Check Out The Full Announcement

It's official :) Representing the UFC Mr. Napoleon Dynamite look-alike Ben Askren finally accepted the fight. He is a two-time NCAA champion, a world champion in two different global mixed martial arts organizations and has less losses on his record than Conor Mcgregor, yet, I'm still going to knock him out faster than Masvidal did... Some MMA guys think because they throw punches they know how to box.

I shocked the world when I knockout an NBA superstar athlete, but some people still complained that he's not a real fighter... So now I'm giving the people what they want by taking on a real fighter... After I add Ben to my knockout meme collection, what can anybody say? April 17th. 82 days. The countdown starts now. Be ready.

Jake Paul recently, faced basketball player Nate Robinson as part of the undercard for the Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones Jr. exhibition match, Paul won the fight via KO at 1:24 in the second round.

Askren last faced Demian Maia on October 26, 2019 at UFC on ESPN+ 20. He lost the fight via submission in round three. This fight earned him the Fight of the Night award. On November 18, 2019 Askren announced his retirement from mixed martial arts competition.
