Jake Paul’s business partner, Nakisa Bidarian, told Pakinomist Digital in a recent interview that lawyers “actively” pursue litigation against Piers Morgan for saying that Paul’s matches are “staged.”
Co-founder of most valuable campaigns said in a recent X-post that Morgan can “count on” Bidarian, who sues the talk show host.
“BREAKING: I had a better match with Jake Paul on Thursday than the unattended father who took place tonight,” Morgan sent to X on Sunday, referring to his interview with Paul Days before fought for Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. “The guy is lined with his pockets of $$$$ race-but he kills boxing with this dull living room bulls — against the elderly fighting for their prime.”

Bidarian replied to Morgan and said his “baseless and irresponsible.”
“That’s one thing to say ‘you’re not a good boxer.’ It’s another thing to say ‘you fight against older guys.’ But when you say the fighting is staged, alias rigged, defamating us, “Bidarian Pakinomist told Digital in a recent conversation. “You destroy value for his brand, for MVP’s brand and what we stand for, which is sport.
“You are actually attacking California State Athletic Commission that monitored this event. Then you say we risk going to federal imprisonment for putting on staged events. So enough, we’ve been patient for a long time and now it’s time for people to either pull back and admit they were wrong or went through with lawsuits.”

“Every single Jake Paul match has been sanctioned by an athletic commission,” Bidarian added. “Every single Jake Paul Fight has had sports betting on it. Every single Jake Paul Fight has been with a great media partner. For someone to say that any of Jake’s matches are something other than professionally sanctioned matches with clear rules is ridiculous.”
The calls for rigged battles grew high after Paul fought for Mike Tyson – at that time Bidarian made the same claim to Pakinomist Digital, as it was all legitimate.
Paul said at X that he “asked my team to vigorously go after anyone who makes up lies about my boxing career.”
After defeating Chavez, Paul was ranked 14 in WBA Cruiserweight Rankings, making him eligible for a title match. Bidarian said he expects such a battle to occur in “2026 or 2027.”
