While Jake Paul has been relentless with personal attacks and provoking insults, Nate Diaz has kept his composure, refusing to be drawn into the war of words. However, things escalated dramatically during their recent presser when both fighters came face to face.

As they locked eyes, tensions reached a boiling point, leading to a fierce altercation between their respective teams. The dust settled, but not without casualties, as one individual reportedly ended up in the hospital after the brawl.

In a recent video posted on his YouTube channel, Jake Paul opened up about the aftermath of the scuffle. Shockingly, he revealed that Nate Diaz’s team is now seeking legal recourse, intending to sue him and his team for their involvement in the altercation.

Speaking over the phone, Paul couldn’t contain his disdain, referring to Diaz’s team as “b*ch-made wannabe gangsters.” Clearly upset by the legal action taken against him, he conveyed his frustration, “They’re already trying to send lawyers? [Yes, Nate’s legal representation]. Bchass wannabe gangsters… The guy who swung first on Nate’s team, who initiated the brawl, got pieced up and needs stitches… Now they’re trying to claim assault.”

The situation is now a legal battle, adding a whole new dimension to the already intense rivalry between the two fighters. Fans are eagerly waiting to see how this development will affect the upcoming match, with emotions running high and animosity between the two camps at an all-time high.

According to our excavation, the teammate of Diaz who swung first is none other than Nick Diaz Academy’s boxing coach Rudy Hernandez. Hernandez is a longtime teamate of Diaz and coaches boxing at the NDA.

Hernandez accompanied Diaz at the UFC 263 official weigh-ins when the Stockton native when he fought Leon Edwards.
