
I got you. Um,
Yeah, I got you. So you won't talk shit. You're never going to get a drug test. You don't talk to shit. You guys are dangling me. Jake, are you going to fight Andrew?
And if you're going to fight Jake, we'll go to the other fight.
Well, I'll tell you something. Let's talk about this because there was a time where I called out Jake Paul. There was that time. So let's talk about that. It's when Jake first called out Connor. I think this was like four or five years ago. Is that correct?
A while ago.
And I said, Jake, I'll fight you. I remember saying it to him. At the time, I wasn't nearly as known as I am now.
And then since then, I've made it very clear also to the world. I said that Jake, I believe, is the best YouTube boxer. I believe he can beat them all. And I think he's training very hard. And a fight against Jake would be a real fight. And I do believe he's working hard in the gym and he's more of a boxer than he is a YouTuber now.
I don't think we're going to fight, especially because of my current legal situation. I can't even leave my house. However,
I do think that in terms of YouTube boxing, I'm glad it's a space now. I like the idea of people with beef fighting each other.
And I do also, and I want to make this clear to everyone, and I've said it multiple times, I do think Jake is the best of all the YouTube boxers. I don't think that can be denied.
Well, thank you. No, I appreciate that. I think, yeah, my answer to it would be like if you figured out your legal situation, I think you should get in there because it would be massive. Maybe not with me, maybe with whoever it is, but everyone I think would want to see you fight.
I asked for a lot of money and they offered me all the money I wanted and it was very close to being signed. And then I obviously ended up in a prison cell. So certain things changed. But yeah, I know the whole world wants to see it. The whole world would love for me to get in there and fight somebody. I'm very aware of that.
but uh we have to make sure the stars align if we could ever figure it out i'll be down to do mma
or boxing either like the pfl would make it happen so if if you ever figure out the situation i think it would be huge
You know what we should do, Jake? While you're next training, I know you're only 18 days away from a fight, but next time you're training and you want some sparring, fly to Romania and we'll spar and we'll film it and we'll decide if we want to release it or not afterwards. But I have no problem. We can have a sparring match anytime. That's easy, right? But we can't release it for free. It's like giving the people what they want for nothing. That's kind of crazy.
Yeah, that's true. Hey, guys, I would love to. You know what? I'll spar, too, with you guys. Fuck it. Jake, let's just go to Romania. We'll go 50-50 on the jet. Go to Romania, Jake, and I'll spar. We could do a threesome spar. I'm with it.
Why do you make everything sound weird? Dude.
I'm down to just spar with you guys for fun. Guys being dudes.
anyway yeah have you ever played a sport aiden have you ever been outside you look pale
I actually haven't been outside in a long time, but Jake, I have you know that I'm going to be going outside a lot more now.
And that's a Jake made an important point because when it comes to these fights, he made an important point about the people want to see it. And that's very valuable.
So it's not as easy as people think to just fight. There's a whole bunch of promotion behind it and things must be done, etc. Because if it was that easy, like I said, Jake and I could spar, of course, but that video would be worth millions of dollars. So we can't just throw it on Twitter for free because the whole world wants to see it.
I mean, I'd be up for it, but I understand Jake's a professional fighter. And when you're a prize fighter, you want a prize, right?
I know we should, I mean, we can still spar like that'd be fun anyways. And maybe we put like little clips out and not the whole thing or give people a little teaser or something. I don't know. We'll, we'll figure it out. Well, I can't leave the house, Jake. So you know where I am. I'm not going anywhere. I'm here. Jake, you know, they're, they're asking, they're going to ask, um, still anything updates on fighting KSI? Are you, would you used to be down to fight him? Is that still a thing that's going to happen?
been for a long time and i think everyone can see that and he's the one that has always had an excuse with music or touring um and then he wants to drain the weight down to 180 pounds which i agreed to if he wanted to do winner takes all for all the money and so he says okay sure we'll do winner takes all he says it on twitter and then we go behind the scenes for the negotiations with
so all like only an extra million dollars um so then there's like a weight thing going back and forth
And it just seems to me that he doesn't want to get it done.
Are Logan and KSI really close, or is it all just a weird promotional thing?
I think it's it's.
They're like acquaintances.
Okay.
