UFC welterweight superstar Nate Diaz took a shot at Jake Paul, telling the YouTuber-turned-boxer that “you can’t really fight.” Diaz and Paul have been going back-and-forth on social media and in interviews for the last little while, so it should come as no surprise to anyone that they continued to take shots this week. It all came after Diaz responded to an article about Paul, where his former opponent Ben Askren gave him credit for being a good boxer. Diaz saw the comments and replied right away, telling him that these comments are coming from a retired wrestler who can’t box, and therefore they don’t mean anything. That led to Paul then returning fire by telling Diaz that he has a bunch of losses on his resume, and then Diaz took a shot at Paul.

Tyron Woodley has reacted after Jake Paul announced that he has moved on from a potential rematch with the former UFC champion. Paul defeated Woodley via split decision in a high-profile boxing match which took place this past August in Cleveland. It was a competitive contest, with ‘The Chosen One’ hurting the YouTube sensation and nearly earning a knockdown. However, Jake Paul would ultimately land the better volume of strikes throughout the course of the fight and walked away with the split decision victory.

Tommy and Tyson Fury sent a warning to YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul ahead of their upcoming fight, announcing that “Camp Sparta has begun!” Tommy Fury steps into the ring next month when he takes on Paul in what is likely going to be the toughest fight of Paul’s boxing career. Although Paul does have wins over the likes of former UFC fighters Tyron Woodley and Ben Askren on his resume, Fury is an actual boxer so this would be a much bigger win if he gets it. Of course, that isn’t going to be easy to do, because Fury is one heck of a boxer himself. Not only is he young and talented, but he is also brothers with Tyson Fury, who is one of the best boxers in the world. So Paul is going to have an uphill climb, and the Furys want to let him know that.

UFC Hall of Famer Michael Bisping shared his thoughts on the upcoming Logan Paul vs. Mike Tyson exhibition boxing match. It was recently announced that Paul would be fighting Tyson in an exhibition boxing match set for early 2022. For Paul, it will be his second straight high-profile boxing match against a legend of the sport following an exhibition fight with Floyd Mayweather earlier this year. There were no judges for that fight since it was an exhibition bout, but Paul would have lost the fight had there been scorecards. However, the fact that Paul was able to go the distance with Mayweather was impressive in its own right. But a guy like Tyson who is bigger and who hits harder is a completely different task and Paul is likely well aware of the power difference.
