YouTube star Jake Paul (6-1, 4 KOs) took the boxing world by storm when he decided to turn pro and challenge multiple former UFC fighters in the ring. Paul never sought out the UFC stars but they all challenged him and believed he was a joke trying to box so he called them out and beat each one of them. Tonight he will continue the trend of feasting on former UFC stars when he takes on Nate Diaz in a 10-round fight in the 185-pound division.
Nate Diaz believes his pressure fighting boxing style will give Paul fits, he will finally be able to test out his boxing skills after years of fighting in the cage. Diaz who will be making his pro boxing debut against Paul, has sparred many rounds with professional boxers and top amateurs, he is best known for being one of the chief sparring partners of former boxing world champion and Olympic gold medalist Andre Ward.
