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

[pamirec]

Pulling for Nate and I don’t remember myself ever rooting for Nate. Lol. Fortunately he’s getting paid big, but ain’t winning, unfortunately.

 

[El Fernas]

See Francis! this is how you get shit done!

Probably the biggest fight of the year.

Davis vs Garcia is coming up, Adesanya vs Pereira 2 just happened, Jones return at HW, and this is the biggest fight of the year? Jake Paul already lost his magic to Fury.

Like others have said, there Jake goes fighting more old MMA dudes. Pretty sad

Of course. Jake cant risk another loss.
So I guess this is the safest fight (with a name) his team could find.

 

[Mr Wings]

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

Respectfully, Nate has had wars and was only KOed once, years ago. You sure about that prediction?

 

[TeenageMutantLesnarTurtle]

Jake is gonna beat the shit out of him and probably stop him. Nate is about as perfect an opponent as Jake could have, old slow pillow fisted washed up MMA guy with name value.

Back to picking on retired MMA fighters. Jake Paul is going to beat Nate up. I know it's wild to scenario but Nates war torn, old and slow.

Wouldn’t surprise me if he gets stopped he’s like 37-38 and fighting at a weight class he has no business in. Seems like Jake does carry some power too he deaded Twood

Maybe not KO'd but he could lose by TKO if he gets dropped often enough.

Jake vs. another old/washed MMA fighter, this time a guy who spent most of his career at LW and never had much punching power.

Yep, I think the prime Nick Diaz who beat Paul Daley could beat Jake. He had endless cardio, punches-in-bunches and a great chin. But both Diaz boys are slow how and shadows of their prime days.

 

[camygod]

Jake Paul is a a clown look forward to not paying for this

 

[Power Slap GOAT]

omg nate is gonna point and laugh so hard. then he will be edgy with a joint- because joints are cool and edgy.

 

[Boomb]

omg nate is gonna bleed and point and laugh so hard. then he will be edgy with a joint- because joints are cool and edgy.

Fixed.

 

[Dorkman]

Maybe after? I don't know the ins/outs of their contract so I don't know if this fight negates the rematch clause...

I would imagine there’s a short time period he has to activate it. Otherwise you could just waste peoples time with it. So I’m guessing he’s probably passed on it entirely to take this. The Diaz fight likely sells better anyways

Chin +

Everyone thinking Nate has great boxing look at his boxing sparring over the years. He has no lateral footwork , slow as a sleuth , close to nonexistent defense and a very limited striking arsenal. Nates stand up worked in MMA rules because of his other qualities. In pure boxing ,despite the hype " Diaz Bros wanted to go pro" he is not good at all.. maybe that's enough for Paul, I don't watch celebrity boxing, but he isn't even a mediocre pro boxer

Chin + Cardio + Stockton Slaps equal win

 

[NotoriousEagleCucuy]

Conor's lil ass dropped Nate a few times. Jake flatlined a natural 170 guy in Woodley. Nate's chin has its limits.

Conor knocked him down, not out.

 

[ComfortablyNumb55]

Nate is a punching bag these days, he will get knocked out.

 

[WhiteMousse]

Nate is getting sent to the ER. Thankfully he's probably going to get paid more than all his combined UFC fight purses which is sad and encouraging at the same time.

The dude probably won't even get into the UFC hall of fame. The man has given the people true, consistent entertainment for a long time. Dana loves money and both the Diaz brothers gave him tons of it. They were always a draw, and Dana really dumped on them unsurprisingly.

Jake is about 50lb bigger than Nate

Yes, this fight will sell more than all those you mentioned.
