Bryan
Battle is ready to welcome Jake Paul to
MMA, but doesn’t believe the YouTuber-turned-boxer wants to face
him.

The
Professional Fighters League middleweight defeated Dalton
Rosta by split decision in the main event of
PFL Charlotte at Bojangles Coliseum, securing his first victory
under the PFL banner after losing to Johnny
Eblen in his promotional debut. After the fight, he discussed
the prospect of fighting Paul.

Bryan Battle welcomes Jake Paul fight but doesn’t see it
materializing

Following the win over Rosta, Battle was asked about the
possibility of sharing the cage with Paul, whose
Most Valuable Promotions recently merged with the PFL in a
landmark deal that will bring the two combat sports brands under
the MVP banner.

“I would,” Battle answered. “I don’t think Jake Paul would fight
me. But I would fight Jake Paul for sure.”

The call-out comes as Paul remains a central figure in the newly
formed MVP-PFL operation. Although he’s only competed in boxing so
far, he has repeatedly discussed eventually making his MMA debut.
Meanwhile, Battle went 7-1 in the
Ultimate Fighting Championship but exited the promotion
following a string of weight misses. He’s now 1-1 in the PFL.
