Bryan Battle wants Jake Paul MMA fight but doubts he’ll accept
Bryan
Battle is ready to welcome Jake Paul to
MMA, but doesn’t believe the YouTuber-turned-boxer wants to face
him.

The
Professional Fighters League middleweight defeated Dalton
Rosta by split decision in the main event of
PFL Charlotte at Bojangles Coliseum, securing his first victory
under the PFL banner after losing to Johnny
Eblen in his promotional debut. After the fight, he discussed
the prospect of fighting Paul.

materializing

Following the win over Rosta, Battle was asked about the
possibility of sharing the cage with Paul, whose
Most Valuable Promotions recently merged with the PFL in a
landmark deal that will bring the two combat sports brands under
the MVP banner.

“I would,†Battle answered. “I don't think Jake Paul would fight
me. But I would fight Jake Paul for sure.â€

The call-out comes as Paul remains a central figure in the newly
formed MVP-PFL operation. Although he's only competed in boxing so
far, he has repeatedly discussed eventually making his MMA debut.
Meanwhile, Battle went 7-1 in the
Ultimate Fighting Championship but exited the promotion
following a string of weight misses. He's now 1-1 in the PFL.

16-0 Farid Basharat confirms UFC exit after seven straight wins

16-0 Farid Basharat confirms UFC exit after seven straight wins
Farid
Basharat has addressed his departure from the
Ultimate Fighting Championship in a statement on social
media.

Basharat (16-0) completed his contract with a victory over John Garza
in July and wasn't offered a new deal despite going unbeaten in the
promotion. In his statement, Basharat reflected on his UFC tenure
and questioned the organization's direction.

Farid Basharat says the UFC never offered a new contract after
his unbeaten seven-fight run

Basharat went 7-0 in the UFC after earning a contract on
Dana White's Contender Series, with six of those victories
coming by decision. He confirmed his departure on Instagram, saying
he competed under unfavorable circumstances and never declined a
fight.

“The news is confirmed, I am no longer with the UFC,†Basharat
wrote on Instagram. “I've had an incredibly successful time in the
organization. I'm proud and happy with what I've accomplished
inside the Octagon. I leave with a stainless record. Holding the
longest active win streak in my weight division and the fourth
longest in the entire UFC. I feel I'm the best bantamweight in the
world. I always turned up and fought regardless of injuries and
weight deficits. And I always asked for the toughest opponent to
get me closer to the title.â€

While grateful for his time with the promotion and its staff,
Basharat questioned the UFC's direction and said he had not
received a contract offer since his last bout.

“But my departure clearly has nothing to do with my fighting
capabilities,†Basharat added. “Unfortunately, the organization
just isn't what it used to be. They're heading in a different
direction from what we all grew up loving. I want to clarify that
since my last fight, I was never offered a contract or an opponent;
I waited, but it never came. I've certainly never declined a fight
during my whole tenure.â€