It is like this.
weird thing, but they both kind of like joke about that. Like I've seen Logan be like, yeah, we're best friends, like and kind of say it, say it jokingly.
Um...
But obviously they're business partners and that whole entire thing. So.
and
Yeah, interesting. I just thought I'd ask and
I have nothing against Logan either. I think a lot of people think I have a problem with Logan. I don't have problems with anybody. I live with a pure heart. I'm a happy man. But I just thought they'd be, I was just curious about that. Because when KSI is running his mouth to you, I'm like, why is Logan not punching him in the face? What the fuck?
Yeah, business, I guess, is business. It is it is weird. It puts me in a weird spot because like, I don't know how to feel about it. I personally don't like it because it's like that here's this guy that constantly is dragging me down, constantly jumping at every opportunity to pull me down and to defame me and to say anything bad about me. And then my brother's like acting like he's best friends with them. And that even when people ask like, oh, I'm not going to be a good person.
you know they asked logan like oh who would you pick in the fight and logan's like
oh i don't know that would be tough for me like
No, it's really not. Wait, wait, wait. So when you ask, he eventually says, like, well, I would have to pick Jake. But he plays both sides, definitely. And it does get annoying. But it's like I also respect his hustle as an entrepreneur and as a businessman because he –
you know created this multi-billion dollar company now with his enemy and i can't hate on that i want my brother to accomplish his goals and i want i'm happy for him and he's so successful and doing amazing and to me that's i'm just proud of him i'm proud to
be related to him, I'm happy for him, but definitely it
hurts me sometimes seeing that for sure.
What age do you think you're retired, Jake?
Man, I have no idea. I want to be world champion and that really is my goal and to prove to
anyone that I actually can do it. And to go from a Disney Channel kid who, you know, was not in the gym at all to a world champion, I think, um,
would be a remarkable story. And I think it would inspire a lot of other kids to chase their dreams, no matter how wild or crazy or sensational that they are. So that's my goal. And I think I could do it in the next.
three four years so probably maybe retire when i'm like 30.
Hey, can I ask you guys a question real quick when you guys are fighting like do you guys did you guys develop like any problems from it like brain damage or anything like that like does it like
You're like you guys develop any like physical issues.
Thank you.
Well, you can be unfortunate and you can be unlucky. And that's the whole thing about fighting. It's why it's so universally respected.
And I even said, I even said this to KSI. I said it when he, then he replied something stupid because he's low IQ. And I said, ultimately at the end of the day, anybody who interested the ring to a degree I respect because you're putting your ego on the line and you're also putting your health on the line. It's pretty as close as you can get to the gladiator pit in modern times. And I know people who have entered the ring and, and unfortunately they've exited and they've never been the same. And some of them are my teammates and some of them are my opponents. And it's sad always. And it's,
Yeah, bad things can happen in there. It's real. I've been very fortunate and I wish there was a world in which nobody ever picked up any kind of damage from it. But it's a real possibility you have to keep in mind every time you're training for a fight. So yeah, it's scary.
Gotcha.
I think lean is worse for your brain than boxing though.
Facts, man. That's why I kicked the cup.
Had to, Jake.
Are you still with Ami?
Thank you.
This is really crazy, bro. I can't, bro. I'm not going to lie. I can't get away from lean. Why? You know I'm not. You know I'm not, Jake.
I know you're not.
It's been a while since we talked. What do you mean? Like actually like a month ago. Well, like a heart to heart. Yeah, true. Yeah.
um no i'm not i'm not i'm not jake no
No.
Yeah, well this YouTube boxing thing I think is a fantastic opportunity for a bunch of people who are constantly just talking shit to each other to actually do something about it. And I think if people have a genuine issue with each other, then they should fight and sort it out. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I think that's the best thing about it. And it's interesting to hear what Jake's saying about KSI not wanting to fight him because I think that's the fight everybody would really want to see. I think that's going to be the biggest one.
Perhaps one of the biggest ones you can make right now.
for sure for sure and i've done everything i can to make it happen multiple multiple times um but at some point he has to step up to the plate and i think at some point it has to happen just for the culture and i know he wants it it's just a matter of timing and
all things considered. We'll see whose corner Logan's in. Hopefully he's in the right corner because, you know, brotherhood is the most important thing. And I think he would, I'd like to believe he would choose you, of course, when push came to shove.
