At the beginning of this year, Sean OโMalley and Jake Paul took their friendship to a new level. They have gone into business together to create โWโ, the menโs fragrance company. Now, the lifelong cruiserweight influencer-boxer has been keen to be part of the UFC 306 Pay-per-view โSuga Showโ title fight. The only deterrent in his way โ Dana White.
But when has that ever stopped โProblem Childโ from being problematic? He and UFC CEO Dana White have a long-running feud and admittedly donโt get along. According to Paul, he was barred from UFC events due to their strained relationship. This came after a brief skirmish with UFC competition veteran and commentator Daniel Cormier at UFC 261. However, Paul had a way out.
Iโm about to sneak into the Sphere, [Video intro]…Two years ago, I was banned from all UFC events by Dana Whiteโฆ But since my best buddy Sean OโMalley was fighting for a world championship, I had to be there. [Continues] But if Iโm gonna illegally sneak in, I need a disguise and a good one…

Disdain for Paul and his culture of influencer crossovers has only grown. The UFC 306 Noche PPV has the Saudi GEA and Turki Alalshikhโs backing. His excellency even recently dissed his DAZN Pay-per-view win. Alalshikh was ringside for the double-branded Riyadh Season Noche event of the night. Despite a lengthy suspension, Jake Paul wanted to make sure he was at UFC 306 to witness history. He managed to do so by dressing up and sneaking in.
The video shows Paul kitting up on long ginger hair and a beard. Dad-bod Paul managed to get past security and expressed his disbelief as he said: โI canโt believe this is working.โ He even caught glimpses of Dana White and most recent callout Alex Pereira. As such, the matter has gone quite viral.
Fight fans react to Not-Jake Paulโs Noche Event antics
If thereโs anything the Ohio-born internet sensation and now boxer has proved, is that Paul never shies from a challenge. Sure, he goes around with an entourage ever since his โGotcha Hatโ stunt on Floyd Mayweather. But itโs not for the lack of trying.
Jake Paul may often face flak for maintaining a clear line of opposition of MMA washouts, but he doesnโt back away. He recently accepted a $25,000 bet from popular content-creator-turned-boxing bettor, Vee Vaynerchuk. This was to race Darrenย โIShowSpeedโ in an impromptu 40-yard dash. He also calls on the biggest of challenges for the sake of challenge, popularity, and business.
If there was ever a doubt about that, look to him facing consensus HW icon Mike Tysonย next in a pro-sanction heavyweight bout. That fight is to be contested across a total of eight two-minute rounds at AT&T Stadium. With a long-time ban by White, Jake Paul took up his next hill โ UFC 306 aka the annual Noche event. Here are a few reactions to him illegally entering.
โim risking jailโ posting the video is incriminating urself

Jake Paul is funny as hell ๐

In what looks like a hybrid second coming of Big Lebowski or something like Mike Wazowski, Paul with his dad bod and false hairline consequently worked the charm. Additionally, the 27-year-old even bumped into fellow content creators Adin Ross and Mike Majlak in the arena. With neither even realizing it was Paul in disguise.
Moreover, like it or not, most fans agree that the boxer can be really funny for content sometimes. Like fearing risking jail, and contrarily uploading the content anyway. A prominent reaction (@WhatsALegKick) even quipped at his incognito setups saying โDana gonna be heated ๐โ. As such, White might just blast off in a rage after this.
