The 28-year-old believes the sport has been harmed by fighters becoming more well-rounded.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMMA is not what it was, that\u2019s the truth of the matter,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBoxing is bigger than ever. The biggest sporting event of the year in 2024 was boxing. Whereas MMA is becoming a s***tier version of boxing. Essentially, it\u2019s kickboxing because everyone is getting good takedown defense, and everyone is a black belt in jiu-jitsu. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, there\u2019s no more submissions, really. There\u2019s not a lot of takedowns, and even if there is it\u2019s f***ing boring. Everyone is good at takedown defense, so it\u2019s literally kickboxing. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cGuess who the biggest star of the sport is in MMA? <a href=\"https:\/\/bloodyelbow.com\/tag\/alex-pereira\/\">Alex Pereira<\/a>, who is a kickboxer. Because he\u2019s knocking everyone out, blah, blah, blah. And he\u2019s the best one because no one can take him down, no one can submit him, so he\u2019s just knocking everyone out. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe UFC has less significant strikes per round, and that\u2019s with five-minute rounds.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jake Paul Unleashes On Claressa Shields, Fighting Logan &#038; Turki Alalshikh | RING CHAMPS w Ak &#038; Barak\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1SmPd0gsn6M?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2>Jake Paul slammed by angry MMA fans <\/h2>\n<p>A clip of Paul\u2019s comments has been shared on social media and gone viral in the online MMA world. <\/p>\n<p>Fans of the sport were quick to let the former Disney star what they thought about his bold take on MMA. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cLoser take!!
