Social media star and boxer Jake Paul reacted to the news that the mixed martial arts promotion UFC has signed a $7.7 billion deal with Paramount.
Jake Paul on his X account
Now they are saying PPV is dead when they have a PPV this weekend with Du Plessis and another one with Pereira and another one with Aspinal… Every fighter in the UFC now has a clear picture of what the revenue is…no more PPV excuses. Get your worth boys and girls.
Under the agreement, UFC will give Paramount exclusive access to all of the organization’s events in the United States as part of a seven‑year contract that begins in 2026.
Paramount will exclusively stream 13 numbered UFC events and 30 Fight Night cards on its platform Paramount+. One of the key provisions of the new deal is that the media giant is abandoning the pay‑per‑view model entirely. For the standard monthly Paramount+ subscription of $12.99, users will now have access to every new UFC fight.
