‘The Problem Child’ also called out the UFC veteran for a fight and urged him to get out of his UFC contract. It is worth noting that Paul has been looking to fight Diaz for a while now. However, the matchup hasn’t come to fruition just yet because Diaz is still under the UFC contract and has one fight left.
It remains to be as to when Diaz gets done with his obligations at the UFC and makes a potential move to boxing. On the flipside, Jake Paul is currently set to face Hasim Rahman Jr. on August 6th for his sixth pro-fight. However, one thing is for certain, the fans would love to see Jake Paul and Nate Diaz square off inside the squared circle.
Nate Diaz stands as a behemoth in the game, even though not winning a title in his entire career, he has notable wins over UFC historic champ Conor McGregor, Donald Cerrone, Rafael dos Anjos, and more.
Nate Diaz being inactive in UFC for a year with his last two losses to Leon Edwards and Jorge Masvidal is awaiting his last fight in the contract.
Fans expected a trilogy bout with his notable rival Conor McGregor to be his last fight. However, Conor McGregor’s comeback is not yet confirmed. The Stockholm fighter has his skills polished for any potential next opponent.
He is expected to venture into boxing with his debut fight against Jake Paul. He has also been involved in a spat with UFC’s president Dana White about his contract and payment.
