Jake Paul believes he would beat Nate Diaz and any other UFC welterweight in the boxing ring.
Paul has been vowing to fight a whole host of the UFC's leading names, including Jorge Masvidal and recent rival Diaz, after knocking out Ben Askren and former promotion champion Tyron Woodley during his fledgling career. Diaz has one final fight remaining on his UFC contract and will take on Khamzat Chimaev on September 11 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Afterwards, Diaz is understood to be keen on a lucrative boxing fight with YouTube star Paul, who has frequently called for the UFC veteran to be released to negotiate the terms. However, this week, UFC president Dana White claimed that Diaz had told him personally that he is uninterested in facing the undefeated boxer.