Yeah, no, I think deep down he wants me to win 100%, but it's just the way he presents that sometimes. And that's what's weird about it for me is he's the one who, when he lost to KSI, he's like, you have to go beat him. And that's really at first what motivated me a lot to get into the gym and train so hard.
really affecting him and he was like he kind of like bestowed this thing on me to like go get
our family's name back. And so then that's why it's like confusing for me the situation that they're really in. Is Logan there now?
No, no. I mean, he's in Puerto Rico, but he's not at the house right now.
I was going to say hello.
Ha ha ha.
Nate Diaz is here.
actually in puerto rico he's a he's like in the other house over here have you seen him training
Um,
Can we get him? Yeah.
Oh, shit.
I can get him. I can get him. Nate's there? Whoa, whoa, whoa, Andrew, I'm a big fan of Diaz brothers, bro. Holy fuck. I think I'm going to fan out, I think. Good. Good. They deserve respect. They train very hard. They're legends of the sport. Andrew, could you introduce me to them, please? Yes.
I don't know them. I've never spoke to them before. Why would I introduce you? Oh, okay.
Thank you.
Introduce yourself. Alright, you're right, you're right, I got this. We need to get nervous over a fucking stream. Look at a computer screen. I'm sorry, right, my bad, my bad. You're a nerd, bro. Hey, shut up, dude. You were...
Thank you.
Let's see if Nate's there.
oh with that fuckers
.
.
Thank you.
God damn it!
Thank you.
*sniff*
Off you go, Aiden. You said you were nervous. Go on. Hey, I'm a big fan, bro. I'm a big fan.
I don't give a fuck pussy.
I heard you like Jake Paul.
I love Jake. That's my brother. But who do you think is going to win the fight?
I got to go with my brother Jake, man. I'm going to ride for my bro.
Fuck you, man.
No, Mr. D. as well.
You're lucky we won in person. I'll Stockton slap the shit off you, bitch. Mr. Diaz, I'm a big fan. You don't understand.
Mr. Diaz, can I have a picture?
Now,
You're lucky I'm even on your bitch-ass stream.
Damn, bro. The fuck?
I'm a big fan, bro. I just want a picture, please. What the fuck about you?
Bam. Is that really how it would go down, Andrew?
Thank you.
Well, by the way, thanks for having my back.
Sorry about that. Dude, I thought he was in a bad mood.
Yeah, he's in a bad mood.
Ah, man. You know what? For a second, I kind of believe that. And because...
And I'll tell you why. I'm from, I'm a bit older, right? I'm 36. I retired when I was 30, just like you said. And when I was fighting, when I was 24, 25, it was before social media. So I'd turn up to fights and I didn't even know who I was fighting. Now it's all about who the person is and promo, et cetera. I turn up to a fight in Russia or Moscow. And I'd say to my coach, who am I fighting? And obviously all the Russian names are in Cyrillic. And we're like, maybe him, maybe him, maybe him. We don't know until you get in the ring. And it's always the guy you, it's the biggest of them all, of course, the one you hope it's the guy.
not but uh there was times where yeah i was training in the same place as the guy i was fighting or i heard the guy was or me and the guy i was fighting were warming up in the same room
In Slovenia. So there's been times that that shit happened in the old school of the fight days. Hey, Jake, what do you think is going to happen in the DS fight?
Man, I think he's going to be tough, but...
Um,
I'm feeling so sharp right now. I brought in a new team, new strength and conditioning coaches, new nutritionists. So this is the best I've ever felt.
And I'm getting better and better as the rounds go on. So I could see me stopping him in like the sixth or seventh round.
I just think he's not going to be able to keep up with my speed and power.
okay so you're very confident are you gonna bet on it i am i'm gonna put a hundred thousand dollars on you
On God.
on God.
I want to see a screenshot of that bet, Aiden. I will. I'm going to post it. Yo, when I put $100,000 on you, Jake, and you secure my money,
You know, I'll take you out. We'll go out. Take you out. Take me on a date, bro. Exactly.
