Jake Paul defeated Mike Perry with a round 6 TKO. The scales reported Paul had less than 3lb on his opponent. But we want to know how he rehydrates because he definitely looked bigger in the ring! We have to hand it to him, though; that was a vicious TKO.

Fresh off his win against Mike Perry, Jake Paul was quick to call out more opposition. He's not just after Mike Tyson; he also called out Alex Pereira, saying, “I want all the smoke. I want all the MMA guys, and I’ve beaten all of them. Who’s next? He’s the king of the UFC right now, so I want him. I’m going to decapitate him and dethrone him.” 

Pereira's brief response spoke volumes; he replied on Instagram, "Let's Go!! Chama."

B*tch asses. You could never.”
