JAKE PAUL spoke out about Conor McGregor and his team's talk of setting up a fight.
Paul is being advised by Nakisa Bidarian, the former UFC Chief Financial Officer, which means he would have worked alongside McGregor's manager, Audi Attar.
Jake Paul and Conor McGregor shared their 'talk continuously'
The UFC has also made it clear that the Irishman cannot compete outside the octagon, even though he is under contract.
McGregor, 33 years old, was allowed to go to the UFC's boxing ring in 2017, where he lost to Floyd Mayweather (44).
White would have to bless him once again, but Paul, 24 years old, admitted that discussions had at least taken place behind closed doors.
Graham Bensinger was told by he: "If Dana ever lets Conor out of the contract to set up boxing matches, I believe that's what it takes to make it happen."
"And I believe that it will, I believe it will happen and if Conor continues to lose fights.
"He's only 1-4 over the last five years, so Dana won't be able do much with him anyway. Cash him in one more time.

His manager is good friends and a colleague of mine, and they have a lot of fun talking about how to make it happen.
"They're like: 'Yeah, we're down. We're about it.'
Paul beat YouTuber "AnEsonGib", ex-NBA star Nate Robinson (37), and Ben Askren (37).
His biggest win was in August against Tyron Woodley (ex-UFC champion), who won eight rounds.
Paul was then ready to fight Tommy Fury (22), until the British ex-reality TV star pulled out with broken ribs and a chest infection.
Fury has now signed Woodley as her replacement opponent. The pair will rematch over the weekend.