And Andrew can go with us.
unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances i'm not allowed to leave my house so i'm gonna miss it uh but i'll just stay here and i hope you guys have fun
I'm on month six of house arrest so far, and we'll see how long this continues for. So I'm going to have to miss it, unfortunately.
Damn.
so um that's there's already been six months do you do a lot of do you like have
The girls over, do you like do a lot of jerking off?
Are you talking to me?
Yeah. Yeah. I have the odd visitor, Jake, and I don't jerk off because it's Haram and God is always watching. So that's not something I partake in. I'm allowed visitors. I just didn't know how it was with house arrest, like if you could have visitors or not. Yeah, I am allowed. I am allowed visitors. You know, you actually helped me stop masturbating because every time that I would masturbate, I would think of you. And I'd be like, no, this is not right. I'm going to stop. What the fuck?
this shit now. No, for real, you put it in my brain. I haven't done it in months, swear to God.
I swear to God, I haven't done that shit in months, bro. Thank you for actually stopping that porn addiction. Fuck porn.
Thank you.
I don't know how men can be addicted to porn. I don't understand. You must have very few options in your life to find yourself addicted to porn.
I mean, every guy's jacked off in their life before, bro.
Thank you.
But if you're, I'm talking about a porn addiction, you make it sound like it's something you can't help doing. You must have very few options if you end up addicted to porn.
Yeah, true.
I've only been really, really severely been addicted to lean. It's bad, bro.
Mm-hmm.
You
Hey, Jake, Jake, I got stabbed by a knife before. Do you want to see it?
-
You know, Jake, I swear to God.
What happened?
I was sleeping, right? And my uncle, he was on meth, and he stabbed me in my sleep.
or like just no reason or he was mad at you or something? Oh, he was on drugs. He thought I worked for the FBI.
No.
Yeah, it's funny. What the hell, Jake?
No, there's just this shit you say. It's just like, I don't know if you're like special or what, but it's just crazy. Oh, it's actually funny you say that, Jake.
Andrew, I actually figured this out by myself. I'm definitely off in some way. I believe that I'm autistic or like on the spectrum of autism or something. No, no, I'm not even joking. I'll shit aside. I appreciate you not laughing, Andrew. And Jake, I don't know why you're laughing. I'm pretty sure I'm autistic. I can't at you.
I'm gonna be with you.
You're just an outrageous individual.
Really?
We have people.
I don't know.
I can't do this.
you
Thank you.
Thank you.
What?
Yeah.
It's us again, me and you.
Hey, Andrew.
Listen, bro.
You know I love you, right? I want some real shit, you're like my big bro.
Thank you.
I mean, this is where you're supposed to say, I love you too. You're like my little brother.
You're not like my little brother at all, because my little brother is a man of upstanding moral character, hard work, discipline. You're none of those things. I do have a little brother, and he's a fantastic individual, and you are absolutely nothing like him. If he wasn't a fantastic individual, he wouldn't be able to be my brother. If I had a brother who was addicted to lean, I'd kick the fuck out of him.
Fair enough.
It's okay, Jake.
.
So Jake, how much money do you think it would make if you and I fought?
you
Thank you.
What's your price? What's your price so people can start bidding on it now? Probably like 1.5 million pay-per-view buys at like $60. So like 90 million just in pay-per-views. And then probably like another $5 million in gate. And then like $10 million in sponsorships.
so like 105 million
100 million you guys would fight? No, I'm just trying to calculate. Because if I were to fight Jake, I'd have to take it very seriously. It'd be a six-month training camp. I'd have to go to the mountains of Bosnia and not do much else. So, yeah, about 100 million.
That's quite a lot of money. I don't know how much these YouTube fights make so far. Like, I don't know which one's been biggest or how much they've made or... But I do think me and Jake would be probably the biggest pull.
You know what's crazy? I'm not even joking. I don't even know who I'd vote for.
You guys are both like my boys.
Who would you bet on, Aiden? God damn it. Fuck!
Um, I really, it just depends who's, who's training harder. That's really all it's about. I said this right now. I'm a big vocal about it. I don't care if anyone doesn't like it right now. If Jake and KSI got in the ring, Jake's winning. If KSI,
whoever trains harder...
would be the winner. I believe if KSI and Jake got in the ring right now, Jake would win. And that doesn't mean that if KSI doesn't train harder, he has, you know what I mean? That's all I'm saying. It's all about how hard you train.
