Dana White recently let rip at Jake Paul’s manager, who was apparently a former UFC employee, calling him a “warlock.”

The UFC president has been publicly exchanging shots with Paul over the Christmas period and things went up a notch on new years day when ‘The Problem Child’ claimed he would retire from boxing if White made some changes to the way he does business.

White issued a video response to Paul, who he insisted was too stupid to write the post about fighter pay and health care. The UFC boss then began to take aim at Paul’s manager who was apparently one of his old accountants.

“That thing that you came out with today, nobody on earth thinks that you really wrote that. You’re too stupid,” White said. “And for those of you that don’t know, if you’ve ever watched one of his fights and you see the staredown, the guy that’s standing in the middle with the warlock nose and the big wart on his face, apparently that’s his manager. That guy used to be an accountant for me and let’s just say this: He no longer works for me, and I think he’s a scumbag.

“But, if you two think that you can do it better than we do, we’re doing the whole thing wrong and you’re treating the fighters better than we do: Knock yourself out. Go start your own business. It’s easy to do. Get the warlock on it. The warlock can get it started for you. What you and the warlock should be focused on is your business.

Who Is The ‘Warlock’ Dana White Is Referring To?

Who is Nakisa Bidarian? And why is Dana White taking shots at him? Nakisa Bidaria worked as Chief Financial Officer / Executive Vice President of Strategy & Business Ventures for the UFC from October 2011 to December 2016. According to Paul, Bidarian was a pivotal player in the $4 billion deal that saw the UFC get sold to Endeavour.

Since leaving the promotion, Bidarian has worked with Triller and was one of the executive producers of the Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones Jr. event that his client Paul featured on.

In January 2021, Bidarian co-founded Most Valuable Promotions who oversee all of Paul’s fights. Until now he has been able to keep a relatively low profile despite being closely linked to one of the most divisive figures in combat sports.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer has outlined his main goals for the new year. 

Jake Paul had one hell of a year in 2021.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer continued to rile up the combat sports world and remained unbeaten as a professional, scoring two violent viral knockouts of Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley. Paul has since announced a sabbatical from boxing to focus on promoting a fight between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano in 2022, but that is not the only goal he has set for himself in the new year.

Paul took to Twitter on Friday with a list of goals, and it includes some serious chiropractic adjustments for what he has done for the sport in recent months.

“Some people are asking about my 2022 goals, wrote Paul. “Here they are:

1. Buy Mayweather Promotions and save them from bankruptcy

2. Hire stylist for Floyd Mayweather

3. Take selfie with Oprah

4. Go [to] chiropractor [to] heal back from carrying the sport of boxing.”

Two of four goals are geared towards Floyd Mayweather Jr., with whom the ‘Problem Child’ shares some history. Paul has campaigned for a fight against Mayweather and trolled the legendary boxer on several occasions. His most infamous attempt came this past June during a media event for an exhibition opposite of his older brother, Logan.

Paul swiped the hat Mayweather was wearing, incited a brawl between both teams and turned the moment into limited-edition merchandise known as the ‘Gotcha Hat’, which was all part of a premeditated plan. Though the plan was a success, Paul has been unable to turn it into a lucrative outing with Mayweather (yet).

When Paul returns to the ring, he has a few options to consider. The 24-year-old has requested UFC fighters Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal to be his next opponent, but would also welcome boxers Canelo Alvarez and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. instead.

Jake Paul: ‘Steroid Test Me Whenever The F*ck You Want’

Jake Paul claims he accepted Dana White’s drug test challenge and accused the UFC boss of ducking the points he made in his counteroffer.

‘The Problem Child’ promised to quit boxing and sign with the UFC if they increase fighter pay and introduce long-term health care for their fighters.

White responded but disregarded Paul’s comments on fighter welfare and instead took aim at his manager, pay-per-view performances while also doubling down on his drug test off.

“Dana, I accepted every part of your challenge,” Paul replied in a video posted to Twitter. “I said I would fight Masvidal in MMA. Steroid test me whenever the f*ck you want. It is two weeks after my fight, and I am a fat b*tch. I don’t do steroids and I take it as a compliment because there’s no other excuse for me knocking out all of your champions than ‘this kid does steroids’. Look at me! Look at that (slaps stomach) – a fat bitch. If you steroid test me then I want to steroid test every one of your fighters. You won’t wanna do it though, will you?

Jake Paul Doesn’t Think Jorge Masvidal Is A PPV Superstar.

“You say Masvidal is a pay-per-view superstar – let’s go to his last Instagram post,” Paul said. “5000 likes or 10,000 likes or some sh*t. Do you realize that my mom Pam gets more likes than your pay-per-view superstars?

