“Diaz vs. Paul: The Battle of Wills Continues as Diaz Points Finger at ‘Problem Child’!”
In the arena of combat sports, words hold as much weight as punches, and Nate Diaz is not one to pull them. Fresh off his contentious boxing match against Jake Paul, Diaz continues to stir the pot, this time pointing fingers squarely at his erstwhile opponent for his lack of motivation. In a candid interview with FightHub TV, Diaz doubled down on his claim that he emerged victorious in their bout, brushing off the judges’ decision and offering a scathing assessment of Paul’s impact on his psyche.
“That’s the biggest I’ve ever been, the f*cking lazy I ever was. And it wasn’t as hard; he wasn’t scary enough. So, it was not hard enough to give a f*ck about. I still think I win,” said Diaz.
“I still think the last two rounds out of the whole fight… and then sh*t done deal, and it got really easy.”
Diaz’s disdain for Paul’s perceived lack of intimidation was palpable as he recounted the events leading up to their showdown. Despite entering the ring in less-than-optimal shape, Diaz maintains that Paul failed to instill the fear necessary to elevate the bout to the level of challenge he craves. “That’s the biggest I’ve ever been, the fcking lazy I ever was. And it wasn’t as hard; he wasn’t scary enough. So, it was not hard enough to give a fck about. I still think I win,” Diaz asserted, his words laced with a mixture of defiance and frustration.
“I think that was the easiest fight I ever had,” he quipped.
While Diaz’s performance in the ring may have defied expectations, with many anticipating a one-sided affair in favor of Paul, the Stockton native remains steadfast in his belief that victory was within his grasp. Even as he found himself knocked down in the fifth round, Diaz remains unperturbed, confident that he had the upper hand for the majority of the match. “I still think the last two rounds out of the whole fight… and then sh*t done deal, and it got really easy,” he quipped, his trademark swagger undiminished by defeat.
But for Diaz, the saga is far from over. With his sights set on a rematch with Paul, this time within the confines of the octagon, Diaz is eager to settle the score once and for all. Set to face off against Miami-based boxer Jorge Masvidal on June 1 at the Kia Forum, Diaz remains undeterred by the prospect of a new opponent, fueled by the promise of redemption against Paul.
“For the record: Jake Paul will not be boxing Nate Diaz again.” “Nate Diaz and Jake Paul have received an offer from @PFLMMA to rematch in MMA in the SmartCage. Jake Paul has accepted the offer,” the post further read.
