Episode description as stored
After ringing the Nasdaq bell, Jake Paul is putting the world on notice once again that he is shaking up the sports and business world with his latest knock out move. Jake and Most Valuable Promotions co-founder Nakisa Bidarian join The Pivot Podcast fresh off the blockbuster announcement of their merger with the PFL alongside CEO John Martin. In a wide-ranging conversation, Jake opens up about the mindset that's fueled his rise—from the "delusional confidence" that helped him bet on himself to building one of the biggest brands in sports and entertainment. He and Nakisa break down their vision for changing combat sports, protecting fighters, creating new opportunities, and why they believe they can compete with the UFC. Jake also reflects on his boxing journey, the critics who have motivated him every step of the way, and why proving doubters wrong continues to drive him. He even shares why he believes he could have played slot receiver in the NFL, while opening up about his long-term goals of building generational wealth, starting a family, and creating a legacy that extends far beyond the ring. It's an honest conversation about ambition, disruption, business, and what it takes to keep betting on yourself when the world says you can't. Learn more about your ad choices.
