Media Jake Paul offered Strickland $1 mil to spar and Strickland turned it down

[killakillakilla]

Sean claimed the UFC would sue him if he sparred with Jake for a mil even though Sean had just got done bullying on Sneako.

Sean gets outclassed sparring.


I assume boxing.

 

[Ornife]

Wouldn't he be sued? That sounds an awful lot like a de facto exhibition match.

 

[NationWideNinja]

Dont see on what grounds the UFC would be able to sue him. As long as they dont air it and use it to make money, I dont see how its any different from the million sparring sessions he has in his gym

 

[Copper Burner]

Sean can't just accept 1 million dollars to box Jake. It doesn't work that way.

U Fight Cheap would immediately send out the paddy rollers if one of its fuck-slaves ever thought they could escape the plantation on a 'sparring' technicality.

So Strickland would be telling the truth about not being able to do it if this offer was even serious.

Because Sean would be profiting 1 million dollars. Ever heard of contracts?

So its okay if he has multiple full on fights in the gym, as long as he isnt getting paid for it?

Dont see how it hurts the UFC in the slightest AS LONG as they dont film/profit from it

 

[killakillakilla]

I don’t think the UFC would be able to sue Sean here. Let’s say that Jake offered Strickland $1 mil to “train” with him and they sparred during those training sessions. This is really no different and the ufc wouldn’t be able to sue imo.

You think Jake Paul is going to pay someone a million dollars to spar and not film it, or make money off of it?



I have no idea if the UFC could or could not sue Sean. I'm not a contract lawyer and I have no idea what is in his contract. But it feels like this sort of thing would get Sean in some legal trouble with the UFC.

How do you know he’s not getting paid for them? Maybe he’s getting paid to help train his team.

 

[ILove4MinutesHyuna]

I mean Jake is kinda being a dumbass here you dont need to offer Strickland a million, he could just show up to his gym I dont see why Strickland would refuse to just spar him.

 

[The Boomerang]

How can u be sued for sparring?


Strickland sounds shook

 

[Psychojoe86]

Yeah no, it’s against the ufc contract to get paid for fighting in others without permission.

How did mcgregor box mayweather then? I assume ufc approved it or was part of the contract

Either way, Jake Paul is dumb and I’m glad Sean Strickland turned him down, even if it’s for this reason. Strickland has been a great fighter and a ufc champion. Jake Paul is just a record padder succubus stealing the success of retired fighters

 

[MMA_AZ]

Sean will jump a future opponent at a work event and beat up a skinny youtuber but not for 1 million dollars. Put the money in your mommas name Sean. Looking like a bitch...

 

[SuperNerd]

Those DMs don't match his story.

Dms are more like

"Will you com visit me?"
"Lets fight"
"Okay, spar or fight. Lets go"
"Man, I'll talk to UFC, we can make serious money!"

 

[Tweak896]

Imagine the loophole if fighters could just prizefight in gyms on their own time and call it "sparring". Just a small camera crew and no setup, just let them go inside the gym. If it were legally possible, the UFC's contracts have more holes than swiss cheese.

 

[jeff7b9]

Jake Paul move right there.

Make an offer that could never be accepted due to Sean's UFC contract then act like Sean "ducked him."

Remember these fucking idiots throwing toilet paper at Danis and then DRIVING AWAY and acting like that was tough for some reason.

Probably drumming up attention to call out Ken Shamrock or Fred Ettish for a boxing match.

 

[DarthChen731]

Nervous to get embarrassed by a YouTuber

 

[El Fernas]

Im with Jake Paul on this...he pretty much did the same when he beat the skinny guy, now doing it with Jake Paul becomes an "exhibition"?? Boxers and MMA guys spar all the time with other pros, a lot of times it goes behind closed doors and they love to talk on how they did beat someone in sparring...the UFC doesnt have a problem with that, now they do if its Jake Paul? BS...
