Jake Paul admits he could return to YouTube if he loses to UFC legend Nate Diaz

Jake Paul could return to making videos on YouTube if he loses his latest boxing fight against UFC veteran Nate Diaz.

Influencer Paul will compete in his latest squared circle outing against Diaz on August 5 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, as he looks to respond to defeat to Tommy Fury. The Problem Child made a huge success of his recent event against the Brit but ultimately came up short in his first test against a professional boxer, losing by split decision.

After his Saudi Arabia exploit, Paul will now return to fighting an opponent from an MMA background in Diaz who is known for his powerful striking in the octagon. A second career defeat would be a devastating blow to Paul's profile in combat sports and could see him frozen out of future fights against professional boxers.
