News *** The Jake Paul v Nate Diaz Official Discussion Mega Thread ***

[Reileyb]

Eh, I might check it out if i'm not doing anything else.

Jake could definitely win, Nate isn't knocking him out, has a size disadvantage and passed his prime like most of Jakes opponents.

If Nate treats Jake like a meme and doesn't take this fight seriously in training and in the ring, he will regret it.

If Nate comes in looking decent, then I expect him to take the entire fight into his hands after round 2, but I would bet on Jake winning at this stage.

 

[Mcnugget]

Pleased Nate will be getting a nice payout, think he’ll get knocked out unfortunately.

Really???

 

[Ares Black]

most exciting thing in UFC news right now

Uh you probably shouldn't admit that.

 

[Uber_Noober]

I wish this fight would take place at the SLAP barrel

 

[BoxerMaurits]

 

[MitMcl]

I think Paul takes a competitive decision.

 

[RoyJonesJr]

Paul wins a decision

Nate can't land that big KO shot with big ass boxing gloves

He can take over and dominate the last few rounds but Jake will take the first 4-6

 

[deadshot138]

Wow another washed undersized punching bag for JP

 

[TerrorTimmy]

Dumb.

Jake Paul has legit trainers and spends time at it. Nate is old, has a ton of wear and tear, and can't use his grappling at all.

And that's before we mention the likely 15-20 pounds Jake Paul will have over Nate, if not more.

Freakshow fight that I have zero interest in

 

[Dandy Chiggins]

I would like to see Nate do well but this is a mismatch.... Size difference alone.

 

[UFCIsNOTRigged]

Not sure who this fight is meant to appeal to but best of luck to both of them.

 

[FreddieRoachsVoice]

Paul's going to have a better resume than half of the WW top 10 at this rate which is beyond depressing. The rank squatting is completely out of control

[what-wut]

Paul wins a decision

Nate can't land that big KO shot with big ass boxing gloves

He can take over and dominate the last few rounds but Jake will take the first 4-6

He probably sleeps nate

 

[CJrider]

Jake finding another retired, undersized LW MMA guy, in this case not known for his power.

Diaz has alright hands, but he's old and physically small compared to Jake.

I'm just happy Diaz gets another few million for his retirement.

 

[ThePimblettEra]

This is what the game has become.

 

[JakePaulMMA]

Nate by triangle choke.

You'll eat those words

 

[Fergelmince]

Tommy Fury was guaranteed $2M plus 35% of the PPV buys. I have to think Diaz negotiated something better than that.

 

[Elvis.]

It’s one of those fiascos that everyone is going to speak out against for being a freak show in public and watch themselves for sure

 

[IDL]

And Nate just proved leaving the UFC *with a name* can be quite lucrative.

Fixed

Nate managed to develop a good fan base during his UFC career.

These celebrity boxing matches rely largely on the names of the combatants. Probably mostly Jake Paul in the case, but Diaz does bring some recognition also.
