Wow. I'm hyped. I've gotta give it to Jake as this is no easy fight and might even be tougher than Tommy Fury if I'm being honest.
I am hyped too, the fight has been anticipated for quite a while and it's nice that it's finally coming. To be honest I wish the fight would have happened sooner, Nate is already 38 who hasn't been so active anymore. The big age difference is definitely an issue but I think Nate will stand his ground. Again it's going to be a boxing match which is a big disadvantage for all the MMA fighters. I thought that Jake Paul was already training Jiu Jitsu and would start competing in the octagon. It's one thing to beat the MMA professionals in boxing and something completely different in a UFC setup. It would be awesome to see a rematch with Anderson Silva in the octagon. But let's focus on the Nate Diaz match first, with - 270 Jake Paul seems to be a strong favourite, at such odds I am going to bet on Nate Diaz.
Jake doesn't have the balls to be in UFC fight. There is just too many attack point to block while in boxing ha don't have to worry that he'd be taken down. The odds will be on Nate if this will be an MMA match.
But Jake prefers boxing since he has the edge and he is also the one organizing his own event. Exhibition matches are kind of bread and butter for Jake which Diaz vs Logan is like one exhibition fight.
I think he has the balls, he just doesn’t have the skills. Boxing is something that is much easier to do when you’ve been staying in good shape. Strength and size goes a long way to make up for lack of technique. MMA, not so much. You need to train multiple fight styles from the time you’re young to be able to compete. It’s a totally different level.
