I have a feeling that this is just a hype about Jake Paul but according to the odds they aren't for Jake Paul. It is also interesting though since Nate Diaz wasn't really a boxer but a UFC fighter it could be a big adjustment for him thus I don't count it as an advantage for Paul since I haven't seen him a while if his boxing style is improving. The ring will tell us that during the fight and I'm excited to see how Paul would move inside the ring. I thought this guy would be a meme for boxing but it seems like someone is riding with his career.

We never know their true intentions about this fight but I agree that this is just totally for the sake of money. Maybe Nate gets cannot be rejected the offer with this one and he thinks he won't gonna lose anything if he accepts the offer. I think so too because there are already lots of fighters that fought Jake Paul and their careers and popularity are not affected in any sort of harm. Maybe this is his chance to further expand his popularity and get some more offers after he showed his performance in this fight. I do agree that, whatever the offer was, it surely was for their own advantage.

Nate prefers to block strikes with faces, rather than with gloves or shoulder Cheesy

I think we would get an early stoppage due to bruises that is gonna cover Nate eyes, because in boxing we dont often see sea of blood on boxers faces. Either ref stops a fight to let doctors check open wound and try to close it, or between rounds those would are closed. Also it seems that such close to professional fights / semi exhibition does not allow a lot of blood due to young audience (just my assumption).

It is true that Nate Diaz absorbs more strikes with small gloves in MMA and even if you spar with them you tend to get punched in the face as you cannot really block all the punches with the small gloves but they are Boxing with proper bigger gloves and he will be able to defend them and with enough padding and bigger gloves we might not see him bleed like he used to do in MMA.

One thing is certain, Nate Diaz will not gas out like the rest of the MMA fighters and it is difficult to knock him out as he has a strong chin.

I was being serious about expecting Nate Diaz to be absolutely covered in blood during this fight. If you've watched him fight in the UFC you know that his face is literally so full of scar tissue that one punch sends blood gushing from everywhere. I literally think that this fight is going to be called early because Nate isn't going to be able to see through all the blood dripping down his face. I don't think Jake is a better fighter and I'm sure in any other type of fight other than a straight boxing match Nate wins. However, with those gloves and rules, I'm expecting this fight to be called and Jake given the W.

Lol, that is true. Nate prefers to block strikes with faces, rather than with gloves or shoulder Cheesy

Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅

We all know Diaz isn't got much left to be able to face the Young Jake, plus the fact that he lost to Tommy few weeks ago... Jake can't let in.
I've seen the odds on atleast - three different casinos and either a single point makes the difference. Now someone said something about fighting a retired MMA fighter -- c'monnn, I mean there's no difference there... Fighting a retired MMA fighter doesn't make you an MMA champ dude,... secondly, it doesn't mean you can't pull through too... I understand Jake hasn't got much of an experience just yet - as he's only begining his career... I mean, lol ..this dude's been only an influencer on the net so I'd bet on the old DIAZ... c'monnn

I already put money on Jake Paul in a bet with a friend who seems to think Nate Diaz is going to be able to jump sports and compete. I personally never considered Nate a striker, so I think he’ll be covered in blood by the end of the night. MMA fight, Nate chokes him out in under a minute. Boxing though? My money is on Jake and it feels safe.

I will tail that.
I am a big fan of Nate Diaz in MMA but I also realize he is not the guy who throws a lot of punches, he relies on his strong chin and toughness so he will be like a sandbag here again Jake Paul. "Jabs." That is where Paul will win and the fight goes until round 8, Diaz will probably lose in the score. That's if no one gets knocked out unless Nate will have a chance to land a lucky blow.
I also am doubting the resistance of Diaz in an 8-rounder. He might lack the stamina to go on and will just stand in the ring just to finish the fight.
Plus, Paul will be focused on winning after his recent defeat.

That's what exactly happens when Mcgregor fought Mayweather the lack of stamina, boxers' training is very different they trained to last 10 or 12 rounders and they are good at pacing and reserving their strength Jake already knows how to do this he knows where to pick the round where he will be aggressive and rounds where he will reserve his energy, I don't think Nate can keep with that he should have a strong belly because Jake is going to target that to slow down his movement he cannot rely on kicks or grappling, to stop Jake Paul attack.

well, let's see once inside the ring. but paul seems to have the advantage here. and bookies are already seeing that giving him the favourite on this match. also, paul has the motivation to win on this one because he lost his last fight.
when it comes to nate diaz, for sure he has seen paul's fights already so he knows where and when to attack him. but the stamina, i can give this aspect to paul's advantage.

Wow. I'm hyped. I've gotta give it to Jake as this is no easy fight and might even be tougher than Tommy Fury if I'm being honest.

I would have loved to see him fight another boxer and was hoping he'd fight another boxer again, but then again, there is more money coming in when fighting a popular retired MMA fighter than fighting a Boxer who isn't as well-known and as popular as Nate Diaz. that being said, I'm curious who'll win this fight.

here is the odds posted on duelbits, seems like they are the same/similar as other sportsbooks.

