UFC CEO Dana White and Jake Paul accused each other of abusing fabrics at the start of Paul's boxing career.
Dana White and Jake Paul are two of the most polarizing personalities in combat sports. Paul's boxing career is just as divided as everyone in the history of sport, and the refusal of White to be censored sometimes leads to wild verbal exchanges.
Paul has repeatedly criticized White and the UFC for how they do business; The most specific about the issue of hunter payments. Moreover, Paul claimed that White Cocaine uses, without evidence to support the statement.
After Paul White challenged him to offer him a UFC fight in exchange for ending his boxing career, White offered a wild counter offer while he returned to the cocaine claims.

Dana White and Jake Paul's VEGE started with a bizarre social media challenge
White went to Paul in a social media post from 2022.
“Jake, you never responded to the challenge,” said White. “You have publicly stated that I use cocaine, I don't do that. So I told you that you could test me randomly in the coming ten years. I believe you are a cheater and I believe you are using steroids, so I want random steroids to test for the next two years.
“And that thing you came up with today? Nobody on earth thinks you really wrote that, you are too stupid … His manager, that guy was an accountant for me, and let's just say this – he no longer works for me and I think [the UFC]We are doing this whole thing wrong, you can treat the hunters better than us, knock -out knockout! Start your own company! Get the 'Warlock' [Nakisa Bidarian] on top.
“You fill, you can't sell pay-per-views. You call Jorge Masvidal because he is a pay-per-view superster. Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor, Mike Tyson, these are all superstars. And you are not … I don't use cocaine, do you use steroids? Jake.”
Paul had to answer the allegations of steroids during his polarizing boxing career. After White's counter offer, neither of them agreed with the conditions and Paul continued his run in boxing.
Paul has defeated various former employees of White, including former UFC champions Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva. White placed $ 1 million on Ben Askren to beat Paul in their boxing match in 2021, and Paul continued to eliminate Askren in the first round.

Dana White advised Mike Tyson against accepting Jake Paul Boxing Match
In anticipation of Paul's last boxing match against heavyweight, legend Mike Tyson, White Tyson tried to send away from return to the ring. Paul then beat the 58-year-old Tyson by unanimous decision in a fight that ran far from expectations.
Paul will return to the boxing ring against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. later this month. In his first fight since the Tyson victory. Since he suffers his first professional loss to Tommy Fury in 2023, Paul has won five consecutive fights, including victories over Mike Perry and former UFC-Superster Nate Diaz.
Although tensions have been reduced in recent years, Paul and White will probably never be lovable, but do not expect their bad blood to escalate in more obscure challenges.
