JAKE PAUL revealed there is a ‘fight announcement coming soon’ as the YouTuber boasted of ‘getting paid like a king’.
Paul recently moved to 3-0 in his career, all by knockout, as he beat ex-UFC welterweight Ben Askren in one round.
He has since taken a break but appears keen on keeping his rivalry with the UFC alive.
The social media sensation was confronted by former champion Daniel Cormier, 42, at UFC 261 in April.
And welterweight king Kamaru Usman, 34, who knocked out Jorge Masvidal, 36, that night also called out Paul.
The American celebrity recently revealed he was in talks with Usman’s management ahead of his return.
And while it is not yet clear who else could be on the cards as Paul’s fourth opponent, he hinted confirmation will be released soon.
Paul, 24, tweeted: “In the media business they say content is king… and in the fight business, fighters are the content…so WE are the kings.
“Make sure you are getting paid like a king! new fight announcement coming soon…”
Paul is currently helping his brother Logan, 26, prepare for his exhibition bout against Floyd Mayweather, 44, on June 6.

And he stole the headlines at the press conference after stealing Mayweather’s hat.
It sparked a mass melee involving the boxing legend and the Paul brothers.
Jake warned Logan has ‘knockout power’ and predicted an unassuming Mayweather will ‘severely underestimate’ his brother.
“I think it’s great, I think it brings more eyeballs to the sport of boxing. People forget that boxing is entertainment,” Jake told SunSport.
“All sports are designed for entertainment even dating back to the Roman Empire, they had Olympics sports for entertainment.
“This is entertaining and I think that Floyd will again severely underestimate my brother, and there’s a size advantage, my brother’s fast and has knockout power.
“I’m not saying he’s going to beat Floyd, I’m not going to say he’s going to lose against Floyd, but I do think we’re going to see a good fight.”
