After months of waiting, Jake Paul and Nate Diaz fans will finally get to witness the showdown between the two tonight. This fight is going to be a 10 minutes showdown, which is different from the fights both fighters are used to. Paul has fought 8 rounds of matches previously and Diaz has fought 5 rounds of 5 minutes. Thus there is a chance that this fight may just become a battle of attrition between the two. However, a lot of fans are of the consensus that the fight will not go all the way.
There is a high chance of that happening as even the face-off between the duo was heated as well. Paul even stated, “Tomorrow I’m dog walking that b***h! I’m putting him on a leash and I’m sending him back to the cage!”. Thus it becomes highly probable that they both may end up getting in the ring with bad intentions. Moreover, even the undisputed lightweight champion, Devin Haney seems to be of the same opinion.
Haney recently took to social media to state his last-minute predictions for the upcoming bout. Haney wrote, “Jake will KO Nate…”. This statement echoes KSI’s statement yesterday as he also joked about the American rapper Drake betting his money on Diaz. Not only that, even his former trainer also stated that Paul will KO Diaz in the fourth round. Nonetheless, everything will be cleared in an hour or two at most.

Evan added, “I legit don’t see how Nate wins. He’s not winning on points and will definitely not knock out Jake. The only way I see Nate winning in some sort of way is just not getting knocked out.”
