Ever since he scored a nasty knockout victory over former NBA star Nate Robinson, Paul (2-0) has been busy calling out some of the biggest names in mixed martial arts.

The YouTuber initially took aim at Conor McGregor and UFC President Dana White, but has since turned his attention towards Dillon Danis, Michael Bisping and Ben Askren.

Dana White responded to Jake Paul’s callouts by suggesting that he would send Amanda Nunes to knock him out. ‘The Lioness’ appeared to onboard with the idea but unfortunately Jake Paul is having none of it.

In a recent interview with TMZ Sports, Paul shot down the idea of fighting Nunes because “no one knows who she is”.

“Nah, I wouldn’t fight her,” Jake said. “Waste of time. No one knows who she is.”

Nunes (20-4 MMA) is set to return at UFC 259 where she will put her featherweight gold on the line against Megan Anderson.
