Jake Paul recently announced his comeback to the boxing ring. The Problem Child, however, has rejected a rematch with Nate Diaz but is ready to face him in the Octagon. Here are all the details.
In August, UFC superstar Nate Diaz took on Jake Paul, raking in a substantial payday for what he deemed a relatively straightforward match.
After his one-sided loss to 'The Problem Child,' Jake Paul extended an offer to Diaz for a chance at redemption, proposing a rematch in the MMA setting under the PFL banner.
However, journalist Michael Benson has recently disclosed that their MMA rematch has encountered a setback despite Paul's initial acceptance of the proposal.
As per Benson's tweet, "PFL have now made Jake Paul and Nate Diaz an official offer for an MMA rematch, Jake’s Most Valuable Promotions have stated. They said Jake has accepted this offer, while Nate is calling for a boxing rematch instead."
Nate Diaz is delaying and seeking another boxing rematch, which is surprising given his poor performance in August. This could be because he doesn't want to upset the UFC and Dana White by fighting their rival and boosting their popularity.
