Nate Diaz welcomes Jake Paul’s call-out
Paul has expressed interest in making his MMA debut against the former Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter. They previously met in a boxing match that marked Diaz’s professional debut, which Paul won by unanimous decision after 10 rounds.
Paul framed the matchup as a potential game-changer in the sport, suggesting a fight with Diaz could help reshape the combat sports landscape. Diaz has finally responded on social media, seemingly welcoming the bout.
“Pull the f**k up,” Diaz posted on X.
Diaz (21-14) is coming off a loss to Mike Perry at MVP’s inaugural MMA event and his last win in the sport came against Tony Ferguson in his final UFC fight nearly four years ago. Meanwhile, Paul, who has a wrestling background and professional boxing experience, claims he’s never trained jiu-jitsu or kicking before.
