According to the YouTuber's advisor, BROCK LENAR is the only fighter that can challenge Jake Paul's rise in fight games.
American Paul is a 4-0 boxer who has been in two major pay-per view events.
Jake Paul fights Tyron Woodley
Last was a point win in Cleveland against Tyron Woodley (ex-UFC champion), over eight rounds.
It also included knockouts over online rival AnEsonGib, ex NBA star Nate Robinson, and retired UFC Welterweight Ben Askren, both aged 37.
Paul, 24, quickly rose to fame after his professional debut just 20 months ago.
His advisor Nakisa Bidearian, founder of talent agency BAVAFA Sport, stated that only Lesnar's jump from WWE to UFC was comparable.
SunSport spoke with Bidarian: "The truth be told, Brock Lesnar is the only combat sport star in history to have had the same success as Jake.
"Jake arrived with an instal of fans, but they weren't pay-per-view buyers.
BETTING SPECIAL - GET JOSHUA TO WIN IN ROUNDS 1-6 AT 60/1 OR ANYTIME AT 25/1"Brock was a pay-per view star in another entertainment product.
"His fans used to buying his content so I think Jake is doing a better job than any other fighter.
"You can either love or hate him but you must respect him and see the strength of this movement."
44-year-old Lesnar made his debut in UFC in 2008, and the following year, in a third promotional fight, he won a heavyweight belt.
He left UFC after seven fights and returned in 2012. In 2012, he fought in the UFC octagon for the first time.
Conor McGregor, then the new face of the company, was a UFC executive at the time.
He watched as McGregor (33), became the most popular fighter in combat sports.
After years of building his brand in Ireland, the Irishman made a splash Stateside.
Bidarian recalls McGregor's return to Dublin in 2014. It was a sellout.
Paul's August homecoming against Woodley elicited a familiar feeling.
Bidarian stated that Conor had been a champion in smaller regional promotions before he came to the UFC.
He had 14 fights to build his support in that market. It was probably his third fight in UFC. He headlined the UFC Dublin.
"That was an incredible night. The energy was amazing. It was the first time he had headlined a card. He really owned the conversation.
"Look at Jake. He went into his fourth fight, his first fight that he wasn’t a headliner. Second fight no audience, third fight not audience.
"So it was his headliner with fans. I felt the same energy and excitement in Cleveland as we did in Dublin that night.
"So it definitely gave us some degree of similarity."
Bidarian confirmed Paul's plans to return before the end of this year and is currently in discussions with four fighters including Tommy Fury (22).
Fury, who was the winner on Paul's undercard last Month, is at the top of this list, despite having rejected two offers.
Bidarian stated: "I think there are two other fighters that are more suitable for Jake.
"But Jake has a feeling that Jake listens, there's always this constant chatter about, 'Fight a Boxer'.
Jake's perspective is that he brought Fury [the guy] to my card. Fury tried to enter the ring but he was unsuccessful. Fury then hung backstage to stir the pot.
"This is the next step in my life."
