“Can’t afford the big boys”- Jorge Masvidal slams Jake Paul after his Tyron Woodley PPV stats are revealed

Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley 2 PPV buys were revealed and it’s safe to say that it flopped big time and probably the reason is that the Paul vs Fury fight which was scheduled ahead of time fell through as Tommy Fury backed out with a bacterial chest infection and a broken rib.

Jorge Masvidal took to Twitter to mock ‘The Problem Child’ as he made just below 65,000 pay-per-view buys in his rematch against Woodley and labelled him as a ‘fake’. According to DAZN writer Steven Muehlhausen, the sales made wasn’t even bought by 65,000 people. He said that the numbers were even below ‘All Elite’s Wresting’ show from November.

Earlier this year, Jake had claimed that his fight with Ben Askren had made over 1 million PPV’s, so that compared to how much he made in the recent rematch is a huge disappointment.

Masvidal took this opportunity to take a dig at Jake tweeting “B** boy can’t afford the big boys. Never again do I want to hear my name associated with the fake. 3 0 5 day is coming #supernecessary’.”

In reply to Masvidal’s shoot down where he said that he won’t fight Jake Paul because he is neither the best nor does he make enough money, the unbeaten Paul offered the ‘Gamebred’, $5 million purses along with a percentage of the PPV buys on his older brother’s podcast, Impulsive.

“Masvidal, I’ve got an offer for you right now. $5m guarantee, plus percentage of pay-per-views. That’s the most you would have ever made in a fight, ever. So now you can’t say, ‘I either fight the best, or I fight for money’. Let’s make it happen.”

Masvidal shot down Jake Paul‘s offer on a social media post commenting, “The UFC isn’t going to let me go for chump change. Make that 20 guaranteed plus PPV and I’m sure the UFC will be ok with it as long as I break them off their fee and then I’ll gladly break your face. If the UFC still says no because the money is still too low, then come over to the UFC, sign a one-fight deal and we can stipulate I can only box in the cage.”

Dana White however soon shut down any chance of Jorge Masvidal singing a fight with Jake Paul.
