Jake Paul uses Mike Perry’s own words in sparring video to shoot down possible fight

Jake Paul is on top of the world right now. Last night he backed up his bravado, putting Ben Askren down and out inside of a round at Triller Fight Club’s latest event in Atlanta. As expected, a bunch of fighters called out Paul following his win, likely looking for the same lucrative payday Askren took home. And to beat up a loudmouth combat sports interloper.

One top UFC fighter took to social media as well to suggest a fight, but it wasn’t with himself. Dustin Poirier, while responding to UFC play-by-play guy Jon Anik, wants to see Jake box a divisive UFC fighter who sparred with Paul in the lead-up to the Askren matchup - Mike Perry.

Paul, as he usually does, responded to the callout. But he did it in a rather unique way - he posted a sparring session video between himself and Perry where Perry actually says “you kicked my ass” to him. And then calls out Poirier in the process:

I hate to admit this, but that’s a pretty good response. Paul doesn’t know who he wants to fight next as of yet, but there are no shortage of options for the 24-year-old. Paul moved to 3-0 as a pro boxer with the KO win over Askren.
