UFC star Nate Diaz has engaged in verbal warfare with two notable names in the fight game, namely Jake Paul and Ben Askren. Chiefly, what started off as a quip by Diaz targeted Paul primarily, turned into Ben Askren challenging Nate Diaz to a fight.

This is somewhat dramatic considering Ben Askren retired in October 2019 and hasn’t fought in MMA since then. However, he now wants to be the last fight on Nate Diaz’s existing UFC contract.

The exchange kicked off with Nate Diaz who responded to an article talking about Jake Paul vs Ben Askren. From there, things escalated once Jake Paul returned fire and trolled Nate Diaz for the losses he’s suffered in MMA.

Nate Diaz isn’t one to keep quiet and decided to double down on his verbal assault on Ben Askren and Jake Paul. ‘Funky’ Ben always like a good feud and he quickly jumped in expressing an interest to fight Nate Diaz. He went so far as to say that he would be willing to enter the USADA pool right away in order to make the fight happen.

It’s clear that Ben Askren isn’t playing around as he once more made the claim that he would make light work of Diaz. The verbal warfare amongst these talented fighters has certainly left fans excited for them to cross paths in the future.