I am hyped too, the fight has been anticipated for quite a while and it's nice that it's finally coming. To be honest I wish the fight would have happened sooner, Nate is already 38 who hasn't been so active anymore. The big age difference is definitely an issue but I think Nate will stand his ground. Again it's going to be a boxing match which is a big disadvantage for all the MMA fighters. I thought that Jake Paul was already training Jiu Jitsu and would start competing in the octagon. It's one thing to beat the MMA professionals in boxing and something completely different in a UFC setup. It would be awesome to see a rematch with Anderson Silva in the octagon. But let's focus on the Nate Diaz match first, with - 270 Jake Paul seems to be a strong favourite, at such odds I am going to bet on Nate Diaz.

Jake doesn't have the balls to be in UFC fight. There is just too many attack point to block while in boxing ha don't have to worry that he'd be taken down. The odds will be on Nate if this will be an MMA match.

But Jake prefers boxing since he has the edge and he is also the one organizing his own event. Exhibition matches are kind of bread and butter for Jake which Diaz vs Logan is like one exhibition fight.

I think he has the balls, he just doesn’t have the skills. Boxing is something that is much easier to do when you’ve been staying in good shape. Strength and size goes a long way to make up for lack of technique. MMA, not so much. You need to train multiple fight styles from the time you’re young to be able to compete. It’s a totally different level.

Isnt every fighter has a motivation to win? Cheesy

His motivation would better be to avenge Tommy Fury, than to fight another former UFC fighter aka earning money. His previous fight against Fury sold 775k PPV. Wonder how much gonna be sold against one of the main welterweight stars. Anyway, I foresee a knockout in this fight. Not because of lack of Nates stamina, Jakes boxing skills and lack of same skills from Nate, but because Nate loves to keep his hands low.

I am not a big fan of boxing compared to MMA fights. So Im only aware of how strong Nate Diaz is when it comes to resisting punches and come backs so i would say that If he can withstand Jake's punches for at least two rounds there is a good chance he could win. Nate is a true warrior in my eyes as I have watched him fight until his last breath in all the fights I have seen. On the other hand I cannot make an accurate judgment about Jake's strength and fighting style since I haven't watched many of his fights except for the last one he lost against Tommy Fury.
If I were to bet on this fight I would take the risk and place my money on Nate Diaz, as the potential returns are much better

Weathering a boxer's punches will seriously not be enough for somebody who have been training all his life about MMA, stamina will be a big factor on this fight if an MMA fighter and a boxer will fight in a ring, surely the advantage will go for the boxer as it's his forte while the MMA fighter will have a lot of trouble because he is not trained to last up to 12 long rounds.

Most of the time, these boxers will just buy some time until they come into the late rounds where the MMA fighter doesn't have enough stamina to keep up with the boxer's punches. MMA fighter's only chance to defeat a boxer inside the ring is to settle the fight as early as they could because the advantage won't on their side once the fight drags longer.

But that aint a fully professional fight. There are not going to be 12 rounds. It is going to be 8 round max. And as to stamina, Nate Diaz has experience of fighting 5*5min fights. That is 25 minutes of action. And I dont know what is more exhausting - throwing punches for 8*3min rounds, or trying to throw back a 80kg guy that lays on you, throw punches and try to submit you.

Your post can be applied to heavyweights, guys who fight for air more than against opponents in late rounds, but Jake isnt a heavyweight, not even like a cruiserweight imho. I would not say that stamina is going to be a major factor in this fight.

That is actually right. The training and discipline of both sports are entirely different. Boxers will have better stamina and will last longer for the late rounds but MMA fighters will probably have a stronger striking power. But since Nate Diaz is not really a good boxer but is more trained in BJJ, he probably will have a hard time dealing with Jake Paul. Precision punches will have a better result here than just powerful strikes. I wonder how the camp of Nate Diaz will plan on defeating Jake Paul in this match-up. They have a few months to prepare for this.

Just like we thought that Anderson Silva can defeat Jake Paul because he already got the experience advantage and probably IQ as well because he's already accustomed to the boxing sport unlike Nate Diaz who haven't have any history professional boxing bouts. But I like the idea that Nate Diaz somehow possess a threat against Jake Paul because the man is not a glass jaw and he's not that slow learner, so maybe he got some decent chances.

Silva is too old and he was slow during the fight against Paul at that time, so that's make Paul can beat Silva. However with the lost on Paul's last fight, we should bet carefully because he's no longer undefeated and lose might be happen in his future fight. Nate Diaz isn't a puncher in MMA and he don't have any boxing fight, I think this should be an easy fight for Paul.

It's too good too see Nate Diaz can win for his first fight in boxing against a boxer which have 7 fights.

Either way, we still should be careful especially if we decide to bet on this fight. Who knows, Nate Diaz could probably suit well in this industry and defeating Jake Paul will be a good opportunity for him to have himself a good welcome in this sport that he is now on. Both fighters got a lot of time to prepare, maybe Nate Diaz got some good aces up on his sleeve, anyway, I'm looking forward for a good fight and not just a mere money fight.

Paul for sure wanted to redeem from his last fight, so more then likely, he will come prepared for this fight. that's also a lot of preparation for both camps. so either nate diaz is also prepared or not. based from the early odds, paul is the favourite here making diaz the underdog. paul has a good ko percentage but don't know if he can ko diaz on this match.
maybe few weeks before the fight we will see how prep both camps are. and see the odds if they will change sides or not.
