Snoop Dogg laid down the gauntlet on Dana White for the upcoming boxing fight between YouTube star Jake Paul and MMA veteran Ben Askren. The hip hop artist challenged White to bet $2 million on Askren.
Via TMZ Sports:
“Hey Dana White, I see you got faith in your boy right? Going up against my guy Jake,” Snoop Dogg said.
“You say you got a million? You're the CEO of UFC, man. You've got more than a million. Put up two million and we'll match it. … Come on Dana, whatchu waiting on? Your money good. Yeah, I got Jake. Fight night. That's my guy, that's my dog in the fight. Two million. Holla at me, Dana White.”
Oh boy, it's on, at least according to Snoop Dogg.
White began the trash talk when he appeared on Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, claiming that Jake Paul isn't a real boxer. While former boxing champion Zab Judah disputed White's take, the 51-year-old said he's willing to bet a million dollars that the internet sensation, who is officially 2-0 in his professional boxing career, will lose to the 36-year-old MMA veteran.
Of course, Jake Paul saw this and, like Snoop Dogg, he himself challenged Dana White to drop $2 million instead. He even dared White to step into the ring with him after he takes care of Ben Askren:
Of course, many will still remember Snoop Dogg's hilarious commentary when Jake Paul sent ex-NBA veteran Nate Robinson to sleep. Perhaps the 24-year-old's performance that night was enough to convince Snoop that he could fight with just about anybody, even an experienced fighter like Askren.
