'Little d*ckhead' Jake Paul has been sending DMs to Michael Bisping on Twitter

Michael Bisping has savagely called Jake Paul a 'little d*ckhead', revealing he's been sending him direct messages on Twitter.

Paul resumes his boxing career against former UFC superstar Nate Diaz following his defeat to Tommy Fury last February.

He's landed himself another MMA fighter, having fought the likes of Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva.

The 26-year-old had also pursued Bisping, who captured the UFC middleweight title during his legendary career, but failed to lure him to the ring.

But that's not stopped him from taking shots at Bisping, with the pair exchanging DMs on Twitter.

The Brit called him a 'little d*ckhead' as he revealed that he's been sent DMs.

"I’ll tell you what I think, I think Jake Paul is a little d*ckhead," he said.

"He’s been sending me DMs on Twitter, again. I don’t know what prompted this one, [last one was] maybe six months ago, maybe less. He just came at me on Twitter, this is direct message, I won’t go into exact details.

"We went back and forth a bit, I was just laughing at him and he was all upset."

The UFC legend added: "The reality is, I don’t know Jake Paul, I’ve never met the guy. I’m sure he’s not a bad person, he talks a lot of crap, he’s doing his own thing, he’s promoting himself.

"But I don’t know him, and I’ve never said anything personal about him. All I’ve ever said is that I wish the guy would fight a boxer."

Bisping won't be able to get his hands on 'The Problem Child', but Diaz will as they go head-to-head on August 5.

Paul vs, Diaz, which is scheduled for eight rounds, will headline a big event in Dallas, Texas.

Who takes it? Let us know.
