Usman Nurmagomedov successfully defended his Professional Fighters League (PFL) lightweight title with a TKO victory and then publicly questioned his compensation under the league’s new ownership led by Jake Paul. Following the win, he directly addressed Jake Paul, who recently became a promoter for PFL. Nurmagomedov issued what ESPN described as a challenge to Paul regarding his pay.
The fighter stated, “I want bigger pay,” indicating dissatisfaction with his current earnings despite being a champion within the organization. This statement suggests Nurmagomedov is seeking improved financial terms under Paul’s leadership and potentially leveraging his title defense to negotiate a more lucrative contract.
