Jake Paul is apparently feuding with UFC fighter Khamzat Chimaev. The pair had a heated exchange on social media and it appears they want to fight each other.

It all started when UFC welterweight Khamzat Chimaev tweeted about Jake and his brother Logan. He wrote: “I can smash this guys same night BOXING”

It didn't take long for Jake Paul to get back to the UFC fighter and give him a new nickname. He apparently wasn't amused by the tweet.

“Listen Kumquat…,” Jake tweeted out from his page. “You are just another UFC fighter pretending you can box. Sit down, shut up and pray you get paid fairly.”

UFC welterweight Khamzat Chimaev was never going to let that one go unanswered. He quickly fired back with a famous Khabib Nurmagomedov quote of his own.

“You number-one bullshit bro,” Chimaev tweeted.

Jake Paul didn't answer that tweet but the UFC welterweight wasn't going to wait for an answer. He quickly tweeted out a picture with the Paul brother's heads on his wall.

Khamzat Chimaev is a very popular fighter with a huge fan base and a gigantic hype train. He recently returned to the cage at UFC 267 and reminded everyone why he had so much hype surrounding him.

Paul appears to recognize that as he was willing to go back and forth with the fighter of Russian origin. He also made sure UFC President Dana White took some shots as well by bringing up fighter pay, a hotly debated topic.
