Pavia completed 16 of 20 passes for 252 yards and two touchdowns to slash the tide. Johnny Manziel’s fanboy is now embracing a new journey of fame and opportunities. Do you know what he is up to now?

After beating the top SEC team, Alabama Crimson Tide, Vanderbilt’s quarterback, Diego Pavia, has become the new big thing in the college football world. He is doing all sorts of things to seize this opportunity. He even started his podcast! The very first episode of ‘Air it out with Pavia was released on October 11th, and fans are going crazy over it.

He shared the space with his mates, Eli Stowers, CJ Taylor, and co-host Fluff. While they were candidly talking, they began talking about Jon Jones, the star of the UFC. To that, Pavia went a step ahead and compared him with NFL legends Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes. “It doesn’t matter what he’s doing. He reminds me He doesn’t even get a train. He’s a winner. He wins, regardless. Dude, we can bet on UFC too. I want you to bet. I’m with him. Good. Pat Mahomes in the playoffs. That’s one day I’ll never do you can never, and I’m a Cowboys fan, so it hurts, Tom Brady. I’ll bet against LeBron, though he’s not aware of him.” That’s what Pavia said while chatting with his friends.

Jon Jones is arguably the GOAT of UFC. There’s a reason why he is being mentioned with names like Brady, Mahomes and Lebron- each of them has excelled in their respective sports. Even at 37, Jones can step into the ring and easily make it a nightmarish experience for his opponent. Of course, players like Pavia idolize the journeys of these stars.
