Jake Paul Rinses Dana White And UFC Over Paddy Pimblett's Measly Fight Purse

The outspoken Liverpudlian lightweight submitted Kazula Vargas inside the first round courtesy of a rear naked choke on Saturday night at the O2 Arena, moving to 2-0 in the UFC.

Fans were absolutely staggered when 'The Baddy' said he was only guaranteed $12,000 (£9,000) - and a further $12,000 (£9,000) if he had won his bout.

He did in stunning fashion to get that second payment and also collected a handsome $50,000 bonus fee.

But still the amount felt a little low given Pimblett was the star of the show. And Paul, who has been very vocal about UFC's pay structure, offered his two cents on the matter.

On Twitter, he wrote: "Paddy Pimblett getting pimped. Who manages these guys?

Paul, who has made millions from transitioning into boxing, has invested in UFC's parent company Endeavor amidst his heated back and forth with White.

He has even gone as far as saying he would retire from boxing altogether if White improved fighter pay - specifically fighters earning a minimum of $50,000 per appearance inside the Octagon, receive 50 per cent of profits and have a better healthcare plan.

Pimblett has drawn comparisons with Conor McGregor and plans on surpassing him in the future.

He is said to be on a similar deal, figure-wise, to what McGregor was on in his early days in the UFC when his stock was growing every fight.

Pimblett told Barstool Sports, he said: "It goes up after every fight, but you're in a contract, so it's whenever they want to offer me a new one, they offer me a new one.

"So, it's just one of those things."
