Former UFC fighter Nate Diaz stood steadfast to his brawler reputation as he choked out Logan Paul‘s lookalike on the streets of New Orleans. The MMA fighter was in the stands to support his teammate, Chris Avila, who featured on a Misfits boxing card at the XULA Convention Center. The Stockton Slapper stirred the headlines as he was ejected from the building after throwing a water bottle at the Netflix star, Chase DeMoor. This only kicked off the madness as he ended up unleashing a feud in the streets.

The fans could hear him saying, “WHAT? He just kneed him to the stomach? Is that Logan Paul? He knocked him out? Whoever that is, he knocked him out! He choked him out! His head bounced like a f*cking basketball.”

However, he quickly gauged the differences and discarded the probability of Paul being on the receiving end of a choke. Thus, he added, “He’s way too skinny. Logan Paul is a big motherf***er.”
