Jake Paul trolls Conor McGregor and Dee Devlin as he offers UFC star $50million fight

Jake Paul claims he has offered Conor McGregor $50million to fight him in a boxing bout as he trolled the Dubliner and his fiancee in a video posted online.

The YouTube star knocked out former NBA player Nate Robinson on the undercard of Mike Tyson v Roy Jones Jr last month to take his boxing record to 2-0.

Paul called McGregor out after the win, but UFC President Dana White has since stated that a fight between them won't be happening any time soon.

The Notorious returns to UFC action next month against Dustin Poirier in his first bout in over a year, but he now appears to have another fight offer for 2021.

Speaking in a video online, Paul hit out at McGregor and Dee Devlin.

He said: “My team sent you a $50 million offer this morning – $50 million cash, proof of funds – the biggest offer you’ve ever been offered. But you’re still scared to fight me, Conor. You’re ducking me ‘cause you don’t want to lose to a f***ing YouTuber.

"You’re 0-1 as a boxer. I’m 2-0 as a boxer. I just came off the eighth biggest pay-per-view event in history, but you want to fight Dustin ‘Prober’ who has less followers on Instagram than my f***ing dog – that’s a fact."

Paul also responded to White's recent comments, adding: “Conor, you’re scared. Dana, you’re scared. Sign the f***ing contract, you idiots. Jesus f***ng Christ...Irish b****...f*** these guys.”

McGregor's longtime rival Nate Diaz was among those to slam Paul over the video.

He tweeted: "Jake Paul you need your ass beat for free you spoiled f*** you can’t really fight dumbs*** your gonna end up with your ass whooped for real somewhere talking like that."
