Eddie Hearn thinks Jake Paul vs Nate Diaz is a "mismatch" as the boxing promoter predicts Paul will win by knockout inside four rounds.
Paul, 26, will welcome UFC legend Diaz, 38, to the ring on August 5 as the pair clash at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas. The YouTuber boxer has been pushing for a fight against Diaz ever since knocking out Tyron Woodley in their December 2021 rematch, but negotiations weren't able to take place until Diaz became a free agent last September.
Fans have begun to fear the worst for Diaz after a recent training clip emerged of him hitting pads. Former boxing world champion Andre Ward believes Diaz's style was misinterpreted in the clip, but Hearn agrees with fans who believe that Diaz's boxing skills are subpar and he will be knocked out by Paul.