So with that being said, if Tate trains harder, Tate will win. If Jake trains harder, Tate will win.
Jake will win. That's a cop-out answer.
It is.
I think we should do it regardless.
We should definitely do the sparring session just for even if the video never gets released just so between Jake and I we can You know have it'll be fun. It could be relatively light-hearted, but just between Jake and I it'll be done just for for you
Our own, sometimes everything's not about clout, and it's not always about the internet, and it's not always about views. Sometimes it's just, you know.
two guys and we're like you know what it we talked about it a few times let's put some gloves on and let's try regardless of what happened i think it should be mma because that would
pique more people's interest and it would make things way more interesting. I think that that's what we should do if we're going to do it.
Do you train MMA now or are you still only training boxing? No, I'm only training boxing. But I could start, you know, like if we really were going to do it, like you said, it would be like six months to a year and just focusing on that.
Interesting. Let me ask you another question. Let me ask you another question. Sorry, I cut you off, Mr. Tate. So if I were...
Let me ask you a question. How much would you guys want to get paid?
to do to do a spar.
Live.
I mean, if we're going to, yeah, like you're going to spar, you're going to fight. I mean, what's the difference? Yeah, exactly.
- Oh, I see. - It's the same, yeah.
Yeah.
Thank you.
I was saying sparring just for, I don't know. I'm sure Jake has plenty of sparring partners, but if you wanted a new one, he's very welcome to at my house. No problem. I'd love to.
I, once you're a fighter, you always want to fight. You never go, you never get to an age where you don't want to fight anymore. You never wake up and go, ah, I don't want to fight anymore. It's something that's inside of you and it's always inside of you. And the hardest thing about fighting is actually retiring. It's knowing when you should quit.
It's very addicting and like fun and something to keep your mind occupied and just like the glory, the training, the challenge, like everything about it is really fun. So is it addicting to like once you're a boxer to like...
The feeling of it? Yeah, 100%. 100%. And the hard thing is knowing when to stop, because if you go on too long, you have a bunch of losses at the end of your career, and then you want to retire, then you want to come out of retirement and do it again. It takes a lot of mental control to decide to stop. I decided when I was in my early 20s, I was going to retire at a certain age, and I stuck to that, and I finished on a win streak for that reason, because...
Otherwise, it can easily go wrong and you can ruin your legacy, etc. It's not easy to do. It's very hard, but you're always going to want to fight. That's the thing when you're a fighter. When someone says, I'll fight you, part of you is always going to be like, okay, come on then, fight me. It's just something that's inside of you. It's never going to go away.
It's unfortunate that time marches on. Someone once, very smart, said to me that years come. What do they say? It's been a year since it's been a year. Something very intelligent and insightful. I can't remember who it was. It was a philosopher. I think he was on. Yeah, I love that one. It's been a year since it's been a year. Yeah, it's great. Ever since I heard that, it was really mind-blowing. And unfortunate time marches on and we all get a bit older. So there has come a point where you decide to stop. But I'm really not that old. I talk about myself like I'm old. 36 isn't old.
Thank you.
In 10 years, you're about to be 50, bro. It's kind of crazy. In 10 years, I'm going to be 46. I wonder if I'll still be on house arrest.
Hopefully not.
Who knows?
Aiden, did your uncle go to jail for stabbing you? I didn't press charges. Well, he went to jail, and then I said, hey, I'm not going to press charges. And then he went to a mental asylum.
Thank you.
What's the most traumatic thing you've ever been through Jake? I'm just I'm genuinely curious.
Thank you.
Good.
Oh, man, I've been through a lot of shit in my career, to be honest.
I'm trying to think of the...
I don't know if I can name like one thing specifically, like there's like a whole jumble of things.
Who's Erica? They're saying Erica.
Erica.
Oh, my ex?
My ex ex.
Thank you.
yeah i've been through i've been through a lot of fallouts with people and like crazy lawsuits like whenever whenever i was the
the biggest like youtuber it felt like the world was like caving in on me because everyone just wanted to like strip me down and see me fail and make up rumors like it was like a giant giant target on my back and every day there was something new to deal with mentally i think that was like the toughest
Toughest part of my life.