“You wanna talk shit about my manager? The CFO of your company that helped you sell it to Endeavour (for) $4 billion. You’re just a jealous ugly f*ck. You don’t know what true happiness is. You’re the definition of a f*cking unhappy billionaire who thought that money would make their life better. I feel bad for you.

“Long story short, you addressed nothing that I said. I accepted your challenge. I said that I would fight MMA. I said that I would retire from boxing, and you avoided all of that shit. It shows that you are a dog in a corner trying to fight to save this whole company and the embarrassment I’ve put you through. Everybody sees it and what you can’t accept or love or appreciate is that I’m trying to change the sport forever.

“You are one of the most selfish, capitalistic motherf*ckers that I’ve ever seen. And everybody else needs you Dana. I’m the only person who doesn’t need you and I don’t give a f*ck about you. All these people, all your fighters they can’t say sh*t ‘cause you’ll just bench them. You met your maker. I’m not gonna stop. Welcome to the show ladies and gentlemen.

“The bottom-line Dana is that you won’t add health care for your fighters because you don’t give a f*ck about them. You’re too much of a greedy b*tch to pay your minimum fighter more than $12,000 for risking their lives. It’s what a janitor makes. You need to pay them $50,000, Dana. Stop avoiding my points.”

Do you think Jake Paul has some good points?

Ciryl Gane Admits Francis Ngannou Sparring Footage Made Him Look Good

Ciryl Gane

Ciryl Gane has admitted that the recently released footage from his past sparring session with Francis Ngannou made him look good and is not necessarily a representation of how their training scraps would go.

The UFC heavyweight champion took issue with the above sparring footage which he claimed had been “manipulated” to make him look bad.

In a recent interview with French media outlet La Sueur, Gane suggested that Ngannou’s issue with the leaked sparring footage was justified.

“It’s true that in that clip – I’m not going to lie – it was a soft sparring and I could confidently develop my game,” Gane said. “There were other sparring sessions where he [Francis Ngannou] had more the edge. One time it was me, one time it was him. To say that he was far ahead, no, it’s not necessarily true. But it’s true that this particular clip made me look good.”

Ciryl Gane Thinks Francis Ngannou Is The Strongest Fighter In UFC History

The former teammates turned enemies will unify the heavyweight division at UFC 270 on January 22.

Ahead of the eagerly anticipated match-up, Gane spoke about how he will approach fighting Ngannou who he rates as one of the best athletes the UFC has ever seen.

“You know we’re coming into this fight with our own strengths,” Gane explained. “We’re not here to try and counter his strengths. We don’t want to try and be stronger than him. Till today, I’ve never seen anyone as powerful, as athletic, [and] with such knockout power. I’ve never seen it. In terms of strength, Francis might be the most impressive guy in UFC history. I’m not going to try to become stronger than him in three months. It wouldn’t make sense.” (Transcribed by Sportskeeda)

Who do you think will win the heavyweight unification fight at UFC 270? Francis Ngannou or Ciryl Gane?

Dana White Still Wants To Test ‘Cheater’ Jake Paul

In December, White hit back at Paul who has frequently suggested the UFC president has a drug problem. White said he was willing to allow the YouTuber to drug test him for cocaine if he can drug test Paul for steroids. During his response to Paul, White noted that the 24-year-old had skipped over his original challenge.

“You never responded to the challenge,” White said in a video posted to Instagram. “You publicly stated that I use cocaine. I do not. So I told you, you could randomly cocaine test me for the next 10 years. I believe that you’re a cheater and I believe that you use steroids, so I want to randomly steroid test you for the next two years.

“And that thing that you came out with today, nobody on earth thinks that you really wrote that. You’re too stupid. And for those of you that don’t know, if you’ve ever watched one of his fights and you see the staredown, the guy that’s standing in the middle with the warlock nose and the big wart on his face, apparently that’s his manager. That guy used to be an accountant for me and let’s just say this: He no longer works for me, and I think he’s a scumbag.

It’s easy to do. Get the warlock on it. The warlock can get it started for you. What you and the warlock should be focused on is your business.

You’re tanking. You can’t sell pay-per-views. You’re calling out Jorge Masvidal because he’s a pay-per-view superstar. Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor, Mike Tyson – these are all superstars. You’re not. You can’t sell pay-per-views. So you do whatever the hell you want to do. I’m ready to roll, buddy. I don’t use cocaine. Do you use steroids? Let’s do this Jake. (Transcribed by MMA Junkie)
