"I've proven myself in and out of the boxing ring and now I am going to do the same in MMA, and there is no limit to the positive impact I can make on the sport. I plan to enter the PFL SmartCage and once again show the world that that anything is possible with hard work and dedication,"
"I believe in PFL, their mission, and what they have accomplished in a very short period of time. That is why I chose to partner with PFL exclusively, both as a fighter and a businessperson. As Head of Fighter Advocacy, I will consistently promote PFL fighters and I invite all top MMA fighters, both men and women, to join the PFL and get a payday like they've never had before."
Jake Paul signed with the Professional Fighters League in early 2023 as an exclusive fighter, minority owner and Head of Fighter Advocacy, with expectations to transition to mixed martial arts. He committed to entering the PFL SmartCage, helping launch pay-per-view super fights, and advocating for equal fighter pay and support for female fighters. Over roughly three years he fought eight times in boxing but never came close to competing in MMA. His affiliation with PFL has concluded after his contract reached its end rather than via a public release.
