Who the fck is funding the 50mil for Jake Paul vs Conor Mcgregor?

Jake Paul just called out mxgregor on instagram saying he's got 50mil for mcgregor if he takes the fight.

Who the fck is funding that? That's a huuuuuuge risk on these exhibition fights, mayweather is gonna get anywhere near that.

When youre popular.. even for the wrong reasons.. you can generate attention/revenue.
thats why these useless influencer sloots make money. Cuz they have followers.
Jake paul is no different.
and ppl like watching celebs fight and how they might do. Most casuals dont know the boxers personalities but they do know jake paul. So theyd watch to see him lose

You're combining mma fans who like/dislike McGregor with YouTube fans. That is a huge combined fan base

You underestimate the power of stupid kids and teens who watch youtube and follow youtube drama religiously.


Then mix in all the MMA try-hards and idiots.


Then mix in anyone interested in seeing someone get hurt and be embarrassed badly.


Subtract all the illegal streamers.

The robinson and paul fight broke records. Now that the highlight of paul knocking out robinson is all over the internet, paul now has hype. Now you bring in someone as popular/famous as mcgregor, all types of records will be shattered. You underestimate the tiktok generation.

Someone who likes money? That seems like a super low risk investment with a monster return potential.

Compare that to dumping $50M into stonks and hoping to get 5%-10% before the bubble pops.

Can’t fund a fight that isn’t happening. Khabib’s retired. Conors going for another title run in ufc. Maybe the jake Paul fight will happen after conors next ufc loss.

Yep pretty much this. Logan vs KSI did 1.3 mill PPV buys and that was just 2 youtubers promoting the fight themselves basically via their channels.

Throw in a real fighter and their fanbase and with the PPV numbers Tyson/Jones did there's clearly a demand for these stupid meaningless fights. This is the power of celebrity, we live in an age where literally any idiot can be famous because people are more obsessed with celebrity than ever before.
