Tate said, “There was a time where I called out Jake Paul… It’s when Jake first called out Conor [McGregor], I think this was like 4-5 years ago. I said, ‘Jake I’ll fight you.’ I remember saying it to him and at the time I wasn’t nearly as known as I’m known and then since then, I’ve made it very clear also to the world that I said that ‘Jake, I believe is the best YouTub Boxer. I believe he can beat them all and I think he’s training very hard and a fight against Jake will be a real fight and I do believe that he’s working hard in the gym and he’s more of a boxer than he is a YouTuber now. I Don’t think we’re going to fight. Especially, due to my legal situation now. I can’t even leave my house.“

Paul suggests to Tate that even if it is not with himself, Tate should find an opponent. ‘Top G’ even agrees to it claiming that it would make ‘a bunch of money’.
Paul said, “If we could ever figure it out. I would be down to do MMA or boxing either. Like the PFL would make it happen. So if you ever figure out the situation, I think it would be huge.“