Gotcha.
Have you been canceled before Aiden? When were you canceled? What for? I was recently canceled for saying there was two genders in the world.
I got canceled for that.
I got banned on Twitch for that specific reason. I think that's when they started to like not fuck with me. Um,
So that's my recent cancellation.
I believe there's been more shit.
Interesting. Have you ever been to jail?
Have I ever been to jail? No, I have not been to jail, sir.
Try and avoid it if you can.
Do your best.
Okay. Jake, have you ever been to jail or no? No.
There you go. So good and I don't wish upon anybody. There's no need to go there, but I was just curious.
Yeah.
I'm on my best behavior. I'm on my best behavior. Like lately, I've kept my nose out of trouble for like two, three years now. And I think that's because of boxing. Like I'm just always focused and it's helped me like mature and stuff. So.
Thank you.
I have a question, which I find interesting. If you lost the next five fights in a row, would you retire?
Oh, wow. That would be pretty traumatic. But at the same time, like,
Man, I've already exceeded my own expectations in the sport. So I'm happy with where I've gotten, regardless of what happens moving forward.
to even just beat some of these legends, some of my idols, Anderson Silva, to win knockout of the year, cover of Sports Illustrated. Like, I've accomplished my goals.
and beyond um and i love this sport and it's changed my life for the better so i think i'll always be boxing
even if it's just staying in shape in the gym. But I'll always be a promoter. I have my foundation, Boxing Bullies, which is opening up gyms across the United States and all these places for underprivileged kids to go in and be able to box for free. We're up to seven gyms now in less than two years.
So I just love the sport, man. It changed my life for the better and pulled me out of some dark places. So I'll always definitely box, yeah.
I have more questions I'm probably not supposed to ask, but I'm going to ask them anyway. Do you genuinely dislike Dana? Is that beef real?
Yeah, no, the beef is definitely real. The beef is definitely real, 100%. And I think...
I don't know him as a person, so I can't say whether or not I dislike him for who he is in real life, but I dislike his business tactics. I dislike that, you know,
fighters only get paid 15% of the total revenue. I dislike that he has a monopoly, basically, in MMA, and that the fighters are the ones...
who lose from that and these fighters are putting their health on the line they're risking everything um you know it's the toughest sport in the world they're paying their own coaches they're paying their own gym fees and all these other sports nfl nba they get everything paid for and they make more money so really he's been able to take advantage of fighters and that's what i don't like and even the fighter minimum you know the the fighter getting paid
$12,500
to go in there. That's the minimum that UFC fighters get paid. So they're risking their life basically for $12,000.
And if he just increased that to $50,000, it would change so many fighters' lives.
And
It would only cost the UFC annually $15 million, but...
these fighters would be able to actually afford being able to be full-time fighters. So yes, he's made a lot of money. He's changed the sport. I love what he's done for MMA. He's made the sport massive. But now it's time to
treat fighters better and that's that's my biggest problem with him do you think you'd still fight if so my first fight i got paid 150 do you think you'd still fight if you were like not famous and you had to start the bottom and the money was zero and you were still working a job and you were training after the job like your first 20 fights you got paid basically nothing and do you think you'd still do it
Yeah, I believe my life would have probably always led me
to fighting.
I truly believe it. It feels like what I was destined to do.
Um,
it's it's who I am deep down is a fighter so
Well, I can tell you're taking it seriously. I genuinely wish you the best. I've said it even before we started talking. I wish you the best. I can tell you're taking it seriously. And that's what fighting's for. And I respect anybody who gets in the ring. And I hope you win. I hope you do very well. And I don't know Nick. And I'm sure he's training very hard as well.
It's going to, oh, sorry, Nate. It's going to be, uh...
Interesting to see, that's for sure, that's for sure.
I got a question.
do you tell me furry is that is the rematch ever gonna happen would you guys ever fight again
Um, for sure.
Yeah, there's talks behind the scenes of it. I know he wants to do it. And it only makes sense, right? It's one of the biggest pay-per-view fights of the last couple of years. And it was a split decision victory on his end. So I think we need to go back in there and leave no doubt.
and really settle it.
Gotcha.
