Jake Paul landed a unanimous decision in his favor against Nate Diaz during their fight on August 5, 2023. Almost a year before the bout, both fighters had bad blood between them that was quite evident in their social media posts directed at each other. But when the fight was over, it seemed like both fighters ended up on good terms and had respect for each other. Diaz even called Paul out to an MMA fight. At that time, Paul did not say anything, and many thought that he’d never really accept it.
But a recent development has put up some interesting things in front of the netizens. It seems like Jake Paul did make an offer to Nate Diaz for an MMA fight, and claimed he’s the one who ducked his offer. And the back-and-forth has yet again begun between these two fighters. Let’s see what it’s all about.
Nate Diaz rejected Jake Paul’s offer to fight in the PFL

Jake Paul signed an MMA contract with the PFL and aims to make a ‘fighter-first’ culture in the business of combat sports. As the organization promises to divide the 50-50 revenue in the pay-per-view buys. For that, alongside PFL, the YouTuber-turned-boxer has helped in creating a ‘PFL PPV Super Fight’ division, in which Paul is the first fighter who has been signed. He’s looking forward to having a fight this year.
So, he wants Diaz to be his first fight under PFL, but as it turns out, the Stockton slugger does not have any interest in going towards the direction of that offer. He went on the X app to make a post that had a picture of Diaz clenching Paul in the middle of their fight. He also added that he wants the fight to be undertaken by his promotional banner, and he clearly stated that he doesn’t want it to be conducted by PFL.

After some time, Jake Paul also made a post where he made a statement that Diaz’s promotion was taught how to organize a big event. He also wrote, “We offered you $10 million to fight me in @PFLMMA plus PPV.” But as it turns out, it wasn’t enough for Diaz. So Paul stated, “I dog walked you b**ch.” Then advised him to go back to the UFC, where he can actually do something valuable under somebody’s ownership.
I just made ur little half-ass promotion. I just taught u & ur half-ass team how to run a major event. Ur just trying to latch on. We offered you $10 million to fight me in @PFLMMA plus PPV. But you don’t want it because you scared to lose. And I dog walked you bitch. So go back…

After all the remarks, Diaz couldn’t sit silently and made a series of posts replying to the Ohio native.

After Paul’s harsh remarks, he made another post, where he shared a snippet of the moment when Diaz got knocked down by Jake Paul in the fifth round. He also captioned the video, writing, “Reality“. Diaz replied to this by asking what would have Paul done if they were engaging in a street fight. The former UFC fighter stated that he would be slaughtered if it was a real fight and Paul would’ve been “f**ked up“.

After this Diaz posted a compilation of Paul taking hits from Diaz’s punches, and even getting a bit stunned at times. He wrote above the video, “Sets on sets“.

Besides this, he also claimed that he was the winner of the boxing fight. And Jake Paul has already lost in the bout, so it doesn’t matter at this point. Paul should fight himself instead.
