He is known for his role as sparring partner to YouTuber and boxer Paul.
Before beating Ben Askren (37), in April, Askren was a social media star who helped him.
Taylor, 32, went back to Paul's camp to assist his friend in preparation for Tyron Woodley (39), ex-UFC champion, on August 29.
He said that the amount he earned from sparring was more than he ever received in MMA.
Betway Insider spoke with Taylor: "I had an opportunity to fight in Cage Warriors, but I couldn’t resist the offer of Jake's money.
"I am getting more money in two months as Jake's training partner than I did in my entire MMA career over six years.
"I swear to God, I made more money in two months with Jake than my entire MMA career."
"It's quite disturbing, considering I fought for Bellator. Bellator has two top-five contenders and I had a great run.
"It's high time to step up and fight for UFC."
Paul, 24 has also offered Tayor fights on his undercard.
The Bellator lightweight will take on Tommy Fury from Britain, 22-year-old who is trying to fight Paul.
Taylor stated, "I'm going to kill him." He's going in a dogfight. He underestimates me and is looking over me.
He thinks he's flying to Cleveland to face Jake. But he won't be there that night.
Tommy's fights are more embarrassing than Jake's.
"Tommy fought an opponent with 10 wins, 126 losses. Jake would never face a man like that.
"He is not as skilled." I want what he's got; the money, status, everything.
