Jake Paul has made his prediction for a scrap between Dana White and Eddie Hearn as he shared his thoughts on their feud. <\/p>\n

The White<\/a>–Hearn<\/a> rivalry has heated up following the recent promotional activities, including Zuffa Boxing’s acquisition of Conor Benn and Tom Aspinall joining Matchroom Talent Agency.<\/p>\n

White branded Hearn a ‘p**sy’ for his emotional reaction to Benn leaving his stable and even called him out to a boxing fight.<\/p>\n

Hearn hit back at White<\/a> and backed himself to knock out his rival promoter.<\/p>\n

Paul<\/a>‘s Most Valuable Promotions has also been a disruptor since they entered the boxing world and they plan to do the same in the MMA space, having announced their first MMA event between Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano.<\/p>\n

The launch press conference for Rousey vs. Carano took place on Tuesday, where Paul faced them off.<\/p>\n

After the presser, Paul was asked about the beef between White and Hearn and sided with the Briton in a potential fight between the promoters.<\/p>\n

On the rivalry, Paul said: “I think it’s I think it’s very entertaining. I just think it’s good content and good for both of their promotional abilities. And I think we’ll see more UFC fighters go and sign with Eddie Hearn, which I think is a very smart move on their part.”<\/p>\n

Asked who would win in a boxing fight, Paul replied: “Eddie would definitely win.”<\/p>\n

MVP co-founder Nakisa Bidarian, who has previously worked for the UFC, disagreed with Paul’s claim and tipped White to ‘destroy’ Hearn<\/p>\n

“I think Dana destroys him. Dana destroys him,” he exclaimed. <\/p>\n

“Dana knows how to box. Eddie does not know how to box. Dana, like, knows how to box.”<\/p>\n

Hearn recruiting UFC heavyweight champion Aspinall to his new agency company stoked the flames and at the press conference to announce the new addition, he was asked about White’s challenge.<\/p>\n

The 46-year-old admits he could get ‘flattened’, having seen footage of White sparring but also believes he ‘could knock him spark out’.<\/p>\n

“But I did watch a bit of footage of Dana sparring,” he said. “He’s actually not bad. He’s bit of a beast as well, isn’t he? But yeah, I do it in a heartbeat because I couldn’t say no, could I?<\/p>\n

“Also there is so much money in that fight. I would get paid an absolute fortune. So, I would have to do it anyway. But on all the others I’d say I’d win easy, but against him it ain’t going to be easy and I might get chinned and flattened. But I could use the reach… just ping him with a right hand and I could knock him spark out.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jake Paul has made his prediction for a scrap between Dana White and Eddie Hearn as he shared…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":529174,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[447],"tags":[703,49,48,10359,19007,5277,82,640],"class_list":["post-529173","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-dana-white","tag-eddie-hearn","tag-jake-paul","tag-sports","tag-ufc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/529173","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=529173"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/529173\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/529174"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=529173"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=529173"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=529173"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
