The monumental clash between Jake Paul and Nate Diaz is finally over. The bout was an entertaining spectacle for combat sports lovers. After a ten-round battle, ‘The Problem Child’ made sure that he achieved a unanimous decision victory against the ex-UFC fighter. One of the highlights of the bout was Diaz trapping Paul in a guillotine choke in the tenth round, which is not allowed in a boxing match. However, the fans thoroughly enjoyed the moment when Paul found it hard to handle the Stockton native. Soon afterward, the referee came running to separate Diaz from choking Paul.

This act from the 38-year-old tempted ‘The Problem Child’ to decide on an MMA match against Diaz. Paul claimed that if it were an MMA match, he would have easily defeated Diaz through countermoves. The YouTuber-turned-boxer was not making a casual comment, as his later actions proved he was dead serious. Now, the 26-year-old has come forward with a perfect timeline for their MMA clash.

After posting an image from the bout between him and Diaz, Paul wrote, “Give me 6 months and I’m making him tap.“
