Jake Paul looked unrecognizable after he claimed he illegally sneaked into UFC 306 in defiance of Dana White’s orders.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer says he has been banned from UFC events since 2021.
Paul, 27, said he has been barred from participating in events organized by White after clashing with commentator Daniel Cormier at UFC 261.
But he defied his ban over the weekend and arrived at UFC 306 in a stunning costume.
Paul pulled the stunt while he was looking forward to watching his friend Sean O’Malley defend his bantamweight title against Merab Dvalishvili.
He uploaded a video on his social media account in which he was wearing a very different outfit and wig along with a fake beard and glasses.
Paul claimed in the video that he was sneaking into the event “illegally.”
He said: “If I get caught I risk going to jail, can you imagine my picture?”
He could be seen going past the security check and taking a seat near the ring.
Fans reacted to the video on his Instagram account.

However, Paul’s efforts were not enough to give O’Malley the victory.
The American lost to Dvalishvili via fifth-round decision at the Sphere in Las Vegas.
