Javier Mendez believes that Dana White would welcome the opportunity to work with Jake Paul.
The charismatic YouTuber has unleashed several criticisms at the UFC president in recent months with the subject of his frustration being better pay for fighters within White’s thriving organisation.
Despite being a newcomer to the combat sport arena, Paul is looking to change both boxing and MMA, as well as competing in events.
One alteration he’s desperate to enforce is increased purses for combatants, and White has been his main target. Although the pair have been critical of each other, Mendez believes White is secretly a fan of Paul.
“If it makes business sense for Dana then he’ll do it,” revealed Mendez when speaking with Betway.
“Dana is a mastermind of creating news in the media, he’s a master at it. Even the thing with Jake Paul, you know he has his war with Jake Paul, but behind closed doors he actually admires the kid and respects how he goes about getting attention.”
