Jake Paul and Nate Diaz
Jake Paul and Nate Diaz went back and forth on Twitter recently
Nate Diaz wasn’t impressed with Ben Askren stating that YouTuber-turned-professional Boxer Jake Paul was ‘kind of good’ at Boxing.
‘Funky’ in a recent interview with Lex Fridman claimed that ‘The Problem Child’ was quite good at Boxing.
In the wake of this, Diaz took to Twitter, laughing it off, claiming that it was coming from a wrestler who couldn’t fight or box.
He wrote:
“Coming from a retired wrestler who can’t fight or box.”
Paul quote tweeted the same, stating:
“You have 6 times as many losses as Ben Askren. Let that sink in.”
Diaz then turned his attention towards Paul. He called him out for having fought only wrestlers and non-boxers.
“He sucks Jake. You’d get smoked n a real fight tho. You can’t really fight Boxing matches with wrestlers only. Let that sink in.”
Jake Paul faced Ben Askren earlier this year in April. Paul was coming off a brutal KO win over Nate Robinson, and Askren was his first combat sport related opponent.
Askren, was making his debut.
However, just a minute into the first round, the YouTuber knocked Askren out, to go 3-0 up in his professional Boxing career.
Paul will now face Tommy Fury on the 18th of December, 2021. His first-ever opponent who is a Boxer.
