Diaz is pushing 38, well past his prime and on the cusp of retirement. He's about 15lbs smaller than Jake Paul. Nate's never had great boxing even for MMA, he coasted so much off of his chin, cardio and pressure. Nates a semi retired journeyman with a big name who's in terms of boxing 2 divisions under Jake Paul. This is the perfect kinda fight for Paul.
What I'm wondering is when will a legit, non washed up, retired, undersized, horribly injured MMA fighter box Jake Paul? I know fans are really stupid but we watched Mike Perry beat arguably a better boxer than Paul in Triad by the name of Mike Seals. Where is the shame at this point? Go box Tumenov or Gregory Rodrigues or something, I don't think Paul wins those.
Great point around Perry although he's also somewhat smaller than Jake. He also beat MVP in bare knuckle. The guy is super tough and keeps moving forward. However if you watch Paul fight he always clinches when he's getting pieced up at close range.
I don't think Diaz has a chance against Jake. Size, age, power all against him.
