Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping has revealed that he received an offer to face Jake Paul in a boxing match.
Paul returns to the ring on August 5 when he takes on former UFC fighter Nate Diaz live on DAZN PPV in what will be his first fight since losing to Tommy Fury earlier this year.
But after receiving what he deemed as a poor offer from Paul, Bisping could not help but criticise 'The Problem Child' for the opponents he has faced since making his professional boxing debut in January 2020.
“The sooner we shut up and stop talking about the little coward Jake Paul, the better it is. Jake Paul sent a contract to my management asking me to box him a while ago," Bisping told Betway.
“I said ‘yeah sure’ if you up the offer a little bit. And then guess what, we never heard back from him because he's a little p—y and he's picking off smaller guys and non boxers.
“The one time he fought a boxer, Tommy Fury, he lost. Is he going after the rematch?
"No. He fights Nate Diaz who is almost 40 and is not a boxer. He can box a little bit, but is a smaller guy that used to fight at 155 pounds.”
